A pearl the world ‘Kolomyia’ of Ukrainian folk art – a dance of ‘kolomyjka’ – is named in honour of it. sounds like music’ Kolomyia enjoys an unofficial status of the main city of Pokuttia and Hutsul Viacheslav Chornovil land and the gate to the Carpathians. Kolomyia is also called a small Lviv or a piece of Vienna. The world famous authors, Leopold von Sacher-Masoch and Sholem Aleichem, dedicated their writings to Kolomyia. The city is also mentioned in the famous novels of Jaroslav Hašek, author of the immortal ‘The Good Soldier Švejk’. Once the city sat on the important trade and military routes and since 1507 it had been marked on European maps. Nowadays it is impossible to imagine tourist roads of the Carpathians and Galicia without Kolomyia. The city can be reached by air and train, by bus and coach, by bicycle and motorcycle and, of course, by taxi. *Kolomyjka is a Hutsul music At the beginning of the 17th century a genre that combines a fast-paced legendary English captain John Smith visited folk dance and a goofy-rhymed Kolomyia. Why don’t you visit the city? City of comic verses. It was historically Kolomyia awaits its guests and believes that popular among the Poles and you will love its architecture and decorations, Ukrainians, and is also known as the kalamajka in north eastern monuments and sacred buildings, cosy Slovenia. Kolomyjkas are still cafés and noisy market, and what is the danced in Ukraine, as a tradition most important – its hospitable and friendly on certain holidays, during people. festivities, or simply for fun. In Ukraine’s rural west, they are popular dances for weddings. Kolomyia is • 65 km away from Ivano-Frankivsk • 75 km - from Chernivtsi • 196 km - from Lviv • 640 km - from Kiev The distance from Kolomyia to • Ukrainian-Romanian and Ukrainian- Moldavian borders is more than 100 km • Ukrainian-Polish border – 300 km • Ukrainian-Slovak and Ukrainian-Hungarian borders – almost 400 km 4 Walk around Kolomyia WHAT DOES THE NAME OF THE CITY MEAN? Regional ethnographers have been studied the origin of the name ‘Kolomyia’ for 150 years already. Some of them consider that the name is derived from the river Myia or a tin god Myia, near which the first settlement appeared. The others mention that in the Croatian language the word ‘kolomyie’ means a deep gully filled with water, though the latest researches show that the old Croats did not populate Kolomyia land. There is an ancient version according to which the name of the city is derived from the fact that passing through the town salters washed ‘kola’ (wheels) here. Another version says that the city was named after the first Galician crowned king born as Hungarian Koloman. A true solution to the origin of the city name is likely to be hidden in the depth of millennia. That is indicated by the first three letters – ‘kol’, that are present in the names of many cities and localities since the time of the Indo-European settlement. But it is unknown what this word means. The answer is up to future generations. 5 Walk around Kolomyia MAIN HISTORIC EVENTS 1241 – The first chronicle mention of Kolomyia. 11th – 14th centuries – Princely epoch of Kolomyia, shrouded in mystery, with the exception of a few terse chronicle lines.

  • To Children I Give My Heart Vasily
    TO CHILDREN I GIVE MY HEART VASILY SUKHOMLINSKY (Translated from the Russian by Holly Smith) From the Publishers Vasily Alexandrovich Sukhomlinsky (1918-1970) devoted thirty-five years of his short life to the upbringing and instruction of children. For twenty-nine years he was director of a school in the Ukrainian village of Pavlysh, far away from the big cities. For his work in education, he was awarded the titles of Hero of Socialist Labour and Merited Teacher of the Ukrainian SSR; and elected Corresponding Member of the Academy of Pedagogical Science of the USSR. What is the essence of Vasily Sukhomlinsky's work as an educator? Progressive educators have long tried to merge upbringing and instruction into one educational process. This dream was realized in the educational work of Sukhomlinsky. To see an individual in every school child - this was the essence of his educational method and a necessary requirement for anyone who hopes to raise and teach children. Vasily Sukhomlinsky showed in theory and practice that any healthy child can get a modern secondary education in an ordinary public school without any separation of children into group of bright and less bright. This was no new discovery. But he found the sensible mean that enable, the teacher to lead the child to knowledge in keeping with the national educational programme. The main thing for Sukhomlinsky was to awaken the child's desire to learn, to develop a taste for self-education and self-discipline. Sukhomlinsky studied each of his pupils, consulting with the other teachers and with the parents, comparing his own thoughts with the views of the great educators of the past and with folk wisdom.

  • Chapter IX: Ukrainian Musical Folklore Discography As a Preserving Factor
    Art Spiritual Dimensions of Ukrainian Diaspora: Collective Scientific Monograph DOI 10.36074/art-sdoud.2020.chapter-9 Nataliia Fedorniak UKRAINIAN MUSICAL FOLKLORE DISCOGRAPHY AS A PRESERVING FACTOR IN UKRAINIAN DIASPORA NATIONAL SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE ABSTRACT: The presented material studies one of the important forms of transmission of the musical folklore tradition of Ukrainians in the United States and Canada during the XX – the beginning of the XXI centuries – sound recording, which is a component of the national spiritual experience of emigrants. Founded in the 1920s, the recording industry has been actively developed and has become a form of preservation and promotion of the traditional musical culture of Ukrainians in North America. Sound recordings created an opportunity to determine the features of its main genres, the evolution of forms, that are typical for each historical period of Ukrainians’ sedimentation on the American continent, as well as to understand the specifics of the repertoire, instruments and styles of performance. Leading record companies in the United States have recorded authentic Ukrainian folklore reconstructed on their territory by rural musicians and choirs. Arranged folklore material is represented by choral and bandura recordings, to which are added a large number of records, cassettes, CDs of vocal-instrumental pop groups and soloists, where significantly and stylistically diversely recorded secondary Ukrainian folklore (folklorism). INTRODUCTION. The social and political situation in Ukraine (starting from the XIX century) caused four emigration waves of Ukrainians and led to the emergence of a new cultural phenomenon – the art and folklore of Ukrainian emigration, i.e. diaspora culture. Having found themselves in difficult ambiguous conditions, where there was no favorable living environment, Ukrainian musical folklore began to lose its original identity and underwent assimilation processes.

The country is gradually developing the capacity of its state institutions and civil society to address the political and social consequences of Russian aggression. • Russia’s three main levers of influence in Ukraine include the ongoing armed conflict, corruption, and the poor quality of the political sphere. The Kremlin seeks to exploit these vulnerabilities to promote polarization and encourage a clash between Ukraine’s citizens and its governing elite by taking military action, manipulating the corruption narrative, supporting pro-Russia parties, and fuelling religious tensions through the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC). • The ramifications of the military operation in Donbas reverberate strongly across the country and domestic politics. The most prominent spillover effects include the circulation of firearms and the weakened capacity of authorities to reintegrate internally displaced people (IDPs) and war veterans. • With no clear way to end the armed conflict, there is a growing risk of societal polarization. This could have negative consequences for any prospective peace agreement.
