The literature, film, philosophy, literary theory, art, and dance, together with the languages that are essential to understanding them, offer insights into how Russians and Central Europeans have answered enduring questions about what it means to be human. <\/p>\n<p>The department offers a Russian major; a major in Central European Studies (administered jointly with the School of International Relations); a minor in Russian; and a minor in Russian Studies. We offer effective, enthusiastic, and personalized instruction oriented toward teaching conversational Russian. Class size is small and students receive maximum individual attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n  \n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n        \n  \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container
