Exiles and Emigres
Exiles and Emigres
(13) Exiles and Emigres - Marina Mangubi, Department of Art and Art History
How have works of exiles and emigres shaped Western art and literary scenes and continue to influence our culture? We will explore novels by Vladimir Nabokov and Milan Kundera, essays and poetry by Cheslaw Milosz and Joseph Brodsky, works by Degenerate artists who fled German, and contemporary examples, such as Persepolis, an animated film by Marjane Satrapi. As the seminar is offered in the Department of Art and Art History, art-related topics will constitute its significant component.
