Moscow — a Living or a Dead City?
Journal Title: Studia Europaea Gnesnensia - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue
Abstract
The author is interested in travels or writers and journalists (from Poland and the world) to the USSR in the beginning of the 1930s. Some of the travellers visited the state seeking to be reassured in their negative opinion. Others, in contrast, went there convinced that they travelled to a country of universal social justice. However, they did not realise to what an extent the programme of their visit depended on the Soviet propaganda machine. The combined reading of texts by Antoni Słonimski, Andre Gide, Melchior Wańkowicz and Bernard Shaw shows the USSR as a country whose directions of development are difficult to foresee.
