HURI List of Panels on Ukraine at ASEEES 2020 HURI at ASEEES On H-Ukraine HURI List of Panels on Ukraine at ASEEES 2020 Discussion published by John Vsetecka on Tuesday, November 3, 2020 The Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute (HURI) developed a full list of panels that will present on Ukraine-related topics at the 2020 ASEEES Conference. The panels are listed below, but you can visit the HURI website to find more information. Numerous panels at the 2020 ASEEES (virtual) convention showcase HURI projects and the work of HURI's faculty and staff. HURI invites attendees to join us at these events, as well as at the many other events pertaining to Ukraine. Overall, we're thrilled to see the participation of so many HURI associates, HUSI alumni, former fellows, and other friends of the Institute, and we look forward to learning more about ongoing research in Ukrainian studies. HURI at ASEEES on Thursday, November 5 Book Discussion: "Ukrainian Nationalism in the Age of Extremes: An Intellectual Biography of Dmytro Dontsov," by Trevor Erlacher Thu, November 5, 2:00 to 3:30pm, Virtual Convention Platform, Room 20 Citation: John Vsetecka. HURI List of Panels on Ukraine at ASEEES 2020. H-Ukraine. 11-03-2020. https://networks.h-net.org/node/4555727/discussions/6696596/huri-list-panels-ukraine-aseees-2020 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States License. 1 H-Ukraine Ukrainian nationalism made worldwide news after the EuroMaidan revolution and the outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian war in 2014. Invoked by regional actors and international commentators, the “integral” Ukrainian nationalism of the 1930s has moved to the center of debates about Eastern Europe, but the history of this ideology remains poorly understood. When, how, and why did it originate? What were its contents, influences, and consequences? Who articulated it and how did it evolve? Framed around the first English-language biography of the doctrine’s founder, Dmytro Dontsov (1883-1973), Erlacher's book addresses these questions with a global intellectual history of Ukrainian integral nationalism, from late Imperial Russia to postwar North America. This roundtable is sponsored by the Ukrainian Research Institute at Harvard University. Read more about the book. HURI at ASEEES on Friday, November 6 The Origins of the Donbas Conflict: New Findings and Ongoing Debates Fri, November 6, 10:00 to 11:30am, Virtual Convention Platform, Room 2 Presentations will address ongoing debates about the origins of separatist conflict in the Donbas area of Ukraine and present new micro-level data from the region. Includes: Viktoriya Sereda (HURI MAPA Project Team); Oxana Shevel (HURI associate): Donbas MAPA Module: Dynamics of Events and Attitudes Oxana Shevel (HURI associate); Maria Popova: Regional Elites, Popular Mobilization, and the Onset of Violence in Donbas in 2014 HURI at ASEEES on Saturday, November 7 Bringing Ukraine into the Classroom: Utilizing Ukraïnica: The Primary Database of English Translations of Literature, Documents, and Films Sat, November 7, 2:00 to 3:30pm, Virtual Convention Platform, Room 17 This roundtable will introduce and familiarize participants with Ukraïnica: The Primary Database, a comprehensive and accessible database of English translations of Ukrainian literature, documents, and films, one that will be easily navigable by researchers and teachers across disciplines and levels—from K12 to college. Developed by the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute, this project aims to develop, produce, and maintain an interactive bibliography that will streamline access to these English-language resources by linking to electronic databases, online retailers, and publishers. The database, moreover, provides an organized and navigable catalogue not only for instructors looking to integrate relevant Ukrainian sources into existing courses, but by organizing the collection by period, genre, and themes, it will be invaluable to those who are looking to develop new courses within and beyond literary and Slavic studies. As a vehicle for bringing a more expansive pedagogical Citation: John Vsetecka. HURI List of Panels on Ukraine at ASEEES 2020.

The expected outcome of the roundtable is a larger group of participants who will expand the project to include sample syllabi integrating Ukrainian topics and sources into new and existing courses, evaluate the quality of the available translations, and add a wealth of secondary sources to contextualize each period and cultural phenomenon in question. Book Discussion: "Ukraine's Nuclear Disarmement: A History," by Yuri Kostenko Sat, November 7, 4:00 to 5:30pm, Virtual Convention Platform, Room 1 At the time of the Soviet Union’s collapse, Ukraine inherited the third-largest nuclear arsenal in the world, including an elaborate control launch infrastructure. In December 1994, having received assurances that its sovereignty would be respected and secured by Russia, the United States, and United Kingdom within the Budapest Memorandum agreement, Ukraine gave up this extensive arsenal and joined the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, endowing the nonproliferation regime with substantial momentum. In his book, Yuri Kostenko, the participant of the nuclear disarmament negotiations with US and Russia, reveals the internal debates of the Ukrainian government as well as the pressure exerted upon it by its international partners. Kostenko convincingly shows how, following the Chornobyl catastrophe, the Ukrainian stance was informed by the fear of a nuclear Holocaust and lack of experience among the leadership of the young Ukrainian state, while international actors were primarily fulfilling their own security agendas. Issues surrounding nuclear disarmament have gained new urgency with Russia's 2014 annexation of Ukraine's Crimea in violation of the Budapest Memorandum, and the international pressure pertaining to North Korea's and Iran's nuclear programs. This roundtable will be co-sponsored by the Ukrainian Research Institute at Harvard University and the Ukrainian Institute (Kyiv). Read more about the book. HURI at ASEEES on Saturday, November 14 Decoding Chornobyl: How the Catastrophe is Perceived, Interpreted, and Remembered Sat, November 14, 10:00 to 11:30am, Virtual Convention Platform, Room 5 The May 2019 HBO miniseries Chernobyl gained great international recognition and reinvigorated popular and scholarly interest in the catastrophe and its consequences. It brought to light major questions which should now be reconsidered and reexamined through the prism of contemporary life: What do we know now about Chornobyl as an ecological, political and existential catastrophe? How does the international community deal with the devastating consequences of Chornobyl? In what particular way did this event change people’s worldviews and beliefs in technological progress? How did the tragedy shape post-Chornobyl cultural trends? How is Chornobyl remembered today? Citation: John Vsetecka. HURI List of Panels on Ukraine at ASEEES 2020.

The discussion will: explore Chornobyl as a global environmental and techno-political event that has had a profound influence on subsequent energy policies and lawsuits related to radioactive exposure during the Cold War; examine the relationship between atoms for war and atoms for peace in the Soviet context; illuminate how American intelligence agencies comprehend the political, social, and medical implications of Chornobyl; and, analyze cultural issues pertaining to Chornobyl, such as Chornobyl memory, the Chornobyl genre in culture, and the museumification of Chornobyl. Ultimately, the objective of this roundtable is to establish a nexus of perspectives and to highlight the possibility of an interdisciplinary framework in studying Chornobyl, an approach that will help us better understanding the nuclear calamity and its implications. Includes: Serhii Plokhii, HURI Director, and Oxana Shevel, HURI Associate Watch our event with HBO's Craig Mazin, Serhii Plokhii's presentation of his book on Chernobyl, and Kate Brown (MIT)'s seminar on her book. HURI at ASEEES on Sunday, November 15 Mykola Bazhan Between Different Aesthetics: From Avant-garde to Socialist Realism Sun, November 15, 8:00 to 9:30am, Virtual Convention Platform, Room 13 This panel explores the poetry of Mykola Bazhan (1904-1983), one of the most eminent and prolific Ukrainian modernist poets of the 20th century, who survived the purges of the 1930s. Galina Babak’s paper focuses on stylistic originality of Mykola Bazhan’s poems of the late 1920s – 1930s that indicate the coexistence and a mixture of two antagonistic philosophical platforms, avant-garde and socialist realism.

  • The Stone Master”: on the Invisibility of Women’S Writing from the Soviet Ukrainian Periphery
    “The Stone Master”: On the Invisibility of Women’s Writing from the Soviet Ukrainian Periphery Oleksandra Wallo University of Kansas Abstract: Until the last decade of the Soviet state’s existence, only very few Ukrainian women writers achieved literary fame. This study sheds new light on Soviet Ukrainian political, historical, and social contexts that contributed to the invisibility of Ukrainian women’s writing by examining the case of Lviv-based author Nina Bichuia (b. 1937). Bichuia’s career and the publication history of her works illustrate several characteristics and paradoxes of Soviet literary politics concerning the Soviet periphery—i.e., the non-Russian republics, such as Ukraine. In particular, this article analyzes the differences in permissible literary expression between Moscow the metropole, Kyiv, the centre of the Ukrainian periphery, and Lviv, the Western Ukrainian periphery. It considers gender politics and biases in the Soviet Ukrainian literary establishment and the strictures of the Soviet “Friendship of Peoples” discourse, which had a provincializing effect on Ukrainian literary production and the tastes of the reading public. The article offers a close reading of Bichuia’s last short story, “Kaminnyi hospodar” (“The Stone Master,” 1990), which reflects this author’s “final word” on the Soviet environment for writing literature in the Western Ukrainian periphery. By analyzing Bichuia’s use of important literary intertexts and employing recent theorizations about Soviet state discourse, I demonstrate how “The Stone Master” imaginatively represents and criticizes the regime of discursive monopoly established by the Soviet system. This regime is shown to force a Ukrainian female writer into silence, which can be strategic, but cannot result in greater literary visibility.

  • Iuliia Kysla
    Rethinking the Postwar Era: Soviet Ukrainian Writers Under Late Stalinism, 1945-1949 by Iuliia Kysla A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Department of History and Classics University of Alberta © Iuliia Kysla, 2018 Abstract This dissertation advances the study of late Stalinism, which has until recently been regarded as a bizarre appendage to Stalin’s rule, and aims to answer the question of whether late Stalinism was a rupture with or continuation of its prewar precursor. I analyze the reintegration of Ukrainian writers into the postwar Soviet polity and their adaptation to the new realities following the dramatic upheavals of war. Focusing on two parallel case studies, Lviv and Kyiv, this study explores how the Soviet regime worked with members of the intelligentsia in these two cities after 1945, at a time when both sides were engaged in “identification games.” This dissertation demonstrates that, despite the regime’s obsession with control, there was some room for independent action on the part of Ukrainian writers and other intellectuals. Authors exploited gaps in Soviet discourse to reclaim agency, which they used as a vehicle to promote their own cultural agendas. Unlike the 1930s, when all official writers had to internalize the tropes of Soviet culture, in the postwar years there was some flexibility in an author’s ability to accept or reject the Soviet system. Moreover, this dissertation suggests that Stalin’s postwar cultural policy—unlike the strategies of the 1930s, which relied predominantly on coercive tactics—was defined mainly by discipline by humiliation, which often involved bullying and threatening members of the creative intelligentsia.

  • On Andrii Malyshko's “Second Birth”
    On Andrii Malyshko’s “Second Birth” Author(s): Volodymyr Morenets Source: Kyiv-Mohyla Humanities Journal 4 (2017): 101–111 Published by: National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy http://kmhj.ukma.edu.ua/ On Andrii Malyshko’s “Second Birth” Volodymyr Morenets National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, Department of Literature Abstract The cultural policy of the USSR provided for the deliberate displacement of Ukrainian (like every other national language) to the naive provincial periphery of the “great art” of the mighty Soviet Union, supposedly possible solely in the sphere of the Russian language. The renewed Soviet ideologization of literature in the postwar years led to a sharp decline in the artistic level of all literary fields. But even against the background of this general artistic decline, the caricaturised burlesque and travesty-like artificiality of Andrii Malyshko’s (1912–1970) poetry of the time is impressive. Malyshko’s so-called “second birth” in his late period represents a rare in its purity instance, where we can observe an ontological conflict of language and ideology that a Ukrainian artist of the Soviet period resolves in favor of language. Malyshko created not provincial peripheral streams, but a strong artistic and philosophical alternative to the blind, technocratic, and miserable in its Russified nature, imperial reality. Key Words: poetry, ideology, folklore, Ukraine, Andrii Malyshko. 3 Andrii Samiilovych Malyshko was born on November 14, 1912 in Obukhiv, Kyiv region, into the large family of a cobbler. In 1927, following seven years of schooling, Malyshko enrolled in a medical college in Kyiv, which he left in 1929 to study at the literary department of the Institute of Social Education (later transformed into the Institute of People’s Education, and subsequently into Kyiv State University).

  • The Poetry of Pavlo Tychyna Reconsidered George G. Grabowicz
    Harvard UkrainianCreating Studies and36, no. Con 3–4Ce (2019):aling 447–93.ModernisM 447 Creating and Concealing Modernism: The Poetry of Pavlo Tychyna Reconsidered George G. GrabowiCz Ty Chyna as ProbleM and ParadigM he TyChyna probleM can be stated succinctly. There is a gen- eral consensus that Pavlo Tychyna (1891–1967) is the outstanding TUkrainian poet of the twentieth century. This opinion emerged in the early 1920s and has solidified and remained in place despite all the changes and perturbations that followed; it is shared even by those who condemn Tychyna for his “betrayal of his Muse,” his “vacillations,” “errors,” patriotic or moral “bankruptcy,” and so on. Accompanying this is a widespread perception that emerged already in Tychyna’s lifetime, but became particularly marked in the half century since his death, that his poetry is radically discontinuous, that it divides clearly and neatly into the “early” and the “late”—suggesting thereby not just phases or periods, but essential hypostases, indeed artistic and existential antip- odes. The “early” poetry (the parameters here are vague, but it entails either his first three collections, Soniachni klarnety [Clarinets of the Sun, 1918], Pluh [The Plow, 1920], and Zamist´ sonetiv i oktav [Instead of Sonnets and Octaves, also 1920], or all of his poetry up to the end of the 1920s) is inspired and orphic and expresses with unprecedented power the national rebirth and tragedy of the revolution and civil war (more correctly, the Russian-Ukrainian war of 1917–1921), whereas the later poetry (the liminal moment here is often taken to be 1933–1934, and his poem and collection by the same name “Partiia vede” [The Party Leads], but earlier dates have also been proposed) is one of ever-greater conformism, support for the party linked to ever-greater timidity if not cravenness, and fundamentally nothing short of a lingering death of the poet.
