The Columbia literary history of Eastern Europe since 1945

Descripción

"Harold B. Segel, a longtime scholar of Slavic literatures and of comparative literature, writes a clear, concise, and balanced history of Eastern European literature. Segel not only examines the literary response to the quasi-colonial oppression that stretched across Eastern Europe between 1945 and 1991 hut also details the impact of the downfall of communism and the way in which the challenges of the postcommunist period are being met."--Jacket.
