Features: In studying the important topic of the relationship between cultural transformation at the turn of the century in Russia and the guidance of nationalism, the author of this paper lacks the courage and is also impossible to involve all the complex aspects contained therein and exhaust all the important meanings. It is only hoped that it can describe and analyze the variations of the nationalist tradition in the process of globalization during this cultural transformation at the turn of the century in Russia, the specific nationalist behaviors in response to the invasion of post-colonialism, and how nationalism has influenced cultural concepts, the reconstruction of cultural and literary studies, and literary history, as well as the relationship between the narrative strategies of postmodernist literature and mass culture and nationalism, and other contradictory issues. The book includes: Nationalist Issues in Russian Cultural Transformation: Traditional Culture and Global Consciousness; Various Phenomena of Contemporary Russian Nationalism: Responding to Post-Colonialism.
