Empire Tourism Nostalgia

Empire Tourism Nostalgia 

By: Sanna Turoma

In the 1989 documentary film Joseph Brodsky: A Maddening Space, there is a scene where the filmmakers arrange a viewing of photographs taken seventeen years earlier inLeningrad on the day of Brodsky’s departure from theSoviet Union. The obviously moved and somewhat emotionally distressed Brodsky is asked to comment on photographs of himself taken at the moment of his departure, as well as on photographs of his family and friends taken immediately after he had left the country. The pictures take Brodsky back to the moment of his departure, forcing him to reflect on and articulate both the personal loss and the cultural significance of his decision to emigrate. The interviewer directs the conversation to Brodsky’s reception in Russia(the documentary was made after Brodsky had received the 1987 Nobel Prize in Literature, and some of his works were being published for the first time in Soviet journals and magazines).
