Round Trips: 150 Years of Circumventing Censorship by Russian Publishing Abroad

Since the 19th century, Russian publishing has circumvented censorship by printing abroad. A clever game of literary hide-and-seek that maintains a free press and feeds clandestine circuits in Russia. The exhibition at the University Library of Languages and Civilizations lifts the veil on these practices, from false addresses to pseudonyms, surprisingly relevant since 2022. A fascinating insight into the resilience of literary creation in the face of oppression. A must-see, especially since admission is free! From November 16th to December 24th, 2025.
