A Second Thought About the Soviet Past

[Elena Gapova]

Dear all,

I am fantasizing about a panel tentatively titled *"A Second Thought About
the Soviet Past: Retrointellectualism..." *It is supposed to focus on
post-Soviet memoires (not diaries, but memoires (largely) written and
published after 1991) by writers/literati/humanitarian intellectuals who
"had a name" during the Soviet times.

My own paper is going to focus on memoires by Belarusian writers who had
pan-Soviet fame Vasyl' Bykau (Bykov) *"Dolgaya daroga damou*" ("A Long Road
to Home", 2003, it was also published in Russian translation)  and Ales'
Adamovich ("Vixi", 1994).

Ideally, I am looking for co-contributors who would focus on the memoires
of Chingiz Aitmatov, on "Potstrochnik" by Liliana Lungina, on  memoires by
Ukrainian  (if such were published) and other writers/literati.
