    Songwriting and Singing: Ukrainian Revolutionary and Not So Revolutionary Activities in the 1860s Bohdan Klid This paper examines the composition and singing of revolutionary popu- list, patriotic, and nationalist songs by Kyiv-based Ukrainophile students and young intellectuals in the early 1860s. The first part discusses the writing of three songs: two by Anatolii Svydnytsky and one by Pavlo Chubynsky. Svydnytsky was a student at the St. Vladimir University in Kyiv (hereafter Kyiv University) during the years 1857-60, after which he left to teach Russian in a Myrhorod county school in Poltava guber- nia.^ Chubynsky was a law student at St. Petersburg University until the spring of 1861, whereupon he returned to his father’s country home near Boryspil, on the road from Kyiv to Pereiaslav, to write his dissertation.^ Both participated in Ukrainophile activities, which included writing for the St. Petersburg-based Ukrainophile journal Osnova, attending meet- ings of the Hromadas—societies of Ukrainian populist intellectuals in St. Petersburg and Kyiv—and participating in Hromada-sponsored activities, such as endeavors related to popular education, including teaching in Sunday schools and distributing Ukrainian-language popular literature to peasants and city youth.^ ^ On Svydnytsky, see M. Ye. Syvachenko, Anatolii Svydnytsky i zarodzhennia sotsi- alnoho romanu v ukrainskii literaturi (Kyiv: Vydavnytstvo Akademii nauk Ukrainskoi RSR, 1962). He is best known as the author of the first realist novel in Ukrainian, Liu- boratski, which he completed in 1862 but was not published until 1886. ^ On Chubynsky, see Dmytro Cherednychenko, Pavlo Chubynsky (Kyiv: Altematyvy, 2005). He is best known as an ethnographer and the de facto head of the Southwestern Section of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society during the years 1873-76.

  • A Canadian-Ukrainian Writer's Perspective on the Current Troubles in Ukraine
    Blood Orange: A Canadian-Ukrainian Writer's Perspective on the Current Troubles in Ukraine. Let me begin by quoting a great writer: “I myself do not know whether my soul is Ukrainian [khokhlatskaia] or Russian [russkaia]. I know only that on no account would I give priority to the Little Russian [malorossiianinu] before the Russian [russkim], or to the Russian before the Little Russian. Both natures are too richly endowed by God, and as if by design, each of them/ separately contains within itself what the other lacks—a sure sign that they complement one another”(W,88-89). So wrote Nikolai Gogol (to Ukrainians Mykola Hohol) in 1844, when the term “little Russian” or “Malorossian” to mean Ukrainian was in wide usage. Though Gogol's oeuvre was written only in Russian, he introduced many Ukrainianisms into that language, having been born and raised in what is now Ukraine, the son of a Ukrainian father and a mother descended from Polish nobility. The complex case of Gogol/Hohol seems to me emblematic of Ukrainian history itself, and a corrective to current simplistic and reductive discourse about Ukraine and the Ukrainians. I am deeply troubled by today's Ukraine; by how the events triggered by “Euromaidan” have been playing out, and by how they are being reported—or more importantly—ignored or misinterpreted by all but the alternative media. I view the rise of ethnic nationalism in contemporary Ukraine as a tragic and indeed a vicious alternative to the civic nationalism which had begun to develop after Ukraine became an independent country in 1991: civic nationalism, which, in a multi-ethnic, multilingual state serves the interests of the people of Ukraine, and not a genetically chosen “Ukrainian people.” Civic nationalism, unlike integral ethnic-nationalism, can enable the development of civil society, truly democratic institutions, vigorous debate about the public good and equally vigorous critique of vested interests and power, economic as well as political.

The action came on the 189th anniversary of the birth of Ukraine’s national bard, Taras Shevchenko, and was part of similar protests in Lviv, Kharkiv and Symferopol, all associated with the “Arise, Ukraine” movement. At Shevchenko Park in Kyiv the 20,000 or so demon- strators who had spilled onto the Khreschatyk minutes earlier rallied.

  • Ukrainian Musical Elements In
    Ukrainian Musical Elements in Classical Music This monograph is the first comprehensive account of the influence of Ukrainian motifs on the classical music of Europe and Russia from the eighteenth century through the first half of the twentieth. Going beyond earlier, fragmentary treatments that considered direct Ukrainian borrowings by classical composers, Yakov Soroker analyzes Ukrainian elements in the musical language of the composers and regions under study. Beginning with a survey of the modes, melodies and rhythms characteristic of Ukrainian folk music, Soroker discusses the role of these elements in the works of the Viennese classical school, nine­ teenth-century German, Austrian and Hungarian composers, Frederic Chopin and later Polish composers, Bela Bartok, and Russian composers, including such major figures as Musorgsky, Tchaikovsky, Rimsky-Korsakov, Rakhmaninov, and Prokofiev, and lesser lights such as Khandoshkin, Serov and Kabalevsky. Drawing on a vast musical literature and a lifetime of study, Soroker demonstrates the signifi­ cant influence of Ukrainian themes, often wrongly identified as “Russian,” “Hungarian,” “Gypsy,” Continued on back flap Ukrainian Musical Elements in Classical Music Ukrainian Musical Elements in Classical Music Yakov Soroker Translated by Olya Samilenko Edited by Andrij Homjatkevyc [КІУС Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies Press [cius.
