What it is

Ivan Tolstoy's long-running programme on the literary and intellectual history of Russia and its emigration, built from archive recordings, readings and conversations with historians. If you are learning Russian for the literature rather than the news this is the single richest free listening on offer. It is also the most demanding entry here: old recordings, pre-revolutionary and émigré vocabulary, poetry read aloud, and no transcripts.

Episodes are played straight from the publisher's feed — nothing is hosted here, and the five newest are whatever the feed served when this page was last built. All Russian podcasts →
