The Imperial Russian Revision Lists of the 18th and 19th Century JOSEPH B. EVERETT* Family History Library, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA One of the most important resources for social and family historians researching in the former Russian Empire are the revision lists, a series of ten enumerations of the population conducted between 1719 and 1858. Listing the members of each household among taxable classes of people across the Russian Empire, the revisions lists are useful for studying historical population demographics and reconstructing family relationships. An awareness of these records and where to access them can be useful for Slavic librarians to facilitate the research of Russian historians and genealogists. This article provides an overview of the history and content of the revision lists with a survey of available collections online and offline. KEYWORDS: Russian Empire, revision lists, census, social history, genealogy, family history, demographics, archives, microfilming, digitization, online databases The Imperial Russian revision lists will be familiar to those acquainted with Nikolai Gogol’s 1842 satirical novel Dead Souls. -

PREFACE The University of Alberta has what is probably the most extensive collection of maps of Ukraine in Canada. They are used constantly by both academic and private researchers who may be doing anything from looking for the town where their grandparents were born to tracing ethnolinguistic boundaries or changing political units. This region of Europe has been much fought over and as a result has been the subject of mapping by a variety of governments and their armies. -
Gender Equality at Local Level: Challenges and Opportunities in Ukraine 21-22 February 2018 Hotel “President”, 12, Hospitalna Str., Kyiv, Ukraine
Gender equality at local level: challenges and opportunities in Ukraine 21-22 February 2018 Hotel “President”, 12, Hospitalna Str., Kyiv, Ukraine Context Gender equality is achieved when women and men enjoy the same rights and opportunities across all sectors of society, including economic participation and decision-making, and when the different behaviours, aspirations and needs of women and men are equally valued and favoured. The Council of Europe Congress of Local and Regional Authorities (the Congress) is organising jointly with the Association of Ukrainian Cities (AUC) a workshop to discuss the challenges and opportunities related to gender equality at local level in Ukraine. This workshop aims to promote gender mainstreaming in the work of local authorities, and more particularly the role of national associations of local authorities in supporting their members in this respect. Through an interactive programme which combines peer exchanges between representatives of European associations of local and regional authorities and inputs from local and international experts, the participants of the workshop will debate on topical issues specific to gender equality, gender mainstreaming and gender sensitive policies at local level. The workshop is organised within the Council of Europe Congress project “Strengthening capacity of local elected authorities” which aims to improve the implementation of democratic principles in Ukraine by enhancing the institutional and leadership capacities of local elected representatives, and by disseminating -

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. -
