Traduzione del titolo in italiano: "Antropogonia sovietica. Module per gli studenti di laurea specialistica dell'Università di Roma La Sapienza". Abstract in inglese: Soviet heroes (module for the students of a second-level graduation course at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”) The module analysed soviet culture as a multimedia hypertext having as its core the cult of heroes and their deeds. Starting from representations in propaganda, literature, music, painting, architecture, and everyday sign systems, the characteristics of the soviet hero were analysed in a historical perspective along with those of the soviet man. The students were led to understand different forms of creation, preservation, transposition and reproduction of heroic myths through the identification of several ‘ideal types’ of soviet man – such as the revolutionary, the civil war hero, the “real communist”, the “Father of the People”, the “Hero of work”, the “Pioneer-Hero”, the “Hero of the Soviet Union” – and their antagonists – the bourgeois, the “white guard”, the kulak, the enemy of the people, the spy, the cosmopolitan, the dissident. Particular attention was given to the different institutional phases of a man’s life (from the junior communist-pioneer, to the Komsomolets, to the adult communist) and to moments of complete juxtaposition between real and ideal, i.e. moments when the superhuman quality of the soviet man and the revolution as an anthropological project manifest themselves.

Abstract

Traduzione del titolo in italiano: "Antropogonia sovietica. Module per gli studenti di laurea specialistica dell'Università di Roma La Sapienza". Abstract in inglese: Soviet heroes (module for the students of a second-level graduation course at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”) The module analysed soviet culture as a multimedia hypertext having as its core the cult of heroes and their deeds. Starting from representations in propaganda, literature, music, painting, architecture, and everyday sign systems, the characteristics of the soviet hero were analysed in a historical perspective along with those of the soviet man. The students were led to understand different forms of creation, preservation, transposition and reproduction of heroic myths through the identification of several ‘ideal types’ of soviet man – such as the revolutionary, the civil war hero, the “real communist”, the “Father of the People”, the “Hero of work”, the “Pioneer-Hero”, the “Hero of the Soviet Union” – and their antagonists – the bourgeois, the “white guard”, the kulak, the enemy of the people, the spy, the cosmopolitan, the dissident. Particular attention was given to the different institutional phases of a man’s life (from the junior communist-pioneer, to the Komsomolets, to the adult communist) and to moments of complete juxtaposition between real and ideal, i.e. moments when the superhuman quality of the soviet man and the revolution as an anthropological project manifest themselves.
