Publications Inspired by the Russian Art & Culture Group
The workshops of the Russian Art and Culture Group are always wonderful occasions to listen to interesting presentations and the most recent scholarship. Therefore, we aim to publish the results of these workshops.
However, instead of publishing the mere workshop papers, we prefer to combine articles of junior and senior researchers in edited volumes on specific topics. These are our first two joint publications.
“Special issue: Artistic Communities and Educational Approaches in Nineteenth- and Early Twentieth-Century Russia,” Russian History 46, no. 4 (2019), guest issue edited by Ludmila Piters-Hofmann and Isabel Wünsche.
