Acknowledgements I would like to thank Yoshiko McDonald, Virginia Rudenno and Margareta Akcay for their invaluable support in providing assistance with compiling this English version of my book. FROM THE AUTHOR The impulse to write this book was through my article, published in the Number 1 edition of the Ukrainian Musical Gazette in the year 2007 in Kyiv. It created lively interest from readers and gave me confidence to share my journey and how important music has been in my life. I write this from memory. I would like to apologise to readers for any errors of fact but please take into account that this covers eighty years of the past. HOW DO YOU LIKE AUSTRALIA? 5 ABOUT KYIV, UKRAINE - THE COUNTRY OF MY BIRTH Ukraine is situated in the eastern part of Europe. In the north it borders Russia and Belarus, and in the west, Poland, Slovak Republic, Hungary, Moldova, Romania, and the Black Sea in the south. It is the largest European country except for the European part of Russia. The present population is about 48 million. The capital city - Kyiv (Kiev) is where my life and story began. Kyiv currently has a population of nearly 3 million people and proudly stands on both sides of the Dnipro (Dnieper) River. It is a cradle of Christian religion for Eastern Slavs of three nations - Ukrainian, Belarusian and Russian. The name Kyiv derives from the name of Kyi one of the legendary founders of the city (brothers Kyi, Shek, Horyv and sister Lybid). The city’s history dates back to the fifth century and was founded as a trading post by the early Slavs. It grew and acquired eminence in Eastern Slav civilization, religion and culture. In the tenth to twelfth century it became the political and cultural centre of Kyivan Rus. One of the oldest cities in Eastern Europe, during its history, Kyiv passed through several stages of great prominence and relative obscurity. It was destroyed by Mongol invasion in the year 1240. At the time of the Mongol destruction, Kyiv was one of the largest cities in the world with a population of 100,000 citizens. It had a turbulent history. From 1921, Ukraine became the Ukrainian Socialist Republic of the Soviet Union until 1991, when it gained its independence by the fall of the Soviet Union. EARLY YEARS I was bom in Kyiv, Ukraine. My father Mychailo Grygorovich was working in the Damitza railway repair workshop. He was bom in the village of Nova Basan in the Chernigov region. His name Mirosznyk means that his 6 Anatolij Mirosznyk grandparents were connected with the mills and, actually, Mirosznyk is the person that measures the incoming grain and ready product. About his childhood, my father didn’t tell me much. He lost his father early in his life and grew up with his grandfather and sick mother. He had only a few classes of village school education. At 15 years of age, he moved to Kyiv where he commenced his working life as an apprentice in the metal shop owned by Igor Sikorsky, who was later well-known as an aircraft designer in the United States. As my father acquired experience, he opened his own workshop and later a garage at No. 1 Baseinaya Street. Just before the start of the First World War, he owned a workshop and a garage where he had accumulated twelve hire cars made by Lando. During the war he served in the Sapper battalion. After returning from the front, he continued to work in his garage. When the First World War finished, civil war raged in the country. Following 18 changes of government in Kyiv, finally the Bolsheviks established their rule of the country. At that time, Vladimir Lenin issued a decree guaranteeing life and immunity from further persecution for all capitalists, large landowners, and wealthy people, if they agreed to support the proletarian revolution. My father, after reading this decree, hurried to Podol (Kyiv suburb) to the military Commandant’s office and “wilfully” handed over his garage with twelve automobiles to the cause of the proletarian revolution. He was left with only one motorcycle which he later also handed over. In exchange, he received a special certificate acknowledging his support to the new government, which saved his life many times. He subsequently went to work as a fitter at the Damitza railway repair shop. My mother, Maria Popugayeva, was bom in the Russian city of Kursk. Her real name - “Papuga”, didn’t sound very well in Russian and by the pressure of friends and relatives, changed her name to the more acceptable Russian sounding name of “Popugayeva”. By profession, she was a “high-class” dressmaker. My father’s first wife died early in her life, leaving four children - Evgeny, Gregory, Konstantyn and daughter, Vira. They were all much older than me and lived separately from us. HOW DO YOU LIKE AUSTRALIA? 7 I remember my godfather, Turulin. He was a dental mechanic who lived and had a business at the same address as my father’s garage at N1 Baseinaya Street. His son was also a dental mechanic and was married to a Japanese circus artist whom he met when she was on

  • The Lived Experience of Military Brats of Color In
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME: THE LIVED EXPERIENCE OF MILITARY BRATS OF COLOR IN COLLEGE Alicia Marie Peralta, Doctor of Philosophy, 2019 Dissertation directed by: Professor Francine H. Hultgren Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership Military children of color live in various cultural contexts, often outside of mainstream U.S. society, leading to questions about their experiences as young people of color in college settings. To this end, this dissertation asks: What is the lived experience of military brats of color in college? This dissertation explores the experiences of seven military children of color in college settings as they navigate leaving their unique military context, encounter identities they did not know they had, and individuate from their families and the military context. The phenomenological questioning of identity coupled with conceptions of home and belonging shine a light on the bittersweet experience of the military brats of color feeling like strangers in their own country. These experiences are uncovered using Gadamerian (1975/2004) horizons and Heidegger’s dasein (1927/2008b) in addition to O’Donohue’s (1997, 1998) philosophical writings on belonging and home. The thematizing process brought forth experiences of attempting to forge an identity in the midst of preconceived ideas about who and what you should be as a person. The process of forging identity includes the transition from the military community to college; a settling into college; and a choosing of identity. Pedagogical insights include a critique of identity and how it is constructed, specifically because military children of color are never of a place, but move with and in spaces.

In the post-Soviet period, since the late 80s and early 90s, a number of composers have explored new directions in creative styles thanks to new political and cultural freedoms. This study focuses on Valentyn Silvestrov’s unique Sonata for Violin and Piano “Post Scriptum” (1990), investigating its musical details and their meaning in its post- Soviet compositional context. The purpose is to contribute to a broader overview of Ukraine’s classical music tradition, especially as it relates to national identity and the ii current cultural and political state of the country.
