#30: Writing the Russian Revolution with Misha Lerner '21, Russian

Join Misha and Amelie as they talk about Misha's thesis on Leon Trotsky's theory of revolutionary language and symbolism. You'll also learn a bit about Misha's thoughts on how the literary thesis experience is more of a reading project than a writing project. Reed community members can read Misha’s thesis, “Trotsky Writes the Russian Revolution: The Symbol of the Explosion in Trotsky’s My Life and The History of the Russian Revolution and its Meta-Symbolic Significance,” online in the Electronic Theses Archive: https://rdc.reed.edu/i/5be3de50-8cbe-4e3f-9164-9b2b879f904d
