▼a This dissertation studies the experiences and reflections of German Christians who lived in Soviet villages along the Volga and near the Black Sea during the interwar period. It highlights how one ethnoreligious minority managed the Soviet secularizing agenda and demonstrates that identity formation did not always map along stereotypical religious, national, or vocational lines. After the October Revolution of 1917, the Bolshevik Party turned to the tasks of legitimizing political control and remaking society as a communist state. To do so, the Bolsheviks sought to impress Marxist-Leninist ideology upon traditional systems of belief and identity. For German Christians living in interwar Soviet villages, communist antireligious campaigns, nationality policies, and collectivization altered their understanding of community and loyalty. In response, they reimagined previous notions of faith, fatherland, and farm within an evolving political context. Ignoring the new Soviet soul, but also eschewing attempts by German pastors and intellectual elites to reinforce a conservative and historical identity, many German Christians retreated from the public sphere and focused on self-preservation. As a result, the communist social project functionally turned some villagers into selves rather than self-identifying Soviets or Germans. Those individuals did not lose their desire for belonging, however, and many reached out in letters and memoirs for others to inscribe meaning back onto their self-definitional void. This process of "out-sourcing" the self gave German Christian villagers a measure of agency in determining their preferred associations. Their literary nonfiction also helps explain the collective identity of Germans from the Soviet Union that developed between the world wars, even as the strength of that narrative and the horrors of deportation cast a shadow over their interwar past. |
