Primitive society in the lands of modern Ukraine. Greek colonies. 3. East Slavic Tribes 1. General issues The integrated course “History and Culture of Ukraine” consists of 2 components – historical and cultural. The first one, History, is the science that studies development of human society from the appearance of the first human to nowadays basing on historical sources. Historical sources are ones that directly reflect historical process. It may be archaeological items before the appearance of writing, documentary sources, ethnographical, oral, linguistical, photo and films, phonodocuments. Historiography is the totality of scientific researches in the field of history dedicated to a particular topic, problem or historical period. These are books and articles based on historical sources. Also, it is considered as a scientific discipline that studies history of historical science. To be a science, a discipline needs its own object and subject. The object is the same for all the Social Sciences. This is society. However, the subject is specific for separate disciplines. For History it is a historical development of the human society, for History of culture it is a cultural development of the human society. The subject of History of Ukraine is a historical development of human society on the territory of modern Ukraine since the appearance of the first human there approximately 1 million years ago. Subject of history of culture is a complex study of a big variety of spheres: history of science and technique, household activities, education and social thought, folklore and literature studies, history of arts. History of culture generalizes all these knowledge and investigates culture as a system of different branches. The development of human society includes culture, so we can use the subject of History of Ukraine as the subject for the whole course. The main particularity of History of Ukraine is the separation of lands under the rule of different countries during the part of its history. Western Ukraine was separated for a long time. In Western Ukraine, there are several historical regions that have their own history. There are Eastern Galicia (or Halychyna) with the historical center of Lviv (Lvov, Lwow, Lemberg), Northern Bukovina (also Bukovyna, historical center is Chernivtsi), Volhynia (main center is Lutsk), Transcarpathia (Zakarpattia, historical center is Uzhhorod (Uzhgorod)). For the most part, that was predominantly under the rule of the Russian state. There we also have specific regions: Sloboda Region (the center is Kharkov (Kharkiv)), the Donbas (the center is Donetsk), Novorussia (the center is Odessa), Podolia (Podillia, the center is Vynnytsia), Sivershina (the center is Chernihiv (Chernigov)), Central Ukraine (the center is Kiev (Kyiv)), 4 Zaporizhzhia (Zaporozhye) (the center is Dnipro (Dnepropetrovsk)). The status of the Crimea and some other regions are under the question. War conflict is continuing. However, according to the Constitution modern Ukraine has an area of 603,628 km2 (233,062 sq. m.), making it the largest country entirely within Europe excluding Russia. According to the electronic census of 2020, the population is 37.3 million residents, excluding the Crimea and the Donbas. Ukraine is located in Central-Eastern Europe and borders to Russia to the east, northeast and south, Belorussia to the northwest, Poland, Slovakia, 5 and Hungary to the west, Romania and Moldova to the southwest, and the Black Sea and Sea of Azov to the south and southeast. The capital of Ukraine is Kiev. Also, Ukraine consists of two parts: Left and Right bank from the Dnieper River. However, it is vice versa on the map because it depends on the direction of the river flow (to the south). Historically, this was an important trade route, and many of the first major settlements in Ukraine, including its capital city, Kiev, were established on the banks of the Dnieper. 2. Primitive society in the lands of modern Ukraine. Greek colonies Primitive society is the first social and economic formation with a low level of development of productive forces and a classless social organization – primitive communism. Primitive culture had its own characteristic feature – syncretism. It means that forms of consciousness, economic activities, social life, and art were not separated and opposed to each other. Any type of activity contained another type. So, it is hard and pointless to separate history and culture of that period. History of Ukraine started in Transcarpathia 1 million years ago when the first archaeoantropic human came to this area. 40,000 years ago the first people of modern type (Cro-Magnons) came to the territory of Ukraine and replaced the previous type – the Neanderthals. The period of primitive society was the most long-drawn-out in human history. It is 99 % of its history and culture. Archaic culture is the longest,

  • "Spotlight" Interview with Christina Crawford
    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.

  • Reconstructive Forgery: the Hadiach Agreement (1658) in the History of the Rus'
    Journal of Ukrainian Studies 35–36 (2010–2011) Reconstructive Forgery: The Hadiach Agreement (1658) in the History of the Rus' Serhii Plokhy Few events in Ukrainian and Polish history have provoked as many what-ifs as the agreement concluded between the Cossack hetman Ivan Vyhovsky and representa- tives of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth near the city of Hadiach in the autumn of 1658. Long before the rise of virtual and counterfactual history, historians in Poland and Ukraine defied the maxim of positivist historiography—that history has no subjunctive mood—and plunged into speculation on how differently the history of both countries would have turned out if, instead of fighting prolonged and exhausting wars, Poland-Lithuania and the Hetmanate had reunited in a new and reformed Com- monwealth. Would this have stopped the decline of Poland, the ruin of Ukraine, Ottoman interventions, and the rise of Muscovy as the dominant force in the region? The Union of Hadiach, as the agreement became known in historiography, had the potential to influence all these processes. It envisioned the creation of a tripartite Commonwealth—the Kingdom of Poland, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and a Principality of Rus', with the Cossack hetman as its official head. The union was the culmination of the activities of moderate forces among the Polish and Ukrainian elites and the embodiment of the hopes and dreams of the Ruthenian (Ukrainian and Bela- rusian) nobility of the first half of the seventeenth century. Nevertheless, the com- promise that the union embodied was rejected by mainstream forces on both sides. The Commonwealth Diet ratified the text of the treaty with a number of important omis- sions, but even in that form it was viewed with suspicion and rejected by the Polish nobiliary elites, which could not reconcile themselves to the prospect of Orthodox Cossacks enjoying equal rights with Catholic nobles.
