    Will the Russian and Jewish nations ever achieve true reconciliation? Why is there such disparity in the interpretations of Russo-Jewish history? Nobel Laureate Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn has focused on these and other thorny questions surrounding Russia's Jewish Question for the last ten years, culminating in a two-volume historical essay that is among his final literary offerings: Two Hundred Years Together. In this essay, Solzhenitsyn seeks to elucidate Judeo-Russian relations while also promoting mutual healing between the two nationalities, but the polarized reception of Solzhenitsyn's work reflects the passionate sentiments of Jews and Russians alike. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and the Modern Russo-Jewish Question puts Two Hundred Years Together within the context of anti-Semitism, nationalism, Russian literature, and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's prolific, influential life. Nathan Larson argues that as a writer, political thinker, and religious voice, Solzhenitsyn symbolizes Russia's historically ambivalent relationship vis-à-vis the Jewish nation List of Contents -- Potrait of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn -- I Introduction -- II A Concise Biography of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn -- III Judeophobia and the Jewish Question -- IV Anti-Semitic Accusation against Solzhenitsyn -- V Russian Nationalism -- The Black Hundred -- National Bolshevism -- Память -- Solzhenitsyn's Unique Nationalism -- VI The Jewish Question in Russian Literature -- Gogol -- Dostoevsky -- Chekhov -- Pasternak -- VII The Critics respond to Solzhenitsyn's Jewish Character Sketches -- Bogrov juxtaposed against Stolypin -- Parvus as a Personification of Evil -- Benevolent Jewish Characters -- VIII The Political Jewish Question in Post-Soviet Russia -- The New Oligarchy -- IX Евреи в СССР и в будущей Pоссии -- X Двести лет вместе -- A Brief Exegesis of Two Hundred Years Together, part II -- Repentance -- Assimilation -- XI The Protocols of the Elders of Zion -- XII The Ambivalence of Solzhenitsyn -- XIII Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Index

    Alexander Solzhenitsyn was one of the Cold War's most iconic writers. This book offers an in-depth analysis of his reception in the US, UK, and Germany before and after 1991. Elisa Kriza skillfully explores how Solzhenitsyn's work can be understood with the paradigm of witness literature and uncovers the dynamics behind the politicized reception of his writing.From the mid-1980s onwards, Solzhenitsyn's popularity dwindled—was this for ideological reasons? What about the rumors linking him with Russian nationalism? This study does not shy away from stretching beyond anti-communism and touching more contentious subjects—such as anti-feminism, anti-Semitism, and revisionism—in Solzhenitsyn's work and reception.Bringing Solzhenitsyn back from his 'critical exile' and redefining his work as memory culture, Kriza's book is a crucial scholarly intervention, unveiling the mechanism that can transform a controversial figure into a moral icon Cover -- Contents -- Foreword -- Acknowledgements -- 1.
