Anna Kovalova (Slavic Languages and Literatures) has just publicly launched Daydreams, the most comprehensive database of Russian imperial feature-film references, original librettos, and visual materials (advertising photographs, frames, posters) for more than 2500 films (1907-1919). Prof. Kovalova presented the database at the 18th International Domitor Conference: A Long Early Cinema? (Vienna, 11-16, 2024). Among Prof. Kovalova’s publications are three items: first, the article “Tears and Laughter: Filmmakers in Early Russian Cinema Press,” in Crafts, Trades, and Techniques of Early Cinema (ed. Ian Christie et al; open access, Michigan Publishing, 2024). The second publication is Prof. Kovalova’s co-edited volume (with Peter Bagrov), entitled “Sinematograf vozvrashchaiet im liubov' k zhizni” Pervyi Vishnevskii sbornik [Cinema returned to them a love for life: The First Vishnevskii Collection] (Moscow: Izdatel'stvo Dedinskogo, 2024), dedicated to Soviet cinema scholar and bibliographer V. E. Vishnevskii (1898-1952), containing her article “‘Russian Endings’: What were They Really Like?,” as well as a translation of work by UK film scholar Philip Cavendish (University College London). Prof. Kovalova’s third publication was a translation of chapters from Ana Hedberg Olenina's Psychomotor Aesthetics in the Russian-language journal NLO [New Literary Observer].
