"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.

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).

At its peak the group claimed more than 7,000 troupes and 100,000 members. At the same time that the movement was active, the Soviet state and its citizens were engaged in the massive project of building a new society reflecting the aims of the Revolution. As Vladimir Paperny has argued, part of this new society was a new spatial organization, one that stressed the horizontal over the

Whiting Williams and the Holodomor: a Biographical Essay
Whiting Williams and the Holodomor: A Biographical Essay April 22, 2020 · Lana Babij SUMMARY The distinction of having the first photographs depicting scenes from Ukraine’s Holodomor published in the Western press may belong to Whiting Williams. Several of his photos from an August 1933 visit to Ukraine appeared early in 1934 as illustrations to his articles in a British weekly, Answers. A longtime resident of Cleveland, Ohio in the US, the author was an established writer and speaker best known for his work in management consulting. He was particularly interested in improving labor management relations and traveled throughout the US, Europe and elsewhere, going undercover as a common laborer in coal mines and steel mills to learn about workers’ primary concerns related to their jobs. In 1933, Williams returned to the Donetsk coal mining region in Ukraine, where he had spent time with the area’s miners on the eve of the introduction of the USSR’s first Five Year Plan in 1928. Shocked by the greatly worsened human conditions he discovered that summer in 1933, he managed to take a few photographs which he put together with his personal observations for potential publication in the US. Much to his surprise, however, he could not find a publisher. Finally, the London-based Answers accepted his story along with eight photographs, which appeared in two consecutive issues in February and March, 1934. LIFE AND WORK UNTIL 1933 Charles Whiting Williams was born in 1878 in central Ohio into a prosperous family that valued entrepreneurship and participation in civic life. At Oberlin College, where Williams completed both his A.B.

Kharkiv Cosmopolita Città Ucraina
KharKiv Cosmopolita città Ucraina Cosmopolitan Ukrainian city di | by Anna Glik uore dell’Ucraina orientale, Kharkiv fu fondata nel 1654 ed è diventata uno dei maggiori centri scientifici, in- dustriali e culturali-educativi del paese. La città fu la prima capitale dell’Ucraina per 14 anni, dal 1919 al 1934, un centro dove si riunivano i più famosi scienziati, ingegneri, diplomatici e che oggi vanta tre premi nobel: Lev Landau, Ilya Mechnikov e Simon Kuznets. Kharkiv, conosciuta anche come Kharkov, non solo è una città tra le più grandi e popolose del Paese con il suo milione e mezzo di abitanti, ma è anche tra le più attive nel campo industriale, scientifico, e perfino sportivo: basti pensare alle numerose palestre, campi sportivi, piscine e agli stadi. Non c’è da stupirsi che molti dei suoi cittadini si siano distinti e addirittura abbiano conquistato medaglie olimpioniche nelle varie discipline: ginnastica, nuoto, pallavolo, atletica o ciclismo. accogliente ed ospitale è anche una città all’avanguardia nell’industria di alta tecnologia E a questo, in virtù della sua articolata storia, c’è da aggiungere una grande varietà di stili architettonici, di tradizioni e d’idee, che fanno della città una meta davvero tutta da scoprire. Simbolo di Kharkiv e meraviglia assoluta è Piazza della Libertà, una delle più vaste al mondo con i suoi 12 ettari di superficie, dove si svolgono solenni parate militari, oltre a concerti, eventi culturali o politici. Le fanno corona numerosi Parchi, vivacissime strade, scenografiche fontane e diversi pittoreschi caffè all’aperto. In città il turista troverà sempre una calorosa e amichevole accoglienza, da qualunque parte del mondo giunga perché gli abitanti hanno una lunga consuetudine ad accogliere stranieri.

Because we are people of war – we have always been at war or been preparing for war. If one looks closely, we all think in terms of war. At home, on the street (...) Everything is wartime.” Svetlana Alexievich, Nobel Lecture, 7 December 2015 Is “everything wartime” in the former Soviet Union and former Soviet space, as Svetlana Alexievich suggests? War was incontestably an ever-present feature of the Soviet State. Born during a war, and in major part, of the war, the Soviet regime overcame harsh periods of armed conflict. Even during periods of peace the state and the population always lived between past and future violence: the memory of the civil war and of foreign intervention; the threat of future wars during the 1930s; 1941-45 followed by the Cold War… The Soviet Union unexpectedly collapsed without violence in Moscow, the imperial center.
