商品描述

This open access book examines how Indigenous authors from the Soviet North reflect the impact of Soviet settler colonialism on Indigenous communities in the region through literary engagement with human-animal relations. Careful analyses of works by Iurii Rytkheu (Chukchi), Anna Nerkagi (Nenets), and Eremei Aipin (Khanty) address the authors' responses to Soviet colonialism and forced assimilation, as well as the ways in which these processes altered Indigenous cultures and conceptualizations of nature and non-human animals.

The book situates Indigenous authors and their texts within the cultural, political, and ideological context of the Soviet Union, while simultaneously drawing on a broad array of theoretical frameworks - posthumanism, new materialism, and postcolonial criticism - to guide its analysis. The wealth of theoretical perspectives makes the book of interest to scholars and students in Soviet literary studies, Russian and Eurasian studies, Indigenous studies, environmental humanities, human-animal studies, and Arctic Studies.

In the wake of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and the emerged call to decolonize Russian and Eurasian studies, Human-Animal Relations in the Indigenous Literatures of the Soviet North offers a timely and necessary re-evaluation of Russia's colonial history in the Arctic region.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本開放存取的書籍探討了來自蘇聯北方的原住民作家如何通過與人類-動物關係的文學互動,反映蘇聯殖民者對該地區原住民社群的影響。對於Iurii Rytkheu(楚克奇族)、Anna Nerkagi(涅涅茨族)和Eremei Aipin(漢特族)作品的仔細分析,探討了這些作家對蘇聯殖民主義和強迫同化的回應,以及這些過程如何改變了原住民文化和對自然及非人類動物的概念化。

本書將原住民作家及其文本置於蘇聯的文化、政治和意識形態背景中,同時借鑒廣泛的理論框架——後人類主義、新物質主義和後殖民批評——來指導其分析。豐富的理論視角使本書對於蘇聯文學研究、俄羅斯與歐亞研究、原住民研究、環境人文學、人類-動物研究以及北極研究的學者和學生都具有吸引力。

在俄羅斯全面入侵烏克蘭之後,對俄羅斯和歐亞研究去殖民化的呼聲日益高漲,《蘇聯北方原住民文學中的人類-動物關係》提供了對俄羅斯在北極地區殖民歷史的及時且必要的重新評估。
