Russian Cultural Week

Russian Cultural Week

The week is Russian Culture Week 1969.

Professor Koutaissoff, in conjunction will the Russian Club, has produced a programme covering a wide field of interest, similar in pattern to the successful French Week last year.

Every lunchtime from Tuesday to Friday, Russian films (with English dialogue) are being shown in the Memorial Theatre.

There are displays in the Victoria and Turnbull Libraries and a lecture by Bruce Mason on Nabokov (author of Lolita). This talk will later be broadcast on the radio.

Professor Page of the Music Department is contributing a lunchtime concert of Russian music, and for those with more scientific interests, Mr McKenzie of the N.Z. Electricity Department is giving an illustrated report on his visit to the Soviet Union and the 1968 World Energy Conference held in Moscow. The Russian Culture Week is not only for students, but the general public as well. Programmes, giving times and details, have been included in News Sheet.
