Spring Harper Lecture #2: Lenore A. Grenoble
Virtual Harper Lecture: The Russian Language Empire

Faculty Lecturer: Lenore A. Grenoble
Moderator: Jessica Kantarovich, PhD’20
Special Guest Commentator: Lauren Cecchini, AB’22

National and linguistic issues are intertwined. How would a linguist contextualize the conflict between Russia and Ukraine? A key piece of this context is the history that Russian president Vladimir Putin invoked in his long report to the Russian people when he justified the “special operation” at its beginning. Lenore A. Grenoble provides a linguist’s view of an international crisis.

Part of the UChicago Alumni and Friends Harper Lecture Spring 2022 Series. Originally broadcast on May 25, 2022
