      Ukraine: wars, battles, personalities

      by Yaroslav Trinchuk

      The historical events and personalities, which left their marks on Ukraine history and which are described in this book, are considered from the point of view of modern sociological and historiosophical doctrines. The author steps aside from outdated and compromised historiographical clichés and mythologies, which were imposed on our nation for more than one century and hindered the development of Ukrainian historical science. The text describes in detail the motives of the actions of prominent figures of Ukrainian history, the course and purpose of wars and battles, well-known or little-known, as well as those about which Russian and Soviet historical science carefully kept silent. The author skillfully embodies the credo: "The greatest art (and happiness) of the historian is to cure the nation history from all the diseases with which its enemies have infected it. And don't get infected yourself."

      Ukrainian Worlds of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Stories about History

      by Natalya Starchenko

      The vision of the Ukrainian history dominant in the Russian Empire and in the Soviet Union focused exclusively on the heroic Cossacks and disenfranchised peasants. There was no room in it for the local elites: the Ukrainian aristocracy (szlachta) of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. As the result of this biased perspective, Ukrainians to this day know very little about the life of those people. This book invites the readers to take a closer look at the Ukrainian aristocracy. This introduction is done in a somewhat unusual form, through true anecdotes from the life of aristocracy gleaned from court records and other sources from the time. We get glimpses of the elites not only in their best garbs but also in their well-worn home clothes. The book brings together 105 brief chapters that describe how these people saw themselves, how they fought and made peace, how they fell in love and got married, how unwavering they were in the defense of their rights in court. Last not least, these essays explore whether the Ukrainian elites were mere extras and viewers in history or its active makers, resolute and strong in their insistence on defending and expanding their rights and freedoms.

      Ukrainian mal’opys: the (un) told story

      by Ruslana Koropetska, Vira Kordoba

      No one knows for sure at what point in history one should start talking about comics. It depends on the narrator and the point on the map where he is. Even though we are going to talk about Ukrainian mal’opys* here, we should stop at the start and by leaps and bounds to see from a bird's eye view that we are not alone in the multiple births, nativities, and discoveries of the ninth art form.
