Through centuries of oppression under the Austro-Hungarian and Soviet empires, they have struggled to preserve their culture and identity. Rusyn literature, reflecting various national influences and written in several linguistic variants, has historically been a response to social conditions, an affirmation of identity, and a strategy to ensure national survival. In this first English-language study of Rusyn literature, Elaine Rusinko looks at the literary history of Subcarpathia from the perspective of cultural studies and postcolonial theory, presenting Rusyn literature as a process of continual negotiation among states, religions, and languages, resulting in a characteristic hybridity that has made it difficult to classify Rusyn literature in traditional literary scholarship. Rusinko traces Rusyn literature from its emergence in the sixteenth century, through the national awakening of the mid-nineteenth century and its struggle for survival under Hungarian oppression, to its renaissance in inter-war Czechoslovakia. She argues that Rusyn literature provides an acute illustration of the constructedness of national identity, and has prefigured international postmodern culture with its emphasis on border-crossings, intersecting influences, and liminal spaces. With extracts from Rusyn texts never before available in English, Rusinko's study creates an entirely new perspective on Rusyn literature that rescues it from the clichés of Soviet dominated critical theory and makes an important contribution to Slavic studies in particular and post-colonial critical studies in general. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Carpatho-Rusyn literature|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh96007027|xHistory and criticism.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001187 650 0 Carpatho-Rusyns|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh94005758|xEthnic identity.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005645 650 0 Ethnicity in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh94004078 650 7 Carpatho-Rusyn literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/847808 650 7 Carpatho-Rusyns|xEthnic identity.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/847812 650 7 Carpatho-Rusyns.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 847811 650 7 Ethnicity in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/916067 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aRusinko, Elaine.|tStraddling borders. |dToronto ; Buffalo : University of Toronto Press, ©2003 |z9780802037114|w(DLC) 2003273438|w(OCoLC)51275046 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=468492|zOnline eBook.
