      Zero Point Ukraine

      by Olena Stiazhkina

      The Western understanding of what happened in Ukraine during World War II has been shaped by historical and ideological narratives created by the Kremlin. The Ukrainian version of the story has been dissolved in the concept of the “great victorious Russian people” and distorted by attempts to equate Ukrainian national army to German Nazis, while the occupation and colonisation of Ukraine by Russian Bolsheviks in the 1920s and 1930s has widely been ignored or artificially silenced. In her Four Essays on World War II, Olena Stiazhkina inscribes the Ukrainian history of the war into a wider European and world context. Amongst other aspects, she analyzes the mobilization measures on the eve of the war, thus questioning Soviet narratives. Scrutinising the social and political processes initiated by the Bolshevik leadership in the 1920s and 1930s, Stiazhkina concludes that mobilisation and militarisation were integral parts of Soviet power policy. The Soviet and contemporary Russian narratives about World War II have been used to justify the Kremlin’s policies towards democratic countries. Today, Russia remains deeply engaged in the falsification of the past, which underpins the claims of the so-called “Russian World” and the ongoing war against Ukraine. Olena Stiazhkina’s book promotes a new, historically adequate understanding of what happened in Ukraine before, during, and after World War II.

      The Death of Cecil the Lion Made Sense

      by Olena Stiazhkina

      This is the first novel Olena Styazhkina wrote in Ukrainian, and the theme of embracing Ukrainian identity is central to the plot. It takes place in Donbas over the course of several years: the reader follows the journeys of characters who are, at first, held back by Soviet mentalities. As a result of war, they undergo important changes relating to their understanding of themselves and their country, like the dentist who becomes a military surgeon or the cosmetics saleswoman who becomes a sniper shooting instructor. The characters go through a whirlpool of historical events and are reborn as Ukrainians.

      History of civilisation. Ukraine. Volume II. From Kyivan Rus to the Galician Principality (900–1256)

      by Olena Chernenko

      Project "History of Civilisation. Ukraine "covers the period from the Cimmerians to the third partition of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. It is divided into five main blocks: from the Cimmerians to Kyivan Rus (10th century BC - 9th century AD); from Kyivan Rus to the Galician Principality (10th century - 1256); from the Galician Principality to the Union of Lublin (1256–1569); from the Union of Lublin to the Peace Agreement of Andrusiv (1569–1667); from the Peace Agreement of Andrusiv to the third partition of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth (1667–1794). The second volume "History of Civilisation. Ukraine” is dedicated to the period from Kyivan Rus to the Galician Principality (end of the 10th century - 1256). The content of the book is designed to highlight the most important aspects of the historical and cultural process that took place in the lands of modern Ukraine at that time. Leading specialists in the field of medieval history and archeology, as well as young researchers were involved in the creation of the book. Due to this, the book combines theoretical backbone that is basic for the domestic historical science and the results of innovative research, that is presented for the first time in such a popular way. Information on history, economics, language, religion, culture (literature and musical arts, architecture), life (clothing, games and entertainment, etc.) and military affairs of the medieval population of modern Ukraine are collected under one cover. The chief editor of this publication is an archaeologist, Candidate of Historical Sciences of Ukraine (PhD) Olena Chernenko, who has been researching archeological monuments and the history of Ukraine in the Middle Ages for more than thirty years. The book is supplemented by rich illustrative material, designed for the wide audience.

      Embroidery in the clothes of outstanding Ukrainians

      by Tetyna Zez

      The book includes the stories of extraordinary Ukrainians who made a significant personal contribution to the development of Ukrainian literature, theater, and poetry. Among the characters of the book are Lesya Ukrainka, Ivan Franko, Taras Shevchenko, Maria Zankovetska, Olena Pchilka, Olena Skoropadska, Maksym Rylskyi, Mykhailo Starytskyi. But we do not write about the gossip around them. We popularize the art of Ukrainian embroidery and highlight the private fragments of the lives of prominent Ukrainians that are little known to the general public. The book is organized in the form of a folder, which contains postcards-stories about the figure and a memorial item decorated with Ukrainian embroidery. The publication is the result of the cooperation of a team of like-minded people - museologists, embroiderers, scientists, clothing makers and publishers, who implemented a project aimed at popularizing the art of Ukrainian embroidery and highlighting fragments of the lives of prominent Ukrainians that are little known to the general public. Each postcard of the collection introduces us to the biography of a prominent person and the features of the domestic culture of that time through the presentation of a certain memorial item, which is decorated with Ukrainian embroidery. But the authors go further and present products sewn and embroidered by modern craftsmen, decorated with the same embroidery, as well as special schemes are presented, according to which everyone can reproduce both simple and complex ornaments from museum monuments in the material. The book will be interesting for everyone who is interested in Ukrainian ethnoculture, clothing manufacturing specialists, and embroiderers.

      Taste of the Soviet Union: Food and Eaters in the Art of Life and the Art of Cinema (mid-1960s - mid-1980s)

      by Olena Stiazhkina

      This book is about Soviet people - women, men, children - who ate at home, at work, on the road, in kindergartens and schools, in the system of the Soviet canteens. It describes those who fought for their food in long queues to the empty shops, at collective farm markets, gathered it in their own gardens, obtained it through bribes and barter exchanges and stole it at workplaces. It is about those who created the food surpluses in the system of the shadow economy and about those who refused food as a way of rebellion against the system and about those who managed to preserve national cuisine despite its deliberate extermination by the Bolsheviks and calling national dishes "simple nationalism." Food culture is considered not only as a sign of the late Soviet consumer revolution, but also as one of the powerful mechanisms of social engineering and (self) coercion. The real world of Soviet eaters is analysed together with the artistic world where filmmakers created and broadcasted the images of Soviet food, as an object representing repressive society in which taste was as problematic and almost unattainable as food and freedom associated with taste and choice.

      Bridges Instead of Walls, or What Unites Ukrainians?

      by Tetiana Teren

      In this collection of essays, twenty Ukrainian intellectuals reflect on the phenomenon of social bridges and walls. Why do they both exist? Do bridges always bring understanding? Or do they perhaps sometimes allow crossing boundaries? Do walls necessarily separate? Or do they occasionally protect? With whom and how should we build bridges, and from whom shall we isolate by walls? The result of the media project of the Ukrainian branch of the International PEN Club, published in the New Time publication, is now under one cover. On the pages of the book, you will find essays by the following authors: Kateryna Kalytko, Kateryna Botanova, Vakhtang Kebuladze, Zoya Kazanzhy, Ostap Slyvinskyi, Olena Stiazhkina, Larysa Denysenko, Myroslava Barchuk, Viktoriya Amelina, Vitaliy Ponomariov, Vasyl Makhno, Volodymyr Rafeenko, Mykola Riabchuk, Volodymyr Yermolenko, Svitlana Pyrkalo, Borys Gudziak, Ihor Isichenko, Halyna Vdovychenko, Pavlo Kazarin, Vitaliy Portnykov. Compiled by Tetiana Teren. Foreword by Andriy Kurkov.

      Witnessing: Anatomy of Russia's Annexation of the Crimea

      by Anna Andrievska, Olena Halimon

      The creation of this book was spearheaded by two journalists who used to work in Ukraine’s Crimea. The book’s genre is a mix of reportage, activism, and oral history and presents a narrative about Russia’s invasion of Crimea and its annexation in the spring of 2014. The volume captures the everyday life and resistance of the Crimean people under the occupation as well as the work of human rights and pro-Ukrainian activists who had remained in Crimea despite the crackdown of the collaborating local authorities and Russian security forces. The editors have amassed a sizable amount of recollections and testimonies. They interviewed forced migrants who moved to Ukraine-controlled territory immediately or soon after the annexation, people who were persecuted, held captive, or incarcerated by the FSB (the Russian Security Service) as well as residents who stayed in Crimea. These testimonies have undergone a media fact-check and an assessment by human rights institutions, such as the Crimean Human Rights Group and the Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Union, and were reworked in accordance with the standards of democratic journalism, translated into Ukrainian, and equipped with authentic illustrations. Some stories and documents were taken from the public domain and are included with the authors’ permission, while other stories were recorded specifically for this book.

      Outcasts: Punished by Space

      by Tamara Vronska, Olena Stiazhkina

      Minusnyky (outcasts) are a verbal and social creation of the Soviet state, which, through repression, discrimination and control, created communities of "friends" and "foes", branding the latter with punitive methods and forming a specific language to denote them. The book talks about a special category of citizens of the "Soviet country" who were recognized as "socially dangerous" and punished by a ban on settling in a number of areas of the USSR after forced "removal" from their places of permanent residence, as well as serving time in the Gulag system. The researchers analyze the process of constructing the Bolshevik concept of the geographical isolation of the "disloyal" and determine the logic of creating the Soviet space as a space of prohibitions. The regularity of the Soviet territories is analyzed not only as a manifestation of Stalin's repressive policy but also as an organic part of the functioning of the totalitarian mechanism which picked up momentum when the Bolsheviks seized power.
