In celebrating George Luckyj, all the contributors to this volume honour a man who, after retirement, is continuing both a productive career devoted to the study of Ukrainian and Russian literatures and an even more active life dedicated to preserving and disseminating among Ukrainians, particularly vulnerable and susceptible to the loss oftheir heritage, knowledge of the life, histoiy, and culture of their people. George Luckyfs life, much to his surprise and, perhaps, annoyance, has been full and exciting. He was born in Ukraine in 1919, and his parents contributed greatly to his development by providing unfailing and unfading models of integrity, disciplined labour, cultured sensitivity, and commitment. His education began at home and continued both in the excellent local gymnasium with its formal classical curriculum and outside school where George received a quick and rough introduction to nationalistic issues and problems that have intrigued and plagued him to this day. He began university in Germany but, because of the threat of World War II, soon transferred to England, where he received both a B.A. ( withfirst class honours) and anM.A. in English literature at the University ofBirmingham. He then joined the British army and served four years in Germany and in England, where, as an interpreter, he witnessed the negotiations between the British and the Russians that resulted in the shamefulforced repatriation offormer Soviet citizens who had fled their homelands together with the return of those taken unwillingly from their countries as prisoners of war or slave labourers. But exuberance and vitality are the experience ofyouth even in wartime, and in 1944 Moira student George married McShane , afellow at Birmingham whom he had met in Helen Gardner’ s seminar. Their marriage turned out to be a happy, long,fruitful union, and in Moira Georgefound not only a loving companion but also an intelligent editor, a diligent proofreader, and, on many projects, a reliable and able collaborator. In 1947 he and Moira, together with infant twin daughters-a third daughter was born later in Toronto-emigrated to Canada, where George began his teaching career in the English Department at the University ofSaskatchewan at Saskatoon. Two years later he left Saskatchewan and English to enroll in Columbia University in New York C ity, where he was admitted both to the doctoral programme ofthe Department ofSlavic Languages and Literatures and to the diploma programme at the Russian Institute. But graduate study could not absorb all his prodigious energy, some ofwhich was devoted to the launching of the Ukrainian Academy ofArts and Sciences in the U.S. and of the Annals of the Academy <7 journal which he created, editedfor itsfirstfew years, and proudly followed for the more than thirty years it flourished. Upon completion of all vii academic requirements, including the writing of a doctoral dissertation for the doyen ofAmerican Slavists, Ernest J. Simmons, George returned to Canada in 1952 to take up a position as Lecturer at the University of Toronto. Atfirst George taught in what was called the Department ofSlavic Studies, though veryfew ofthe courses offered were not in Russian. But soon after he became Chairman in 1954, an office he retained until 1960, he lobbied effectively among the administrators of the University to create a Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures, and he built support for his Department’ s widening activities among provincial and federal politicians and other community leaders. Under George’s leadership, offerings in Ukrainian dramatically increased, courses in Polish language and literature were introduced, and thefoundation for a programme in Serbo-Croatian was laid. Along with those who succeeded him as Chairman he worked to initiate a programme in Czech and Slovak studies. Besides attending to the growth of his own department, George joined colleagues in the social sciences to create at the University of Toronto the Centre for Russian and East European Studies, where for the first time in Canada scholars and studentsfrom many disciplines couldpool their talents to study the Slavic world, its past as well as present, its peoples and institutions, its borrowings from and its impact on the West. During the same period George also fostered the growth and the development of Slavic scholarship throughout Canada. In the mid-fifties he helped found the Canadian Association of Slavists and became the first editor q/" Canadian Slavonic Papers, /w years the only professional Canadian journal dedicated to the study of all facets of Slavic life, history, and culture. His basic commitment was and still is, of course, to Ukrainian studies. Though he did not initiate such studies in Canada, no one has done more,first, to build a strongfoundation for them and, later, tofacilitate their expansion; the quality and influence of his teaching, his public lectures, and his publications established the respectability and legitimacy of Ukrainian Studies. It was not suprising therefore that George eventually was one of a handful of Canadian scholars to found the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies, which he served as Associate Director, seeing its first major publications on

Matveenko1, Ekaterina A. Nazartseva2, Elena Kh. Zharkova3 Abstract The process of education and science intensive development in Russia at the end of the 17th - the beginning of the 18th centuries is completely related with the personality of Emperor Peter I (Great), who understood the grandiose importance of public education for Russia. The reforms of Peter I in the field of science and education became the most important foundation in the history of pedagogy and military affairs development in Russia, as well as in the history of the Russian state national security strengthening. The result of Peter I reforms in education was the creation of domestic regular Armed Forces of Russia and the provision of the Russian state with the experts of different profiles: military people, engineers, technicians and diplomats. The authors of the article carried out a comprehensive analysis of the materials available in Russia about the Peter schools in order to systematize and preserve these data for pedagogical science and history.

  • Nominees and Bios
    Nominees for the Virginia Emancipation Memorial Pre‐Emancipation Period 1. Emanuel Driggus, fl. 1645–1685 Northampton Co. Enslaved man who secured his freedom and that of his family members Derived from DVB entry: http://www.lva.virginia.gov/public/dvb/bio.asp?b=Driggus_Emanuel Emanuel Driggus (fl. 1645–1685), an enslaved man who secured freedom for himself and several members of his family exemplified the possibilities and the limitations that free blacks encountered in seventeenth‐century Virginia. His name appears in the records of Northampton County between 1645 and 1685. He might have been the Emanuel mentioned in 1640 as a runaway. The date and place of his birth are not known, nor are the date and circumstances of his arrival in Virginia. His name, possibly a corruption of a Portuguese surname occasionally spelled Rodriggus or Roddriggues, suggests that he was either from Africa (perhaps Angola) or from one of the Caribbean islands served by Portuguese slave traders. His first name was also sometimes spelled Manuell. Driggus's Iberian name and the aptitude that he displayed maneuvering within the Virginia legal system suggest that he grew up in the ebb and flow of people, goods, and cultures around the Atlantic littoral and that he learned to navigate to his own advantage. 2. James Lafayette, ca. 1748–1830 New Kent County Revolutionary War spy emancipated by the House of Delegates Derived from DVB/ EV entry: http://www.encyclopediavirginia.org/Lafayette_James_ca_1748‐1830 James Lafayette was a spy during the American Revolution (1775–1783). Born a slave about 1748, he was a body servant for his owner, William Armistead, of New Kent County, in the spring of 1781.

  • Contours and Consequences of the Lexical Divide in Ukrainian
    Geoffrey Hull and Halyna Koscharsky1 Contours and Consequences of the Lexical Divide in Ukrainian When compared with its two large neighbours, Russian and Polish, the Ukrainian language presents a picture of striking internal variation. Not only are Ukrainian dialects more mutually divergent than those of Polish or of territorially more widespread Russian,2 but on the literary level the language has long been characterized by the existence of two variants of the standard which have never been perfectly harmonized, in spite of the efforts of nationalist writers for a century and a half. While Ukraine’s modern standard language is based on the eastern dialect of the Kyiv-Poltava-Kharkiv triangle, the literary Ukrainian cultivated by most of the diaspora communities continues to follow to a greater or lesser degree the norms of the Lviv koiné in 1 The authors would like to thank Dr Lance Eccles of Macquarie University for technical assistance in producing this paper. 2 De Bray (1969: 30-35) identifies three main groups of Russian dialects, but the differences are the result of internal evolutionary divergence rather than of external influences. The popular perception is that Russian has minimal dialectal variation compared with other major European languages. Maximilian Fourman (1943: viii), for instance, told students of Russian that the language ‘is amazingly uniform; the same language is spoken over the vast extent of the globe where the flag of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics flies; and you will be understood whether you are speaking to a peasant or a university professor. There are no dialects to bother you, although, of course, there are parts of the Soviet Union where Russian may be spoken rather differently, as, for instance, English is spoken differently by a Londoner, a Scot, a Welshman, an Irishman, or natives of Yorkshire or Cornwall.
