520 $a This dissertation examines Eurasianist political and philosophical ideas in literary texts today, as well as their literary predecessors from the Silver Age and the early Soviet period. It traces the roots of Eurasianist-inspired literature back to Russian philosophical thought of the nineteenth century as well as the classical emigre Eurasianism of the 1920s.
520 $a Chapter 1 traces the formation of different concepts of Russian identity that took shape in the nineteenth century and formed the trajectory of the Eurasianist ideology. Chapter 2 offers a detailed analysis of Eurasianist presentiments in the works of the Symbolists and the Futurist Velimir Khlebnikov. In response to Vladimir Solov'ev's apocalyptic fear of "the yellow peril," poets and writers started to incorporate elements of Eastern nomadic culture into their vision of Russian identity. This chapter traces these ideas in the "Scythian" poems of Valerii Briusov and Alexandr Blok, and in Khlebnikov's proto-Eurasianist essays and narrative poems.
520 $a Early Soviet fiction developed Eurasianist ideas simultaneously with but isolated from the Russian emigre intellectuals. Chapter 3 explores this phenomenon focusing on the work of Boris Pil'niak. The Soviet Union partly realized the Eurasianist dream of creating a powerful empire, strengthening Russian influence over the Asian territories and promoting cooperation of peoples of different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Writing during this period, Pil'niak weaves together historical fact and Scythian myth to create works of enormous ideological and imaginative complexity.
520 $a Chapters 4 and 5 focus on post-1991 fiction, exposing a resurgence of Eurasianist ideas in the post-Soviet period. Eurasianist thought gained popularity both among the governing parties, and among intellectuals, eventually seeping into the literary world. This trend is noticeable in the prose of Pavel Krusanov and Vladimir Sorokin. Chapter 4 establishes literary appropriations of Eurasianist ideas in Krusanov's "imperial" prose. It advances the argument that Eurasianist themes have been conducive to the proliferation of the alternative history genre in contemporary Russian prose, and brought elements of magical realism into Krusanov's writing. Chapter 5 expands the argument about this generic transformation tracing a shift in Sorokin's writing from formal postmodernist experiments to an ideologically-driven pseudo-realist parody of Eurasianism.
