From Class Foes to the Upper Class: Diverse Paths to Fame and Fortune in Soviet Egyptology
P. 557–572.
This paper seeks to address the topic of diversity in Egyptology by offering an insight into the processes that shaped conceptualisations of Egyptological success in the Soviet Union. For most of its history, the Soviet Union found it quite difficult to engage with the Western scholarly tradition that has been instrumental in shaping mainstream understandings of what Egyptology is right up to the present day. While an extensive literature on various historical aspects of Russian and Soviet Egyptology has long existed within its homeland, only in very recent years has this field of scholarship started to make an effort to engage with international academic audiences outside the Russophone sphere.

This volume is dedicated to the 'supporting actors' in the history of Egyptology, who are often outside the spotlight. It by no means intends to trivialise the achievements of the 'main characters', nor do the editors intend to instrumentalise the history of science for socio-political purposes. Rather, the performance of various groups of actors, including the lesser ...
