Описание: The Russian shanson can be heard across the country today, on radio and television shows, at mass events like political rallies, and even at the Kremlin. Yet despite its ubiquity, it has attracted almost no scholarly attention. Anastasia Gordienko provides the first full history of the shanson, from its tenuous ties to early modern criminals’ and robbers’ folk songs, through its immediate generic predecessors in the Soviet Union, to its current incarnation as the soundtrack for daily life in Russia. It is difficult to firmly define the shanson or its family of song genres, but they all have some connection, whether explicit or implicit, to the criminal underworld or to groups or activities otherwise considered subversive. Traditionally produced by and popular among criminals and other marginalized groups, and often marked by characters and themes valorizing illegal activities, the songs have undergone censorship since the early nineteenth century. Technically legal only since the collapse of the Soviet Union, the shanson is today not only broadly popular but also legitimized by Vladimir Putin’s open endorsement of the genre.
With careful research and incisive analysis, Gordienko deftly details the shanson’s history, development, and social meanings. Attempts by imperial rulers, and later by Soviet leaders, to repress the songs and the lifestyles they romanticized not only did little to discourage their popularity but occasionally helped the genre flourish. Criminals and liberal intelligentsia mingled in the Gulag system, for instance, and this contact introduced censored songs to an educated, disaffected populace that inscribed its own interpretations and became a major point of wider dissemination after the Gulag camps were closed. Gordienko also investigates the shanson as it exists in popular culture today: not divorced from its criminal undertones (or overtones) but celebrated for them. She argues that the shanson expresses fundamental themes of Russian culture, allowing for the articulation of anxieties, hopes, and dissatisfactions that are discouraged or explicitly forbidden otherwise.

Описание: Damien Chance was just a regular guy who had always followed the normal nine-to-five corporate regimen. But when he finally got fed up with what he believed to be the hypocritical world of big business, he dropped out and started working as a bouncer in one of the toughest nightclubs in town. Everyone thought he'd lost his mind, but it was just the change he needed to kickstart his life into a new and adventurous direction. When Chance is offered the opportunity to travel to the jungles of South America to search for gold and lost treasure, he abandons the security and material trappings of the civilized world and launches on an adventure to one of the last wild frontiers on earth - the Amazon. Once deep in the jungles of the Amazon basin, Chance finds himself sucked into the middle of an international battle of unbridled greed and violence, and after watching his newfound life destroyed, a renegade government agent moves out of the shadows and shows him the way to settle the score with the men who shattered his dreams. Chance is forced to deal with ruthless drug kingpins, corrupt military leaders, heartless business tycoons, and even forms an unlikely alliance with a band of militant communist guerrillas in order to get the job done. Along the way he discovers the the life of an Outlaw Traveler may just be the calling he has been searching for all along.
