A free tour of Kiev after lunch in Korchma! Kiev, Pushkinskaya Street 2-4/7 Phone: +38 (044) 270-7248, +38 (093) 342-3868 4 | INTERVIEW The life of Dmitriy Salita from New York hasn’t been easy. But neither the difficult childhood nor the life hardships of the poor immigrant broke his spirit. Now Salita is a successful boxer and a promising promoter. Looks like another “American Dream” came true. Dmitriy was born in 1982 in Odesa. When he was nine, he moved to the United States. The main reason behind his moving to America was the discrimination of Jews. His brother Michael, nine years older than Dmitriy, was often insulted and thus had to fight. Immigration to the USA was another trying time for Dmitriy Salita. In 1999, came another blow – his mother died of cancer. His daily life was a real test on his strength of character. Dima went to school in the same clothes he wore in Odesa. Because of this and also because of his poor English, his classmates mocked him ruthlessly. This made Salita learn to defend himself. First, he signed up for karate classes, and then his brother brought him to a boxing club. It was just the beginning. Dima was regularly summoned to the principal’s office. Several times he was expelled from school, but that didn’t dent his self- esteem. So he began to fight back the bullies at school. In boxing, things went very well for Dmitriy Salita. A native of Ukraine is the winner of the prestigious Golden Gloves tournament, an American equivalent of the Olympic Games. Dmitriy Salita revealed the secrets of his success for the readers of Bulba News. SALITA: MY SUCCESS FORMULA IS FAITH IN GOD PLUS HARD WORK – Dmitriy, have you been to Odesa after moving to America? – I was invited to Kyiv, Odesa, and Dnipropetrovsk several times. But because of my hectic life I couldn’t make time for this. Hopefully, soon I’ll go to Ukraine on business. – What do you mean? – I plan to do a boxing show in Ukraine, probably in my hometown Odesa.

  • National Art Museum of Ukraine

    National Art Museum of Ukraine

    География и геология/1.Регионоведение и региональная организация общества. Senior Teacher Chala K. Student Generalova K. National University of Food Technologies, Kyiv, Ukraine National Art Museum of Ukraine One hundred years ago, at the beginning of the history of the National Art Museum of Ukraine, which was first called the City Museum of Antiques and Art, there was hardly any concept of Ukrainian professional art. Ukraine was always famous for its national ethnographical applied art. The founders of the museum's collections decided to prove that this opinion was wrong and defined the list of main representatives of Ukrainian fine art. These scientists have included in the list not only those who were born and worked in Ukraine, but also those national-conscious artists who lived abroad. They thought that foreigners who worked in Ukraine have enriched a national culture too. These principles were the basis of their collective work. So works of T. Shevchenko, I. Repin, V. Borovikovskiy, V. Tropinin, N. Pimonenko, M. Vrubel, N. Ge, G. Narbut, A. Murashko and V. Krichevskiy became a part of the museum's collection. The collectors have found even some older works ranging from medieval icons to Cossacks times portraits of military and church leaders and humorous comic pictures "Cossack Mamay". Things came to collection from different areas ranging from far western Galitsia to eastern Tchernigovshina areas. They looked for masterpieces of Ukrainian art in Moscow and Saint Petersburg and even wrote correspondence to Ukrainian artists living in Europe and America. Though this activity was stopped during the Stalin's repressions, and a big part of collection was dispersed or hidden, the tradition is still alive.

    A President's Portrait in Domestic Protest

    A President’s Portrait in Domestic Protest: 133 The Anatomy of Hate A President’s Portrait in Domestic Protest: The Anatomy of Hate Natalia Lysiuk Taras Shevchenko National University of Kiev Kiev, Ukraine Abstract The extreme level of tension during the Euromaidan in Ukraine has caused a real explosion of urban post-folklore creativity. These folklore forms have many distinctive features of traditional folklore, but they are also characterized by their means of transmission. For instance, anonymous inscriptions could appear anywhere. Such texts have their own dramaturgy, and they recreate the development of the Euromaidan events (from simple appeals to give people an opportunity to determine their own destiny to openly hostile discourse that portrayed the former President of Ukraine, Victor Yanukovich, as the main enemy of the Euromaidan). Among those attested: distortions of Yanukovich’s name; demonstration of contempt for his image; insults; mention of his criminal past and ongoing corruption; and prophecies of his fate. One of the defining features of such texts is the violation of prohibitions on the use of dysphemisms and vulgarity as a verbal weapon against an enemy. We will also discuss the basic functions of protest folklore and hate speech. Crowds on the Maidan (author’s photo) The Euromaidan was the second Ukrainian revolution of this century. It was a public protest that took place in the main Kiev’s square Maidan Nezalezhnosti (Maidan) from November 2013 until February 2014. It was characterized by an unprecedented rise of patriotism and strengthening of national identity (as reflected in the wide usage of national colors, symbols, and images).

    LEOŠ JANÁČEK Born July 3, 1854 in Hukvaldy, Moravia, Czechoslovakia; died August 12, 1928 in Ostrava Taras Bulba, Rhapsody for Orchestra (1915-1918) PREMIERE OF WORK: Brno, October 9, 1921 Brno National Theater Orchestra František Neumann, conductor APPROXIMATE DURATION: 23 minutes INSTRUMENTATION: piccolo, three flutes, two oboes, English horn, E-flat and two B-flat clarinets, three bassoons, contrabassoon, four horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion, harp, organ and strings By 1914, the Habsburg dynasty had ruled central Europe for over six centuries. Rudolf I of Switzerland, the first of the Habsburgs, confiscated Austria and much surrounding territory in 1276, made them hereditary family possessions in 1282, and, largely through shrewd marriages with far-flung royal families, the Habsburgs thereafter gained control over a vast empire that at one time stretched from the Low Countries to the Philippines and from Spain to Hungary. By the mid-19th century, following the geo-political upheavals of the Napoleonic Wars, the Habsburg dominions had shrunk to the present territories of Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia, a considerable reduction from earlier times but still a huge expanse of land encompassing a great diversity of national characteristics. The eastern countries continued to be dissatisfied with their domination by the Viennese monarchy, however, and the central fact of the history of Hungary and the Czech lands during the 19th century was their striving toward independence from the Habsburgs. The Dual Monarchy of 1867 allowed the eastern lands a degree of autonomy, but ultimate political and fiscal authority still rested with Emperor Franz Joseph and his court in Vienna.

Pérez Mauras ã 1999 – Copyright www.elaleph.com Todos los Derechos Reservados TARAS BULBA I -A ver vuélvete... ¡Tiene gracia! ¿Qué significa ese hábito sacerdotal? ¿Así visten ustedes, tan mal pergeñados, en su academia? Con estas palabras acogió el viejo Bulba a sus dos hijos que acababan de terminar sus estudios en el seminario de Kiev y que entraban en este momento en el hogar pater- no, después de haberse apeado de sus caballos. Los recién llegados eran dos jóvenes robustos, de tímidas miradas, cual conviene a seminaristas recién salidos de las aulas. Sus semblantes, llenos de vida y de salud, empezaban a cubrirse del primer bozo, aun no tocado por el filo de la navaja. La acogida de su padre les había turbado, y permane- cían inmóviles, con la vista fija en el suelo. -Esperen ustedes, esperen; déjenme que los examine a mi gusto. ¡Jesús! ¡Qué vestidos tan lar- gos! -dijo volviéndolos y revolviéndolos en todos 3 NICOLAS GOGOL sentidos. ¡Diablo de vestidos! ¡En el mundo no se han visto otros semejantes! Vamos, pruebe uno de los dos a correr: seguro estoy de que se enreda con él y da de narices en el suelo. -Padre, no te burles de nosotros -dijo por fin el mayor. -¡Miren el señorito! ¿Por qué no puedo burlar- me de ustedes? -Porque, porque... aunque seas mi padre, juro por Dios, que si continúas burlándote, te apalearé. -¿Cómo, hijo de perro? ¿A tu padre? -dijo Ta- ras Bulba retrocediendo algunos pasos asombrado.
