"What to Read?": the National Centre RUSSIA invites guests to the next Literary Club meeting
Women’s literature as a cultural phenomenon. What books fascinated female readers in different centuries, how women’s literature has evolved and what makes this tradition unique. These and other topics will be discussed on 20 March at the Literary Club meeting at the National Centre RUSSIA.
The discussion will be moderated by Alexei Chesnakov, Head of the Academic Council of the Centre for Political Conjuncture, author of the Telegram channel "Chesnakov.Library" and Professor at the Higher School of Economics. His interlocutors will be Natalia Urbanskaya, writer, member of the Federation of Cultural and Arts Figures and lecturer at the Russian society Znanie, and Yelena Afonina, Candidate of Philological Sciences, literary scholar, writer and literary editor.
The experts will discuss what the phrases "a woman written by a man" and "a woman written by a woman" mean. Is it true that psychological literature has become the new women’s classic? Participants will explain how the role of women in literature has evolved alongside changes in society and why the female image in Russia has always been more than just a literary character.
The Literary Club meeting will take place in the press events hall of Pavilion No. 7 at the National Centre RUSSIA. The event begins at 19:00. Admission is free with prior registration.
