    H-Ukraine H-Ukraine "Spotlight" Interview with Christina Crawford Discussion published by John Vsetecka on Tuesday, July 6, 2021 H-Ukraine “Spotlight” Interview with Christina Crawford Dr. Christina E. Crawford is Assistant Professor of Modern and Contemporary Architecture in the Art History Department at Emory University and faculty of Emory’s Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies Program. H-Ukraine: Not only are you a historian of architecture, but you are also a licensed architect and urban designer. You have produced designs and plans for a number of buildings and municipalities both domestically and internationally. What drew you to architecture as a profession, and what made you decide to teach architectural history? CC: I have always loved buildings and dreamed about becoming an architect from a pretty young age. I grew up in Maine in a house built in 1825 that provided countless spooky corners to explore and that sparked my imagination about who and what inhabited it before me. In college, I double majored in Architecture and Russian & Eastern European Studies (I’ll explain that below). I crafted a senior project that worked for both majors: a written thesis about the construction of the first line of the Moscow Metro in 1935, and a design for a contemporary Moscow Metro station. The project won a big prize at graduation—validation to pursue these disparate interests in tandem—but it took me a long time to figure out how to make a career of it. After serving as a Vice Consul in the US Consulate in St. Petersburg, Russia for a year (interviewing for and adjudicating US visas, a truly awful job), I went to architecture school at the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) and then practiced as a licensed architect in Boston for nearly a decade while also teaching architectural history as an adjunct at Northeastern University—really, just for fun.

  • Kharkiv, EWJUS, Vol. 7, No. 1, 2020
    Borderland City: Kharkiv Volodymyr Kravchenko University of Alberta Translated from Ukrainian by Marta Olynyk1 Abstract: The article attempts to identify Kharkiv’s place on the mental map of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union, and traces the changing image of the city in Ukrainian and Russian narratives up to the end of the twentieth century. The author explores the role of Kharkiv in the symbolic reconfiguration of the Ukrainian-Russian borderland and describes how the interplay of imperial, national, and local contexts left an imprint on the city’s symbolic space. Keywords: Kharkiv, city, region, image, Ukraine, Russia, borderland. harkiv is the second largest city in Ukraine after Kyiv. Once (1920-34), K it even managed to replace the latter in its role of the capital of Ukraine. Having lost its metropolitan status, Kharkiv is now an important transport hub and a modern megapolis that boasts a greater number of universities and colleges than any other city in Ukraine. Strategically located on the route from Moscow to the Crimea, Kharkiv became the most influential component of the historical Ukrainian-Russian borderland, which has been a subject of symbolic and political reconfiguration and reinterpretation since the middle of the seventeenth century. These aspects of the city’s history have attracted the attention of numerous scholars (Bagalei and Miller; Iarmysh et al.; Masliichuk). Recent methodological “turns” in the humanities and social sciences shifted the focus of urban studies from the social reality to the city as an imagined social construct and to urban mythology and identity (Arnold; Emden et al.; Low; Nilsson; Westwood and Williams).

But Mr. Yushchenko’s opponent, Viktor Yanukovych, has refused to concede and has launched an appeal of the result, delaying Mr. Yushchenko’s inauguration. Speaking in his first public appearance after the polls closed at 8 p.m., Mr. Yushchenko proudly announced his victory at 2:30 a.m. on Monday, December 27. “The first news,” he said into a microphone at his campaign headquarters, “It happened.” “This is a victory of the Ukrainian people, the Ukrainian nation,” he said before a mass of some 500 journalists who applauded wildly after he made his ini- tial statement. “The era of [Leonid] Kuchma, [Viktor] Medvedchuk and [Viktor] Yanukovych fades away into the past. An era of a great new democracy is starting. This is what dozens of millions of Ukrainians dreamt about. Today it is fashionable, stylish and beautiful to be a citizen of Ukraine,” he said. Though Mr. Yushchenko proclaimed he had won the rerun of the run-off election the day after the polls closed, the Central Election Commission did not announce the conclusion of its preliminary tally until the following day.
