        The PostChornobyl Library: Ukrainian Postmodernism of the 1990s

        by Tamara Hundorova

        Having exploded on the margins of Europe, Chornobyl marked the end of the Soviet Union and tied the era of postmodernism in Western Europe with nuclear consciousness. The Post-Chornobyl Library in Tamara Hundorova’s book becomes a metaphor of a new Ukrainian literature of the 1990s, which emerges out of the Chornobyl nuclear trauma of the 26th of April, 1986. Ukrainian postmodernism turns into a writing of trauma and reflects the collisions of the post-Soviet time as well as the processes of decolonization of the national culture. A carnivalization of the apocalypse is the main paradigm of the post-Chornobyl text, which appeals to “homelessness” and the repetition of “the end of histories.” Ironic language game, polymorphism of characters, taboo breaking, and filling in the gaps of national culture testify to the fact that the Ukrainians were liberating themselves from the totalitarian past and entering the society of the spectacle. Along this way, the post-Chornobyl character turns into an ironist, meets with the Other, experiences a split of his or her self, and witnesses a shift of geo-cultural landscapes.

        Der russische Regenbogen

        Roman

        by Hermann Lenz

        Versöhnung – ihr Symbol: der Regenbogen – ist das Ziel dieses frühesten Romans von Hermann Lenz. Was ihr vorausgeht: die letzten Kriegsmonate, der Rückzug der deutschen Armee, die Bombardierungen der deutschen Städte, scheint sie zunächst nicht bewirken zu können, nicht jedenfalls bei all denen, die zu den »displaced persons« gehören, den Kriegsgefangenen, Zwangsarbeitern, aus den KZ’s befreiten Juden. Die junge Russin Tamara, das Ich des Romans, ist eine solche Person. Als Zwangsarbeiterin wird sie 1944 nach Ostpreußen geschafft, von dort flieht sie, gelangt aber nur in das Fremdarbeiterinnenlager einer süddeutschen Stadt. Ihr moralischer Halt sind ihr Haß und das Gift, das sie in der Jacke versteckt hat und das sie vor dem Unerträglichen bewahren soll. Doch Tamara Lasowskaja, einstige Medizinstudentin, jung, schön, erträgt viel, läßt sich durch nichts entmutigen, zu nichts verführen. Als die Amerikaner sie und ihre Leidensgenossinnen befreien, kann ihr die Jubelstimmung der anderen, deren unrealistisches Heimatgefühl für das ihnen nun gleichsam gehörende Deutschland wenig anhaben. Doch sie lernt zu verzeihen. Sie gibt ein Fest, das Opfer und ehemalige Feinde vereint, und kehrt illusionslos in ihr Land zurück.

In the novel also appears the theatrical, choreographic, and artistic life of France of that time, which was vividly reflected in the creative path of Serhiy Lyfar and received its dynamic development in unity with such notable figures as Serhiy Diaghilev, Mykhailo Fokin, Enrico Cecchetti, Matilda Kshesinska, Anna Pavlova, Olga Spesyvtseva, Tamara Karsavina, Vaclav and Bronislava Nijinsky, Pablo Picasso, Igor Stravinsky, Sergei Prokofiev, Alexander Benoit, Coco Chanel, George Balanchine and a number of other famous personalities who were in the center of world culture and art.
