Chronologically arranged chapters explain how nineteenth-century ideas about energy informed realist novels and paintings; how the poetics of energy defined pre-Revolutionary and Stalinist utopianism; and how fossil fuels, electricity, and nuclear fission generated distinct aesthetic features in Imperial Russian, Soviet, and post-Soviet literature, cinema, and landscape. The volumes concentration on Russia responds to a clear need to understand the role the country plays in social, political, and economic processes endangering life on Earth today. The cultural dimension of Russias efforts at energy dominance deserves increased scholarly attention not only in its own right, but also because it directly affects global energy policy. As the contributors to this volume argue, the nationally inflected cultural myths that underlie human engagements with energy have been highly consequential in the Anthropocene. Jillian Porter is Associate Professor in the Department of Germanic and Slavic Languages and Literatures at the University of Colorado Boulder, USA. She is the author of Economies of Feeling: Russian Literature under Nicholas I (2017) and has published essays on money, commodities, and the queue in Russian and Soviet literature and cinema. Maya Vinokour is Assistant Professor in the Department of Russian and Slavic Studies at New York University, USA. She studies Stalinist labor culture, late-Soviet science fiction, and post-Soviet media. 001463185 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001463185 650_0 $$aPower resources$$xSocial aspects$$zRussia. 001463185 650_0 $$aPower resources$$xSocial aspects$$zSoviet Union. 001463185 650_0 $$aPower (Mechanics) in art. 001463185 650_0 $$aWork in literature. 001463185 650_0 $$aWork in art. 001463185 651_0 $$aRussia$$xCivilization$$y1801-1917. 001463185 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001463185 7001_ $$aPorter, Jillian,$$eeditor. 001463185 7001_ $$aVinokour, Maya,$$eeditor.$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000498208431 001463185 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tEnergy culture.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2022$$z9783031143199$$w(OCoLC)1346317555 001463185 830_0 $$aLiteratures, cultures, and the environment. 001463185 852__ $$bebk 001463185 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-14320-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001463185 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1463185$$pGLOBAL_SET 001463185 980__ $$aBIB 001463185 980__ $$aEBOOK 001463185 982__ $$aEbook 001463185 983__ $$aOnline 001463185 994__ $$a92$$bISE
