שיעורי הספרות הרוסית בצל מתקפת רוסיה נגד אוקראינה

The article explores the place of Russian and Ukrainian literature in the context of the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Drawing on an auto-ethnographic approach, the author—a lecturer at the University of Haifa with biographical ties to both cultures—examines calls to boycott Russian culture following the invasion and the implications for teaching literature in academic settings, particularly within ethnically and culturally diverse classrooms in Israel. Through the analysis of the conflicted perception of three key writers—A. Pushkin, N. Gogol, and M. Bulgakov—the article highlights the complexities of literary and cultural identities that resist one-dimensional categorization. It argues that teaching Russian literature under the shadow of war becomes simultaneously a political, cultural, and personal act, while Ukrainian-Russian tensions shed light on broader questions of literary identity that resonate in the Israeli academic and cultural context.
