Speaker: Bruce Grant.

By juxtaposing classic ethnographic sources on Caucasian = bride-kidnapping and the hostage taking of military figures as proxies = in ritualized violence, with multiple renderings of Pushkin's good = prisoner story in poetry, prose, opera, ballet, and film, these = seemingly apolitical artifacts of Russian popular culture work to = generate a powerful symbolic economy of Russian belonging in the = Caucasus Mountains.
