In this course, based on Olga Kagan and Anna Kudyma’s textbook Russian Through Art and supplemented with online resources, students will hone their Russian-language skills through engaging with various media of Russian visual and performing arts. We will read texts and listen to lectures and podcasts about art, music, architecture, and famous monuments.
