""World Literature in the Soviet Union demonstrates persuasively that World Literature can be productively conceptualised and analysed as a set of discrete grand projects, each with its own historically and culturally specific institutional and ideological underpinnings. The volume explores in both breadth and depth how Soviet projects of World Literature developed in tandem with the evolution of the Soviet Union’s more general politico-cultural positioning in the world. It at the same time provides important insights into the role that the idea of World Literature played in Soviet constructions of both internationalism and multiculturalism."" — Professor Andy Byford, Durham University
