KU Students Show Interest In Russia
KU students are showing an increased interest in Russia, according to George Ivask, assistant professor of German.
As a result, two Russian courses have been added to the Germanic id Slavic Language department.
The courses are "Dostoevsky and the Problems of Our Time," and a beginning course in Russian which has been introduced this semester because of increased student interest in the Russian language.
The Dostoevsky course includes study of such books as "Man from the Underground," "Crime and Punishment," "The Idiot," "The Possessed," and "The Brothers Karamazov." As a lecture and discussion course, it is designed to introduce students to the Russian novelist Dostoevsky and to characters from his works that represent his ideas.
The writings of Dostoevsky are internationally popular and interesting, Prof. Ivask said, because his works deal with international problems. Dostoevsky's ideas are universal and for that reason are interesting to a world-wide audience.
The beginning course in Russian was introduced after a petition by interested students was submitted to the department.
The beginning Russian course is being taught by Prof. Ivask and Sam F. Anderson, instructor in the Germanic and Slavic Language Department.
