Lecturer of Russian Dasha Prykhodko will be teaching RUSS 306D 921 online for Summer 2020 Term 2.

Students will read a number of shorter salient works by Pushkin, Gogol, Lermontov, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Leskov and Chekhov, and see if their contemplations about human weaknesses and vices are relevant to our present day.
