- W2494617490 abstract "A brief anecdote sets the stage for future investigations: It was in 2001 when I accompanied a Cuban colleague who lived in the United States and his Spanish-speaking Russian wife to the Old Havana home of a couple of his friends who remained on the island, a theater critic and a painter.1 After a bit of rum, the linguistic world switched to Russian and in the last thirty or so minutes of the dinner, I was left out; there was laughter and little translation. While the function of Russian was no longer vital to international transactions on the national sphere, I was not convinced that it was entirely useless. All four then reconciled their behavior, explaining to me that, in fact, they had in common this phenomenon of longing for certain elements of the Soviet Union, to which they had all traveled years before for the purposes of study. What had become clear to me was that although Russian was no longer the principal language of international affairs, it did function as a foil in my presence, and for these Cubans who were born in the 1940s and 1950s and had studied in the Soviet Union, that evening at least, Russian, if ever so slightly, continued to defend Cuba against la yuma. 2 Such a resort to Russian is complex. Cubans’ memories of their experiences in the Soviet Bloc are often filled with disillusionment, and it is likely that the language switch that occurred at the gathering is wrought with that sensation.KeywordsSoviet BlocLanguage SwitchCuban RevolutionYoung ArtistCuban ExperienceThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
