Jews in Russian Literature after the October Revolution: Writers and Artists between Hope and Apostasy - Cambridge Studies in Russian Literature
Sicher, Efraim (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel)
This study shows how four famous Jews writing in Russian in the early Soviet period attempted to resolve the conflict between their cultural identity and their place in Revolutionary Russia. Babel, Mandelstam, Pasternak and Ehrenburg struggled to form creative selves out of the contradictions of origins, outlook, and social or ideological pressures.
