This Oxford Handbook brings together top specialists in Russian literature to treat the Russian novel from the late 18th to the 21st century, using a range of interpretive perspectives. We treat well-known works and authors but also explore the much broader tradition of the Russian novel up to the present. The essays in the Handbook provide cultural and historical perspectives on the Russian novel, as well as showcasing emergent modes of analysis, including postcolonialism, ecocriticism, and posthumanism. We consider the Russian novel not only within Russia itself, but in the world, beginning with the first translations of novels from Russian to French and English in the late nineteenth century, and eventually to numerous other languages and cultural contexts. We treat Russophone novels by émigré writers, first in European capitals during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, then extending more recently to the U.S., Israel, and beyond. This Handbook also considers the political and cultural significance of Russophone novels within the independent states that had been territories of the former Soviet Union and used Russian as a compulsory lingua franca"--
