HIP HOP UKRAINE Ethnomusicology Multimedia Ethnomusicology Multimedia (EM) is a collaborative publishing program, developed with funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, to iden- tify and publish first books in ethnomusicology, accompanied by supple- mental audiovisual materials online at www.ethnomultimedia.org. A collaboration of the presses at Indiana and Temple universities, EM is an innovative, entrepreneurial, and cooperative effort to expand publish- ing opportunities for emerging scholars in ethnomusicology and to increase audience reach by using common resources available to the presses through support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Each press acquires and develops EM books according to its own profile and editorial criteria. EM’s most innovative features are its dual web-based components, the first of which is a password-protected Annotation Management System (AMS) where authors can upload peer-reviewed audio, video, and static image content for editing and annotation and key the selections to cor- responding references in their texts. Second is a public site for viewing the web content, www.ethnomultimedia.org, with links to publishers’ websites for information about the accompanying books. The AMS and website were designed and built by the Institute for Digital Arts and Humanities at Indiana University. The Indiana University Digital Library Program (DLP) hosts the website and the Indiana University Archives of Traditional Music (ATM) provides archiving and preservation services for the EM online content.

    Full Results of Survey of Songs

    Existential Songs Full results Supplementary material for Mick Cooper’s Existential psychotherapy and counselling: Contributions to a pluralistic practice (Sage, 2015), Appendix. One of the great strengths of existential philosophy is that it stretches far beyond psychotherapy and counselling; into art, literature and many other forms of popular culture. This means that there are many – including films, novels and songs that convey the key messages of existentialism. These may be useful for trainees of existential therapy, and also as recommendations for clients to deepen an understanding of this way of seeing the world. In order to identify the most helpful resources, an online survey was conducted in the summer of 2014 to identify the key existential films, books and novels. Invites were sent out via email to existential training institutes and societies, and through social media. Participants were invited to nominate up to three of each art media that ‘most strongly communicate the core messages of existentialism’. In total, 119 people took part in the survey (i.e., gave one or more response). Approximately half were female (n = 57) and half were male (n = 56), with one of other gender. The average age was 47 years old (range 26–89). The participants were primarily distributed across the UK (n = 37), continental Europe (n = 34), North America (n = 24), Australia (n = 15) and Asia (n = 6). Around 90% of the respondents were either qualified therapists (n = 78) or in training (n = 26). Of these, around two-thirds (n = 69) considered themselves existential therapists, and one third (n = 32) did not. There were 235 nominations for the key existential song, with enormous variation across the different respondents.

    Public Opinion Survey of Residents of Ukraine

    Public Opinion Survey of Residents of Ukraine September 14 – October 10, 2017 Methodology National Sample • The survey was conducted by GfK Ukraine on behalf of the Center for Insights in Survey Research. • The survey was conducted throughout Ukraine (except for the occupied territories of Crimea and the Donbas) from September 14 to October 10, 2017 through face-to-face interviews at respondents’ homes. • The sample consisted of 2,400 permanent residents of Ukraine aged 18 and older and eligible to vote. It is representative of the general population by gender, age, region, and settlement size. An additional 4,800 respondents were also surveyed in the cities of Dnipro, Khmelnytskyi, Mariupol and Mykolaiv (i.e. 1,200 respondents in each city). A multi-stage probability sampling method was used with the random route and next birthday methods for respondent selection. • Stage One: The territory of Ukraine was split into 25 administrative regions (24 regions of Ukraine and Kyiv). The survey was conducted throughout all regions of Ukraine, with the exception of the occupied territories of Crimea and the Donbas. • Stage Two: The selection of settlements was based on towns and villages. Towns were grouped into subtypes according to their size: • Cities with a population of more than 1 million • Cities with a population of between 500,000-999,000 • Cities with a population of between 100,000-499,000 • Cities with a population of between 50,000-99,000 • Cities with a population up to 50,000 • Villages Cities and villages were selected at random. The number of selected cities/villages in each of the regions is proportional to the share of population living in cities/villages of a certain type in each region.

    FORMS OF ADDRESS IN CONTEMPORARY UKRAINIAN NEWSPAPERS: Morphology, Gender and Pragmatics DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yuliya Walsh Graduate Program in Slavic and East European Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Daniel Collins, Advisor, Predrag Matejic, Brian Joseph Copyright by Yuliya Walsh 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines variation in nominal (unbound) address forms and related constructions in contemporary (post-Soviet) Ukrainian. The data come from 134 randomly selected articles in two Ukrainian newspapers dating from 1998–2013. Among the morphological and syntactic issues that receive particular attention are the allomorphy of the Ukrainian vocative and the spread of vocative markings to new categories (e.g., last names). In addition, the dissertation examines how the vocative behaves in apposition with other noun phrases; this sheds light on the controversial question of the status of the vocative in the Ukrainian case system. Another syntactic issue discussed in the study is the collocability of the unbound address and deferential reference term pan, which has become widespread in the post-Soviet period. The dissertation also examines several pragmatic issues relevant for the variation in contemporary Ukrainian address. First, it investigates how familiarity and distance affect the choice of different unbound address forms. Second, it examines how the gender of the speech act participants (addresser and addressee) influence preferencs for particular forms of address. Up to now, there have been scarcely any investigations of Ukrainian from the viewpoint of either pragmatics or gender linguistics.

    4-8.12.2019 Jak pojąć, żyć w skomplikowanym, skonfliktowanym, zróżnicowanym, multikulturowym XXI wieku? Jak zrozumieć i uszanować Innego, oswoić Obcego? Jak przeciwdziałać toczącym się wojnom, grożącym zagładom: etnicznym, społecznym, przyrodniczym, kulturowym…? Jak zamanifestować swoją niezgodę na coraz trudniejszą rzeczywistość? Jak budować dobro i przeciwdziałać zagrożeniom? Jak w zgodzie z innymi budować swoją tożsamość: narodową, społeczną, kulturową? Jak oddać piękno świata, a w nim człowieka z jego osobnością? Jak poznać własną tożsamość? Jak oswoić nieznane, poznać piękne i urzekające…? Jak robią to Inni…? Próbujemy podczas tegorocznej odsłony ŻUBROFFKI nie tyle odpowiedzieć na postawione pytania, co próbować zgłębić problemy poprzez pokazanie punktów widzenia Innych. Szeroka gama filmów konkursowych z całego świata, spotkania z twórcami, wystawy, koncerty, rozmowy kuluarowe z gośćmi zapewne przybliżą i pokażą ich perspektywę. Tylko od nas zależy, co z tych spotkań wyniesiemy. Zapraszam, życząc wielu wrażeń i spełnienia oczekiwań. Grażyna Dworakowska Dyrektor Białostockiego Ośrodka Kultury How to get to know, understand, and live in a complicated, conflicted, diverse, multicultural 21st century? How to understand and respect the Other, acquaint the Alien? How to counteract ongoing wars, threatening ethnic, social, natural or cultural extermination...? How to manifest your disagreement to an increasingly difficult reality? How to build good and counteract threats? How to build your national, social and cultural identity in harmony with others? How to express the beauty of the world, including the man with their individuality? How to get to know your own identity? How to acquaint the unknown, get to know the beautiful and captivating...? How do the Others do it...? During this year's edition of ŻUBROFFKA, we try not to answer these questions per se, but try to explore the problems by showing the viewpoints of the Others.
