Karen Rosenflanz
Visiting Assistant Professor Cii
Russian
I grew up in Great Falls, Virginia not far from Washington D.C. I originally became interested in learning Russian so that I could understand what my violin teacher, a recent Russian émigré who played in the National Symphony, was saying to his dog, an enormous black Newfoundland. I studied Russian at the University of Virginia, the University of Goettingen in Germany, and at the Moscow Institute of Steel and Alloys before pursuing a Ph.D. in Slavic Languages and Literatures at the University of Michigan. I specialize in Twentieth Century Russian Literature and published a book, Hunter of Themes, about Formalist wordplay in the works of Sigizmund Krzhizhanovskii. I recently taught Russian language and a course on Vladimir Nabokov's literary canon at Macalester College. I am currently translating The Theory of Marginal Utility by Evgenii Slutskii, a Russian economist and mathematician. At Gustavus, I teach first and second-year Russian and Russian literature. In my free time, I bike, run, canoe in the Boundary Waters with my family, and play violin in the Valiant Dust Piano Trio.
