In this paper, Jasmine Alexander-Greene examines works of fiction from around the world in which Russian president Vladimir Putin appears as a protagonist, secondary character, or significant cameo. Rather than a uniform approach to Putin, Alexander-Greene finds significant variation not only in how Putin is represented but also the works' origins, perspectives, and literary approaches. Together, they underscore the paradox between the fantasy of control, tied to the figure of the Russian leader, and the more chaotic reality. (Master's thesis) |
