It argues that naturalistic models of the complex interactions of dynamic systems offer effective tools for understanding the fraught interrelations of art and censorship in the early Soviet period. Through illustrative case studies, it mounts a close analysis of word and image and their synergistic interplay in avant-garde picturebooks, while also recontextualizing them within the ecology of their original environment where extraordinary countervailing forces played out a drama of which these books survive as telling artifacts. Ultimately, it argues that the Russian avant-garde picturebook offers a uniquely illustrative example of literary ecology that sheds light on issues of creativity and censorship, politics and art, more broadly as well"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a A natural history of the Russian avant-garde picturebook -- Precursors of the avant-garde picturebook -- Origins of the revolutionary picturebook -- Aesthetic renewal from the primitivist periphery -- Unnatural selection : censorship and ideology -- Dual audience and double vision : Aesopian depths and hidden subtexts -- The unspoken and the unspeakable : political allegory in children's books -- Revolutionary rhetoric and the semiotics of size -- Early Soviet images of America in picturebooks -- The infantilization of thought and theory in books for children -- Authorial appearances in picturebooks -- Metatextual exploits in writings for children -- The obliteration of the avant-garde aesthetic : the beginning of the end -- The extinction of the Russian avant-garde picturebook. 650 0 $a Picture books for children $z Soviet Union $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Children's literature, Soviet $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Avant-garde (Aesthetics) $z Soviet Union $x History. 650 7 $a Children's literature, Soviet. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00856122 650 7 $a Picture books for children. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01063717 651 7 $a Soviet Union. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210281 650 7 $a Kinderliteratur. $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4073409-2 651 7 $a Sowjetunion. $0 (DE-588)4051038-4 $2 gnd 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Weld, Sara Pankenier. $t Ecology of the Russian avant-garde picturebook. $d Amsterdam ; Philadelphia : John Benjamins Publishing Company, [2018] $z 9789027264527 $w (DLC) 2018031850 830 0 $a Children's literature, culture, and cognition ; $v v. 9. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2013115117 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20190212012616.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2418DCC02E9411E9B5CB1E4197128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
