RUSS 43.01 Media Research, Creative Writing, and Translation Workshop
This class will be devoted to collaborative research, writing, and translation projects. Using authentic Russian-language sources, from scholarly articles to social media networks, the students will conduct research for a “case study” which is of major significance in contemporary Russia and write a one-act play, entirely in Russian, in the genre of documentary drama. The students will then translate their play into English and present a staged reading of it at the end of term.
