Classroom

The classes discuss selected literary and cultural discourses that constitute a continuum in the development of Ukrainian literature and art. An attempt will be made to trace the functioning of elements of tradition in the context of contemporary Ukrainian culture and literature.

The classes will cover selected aspects of Ukrainian culture, literature and art, the functioning and importance of tradition in modern times; the functioning of social and political concepts over time that shape the sense of identity and determine the self-reflection of Ukrainian society; artistic tradition and trends in art and their periodic "rebirth" and updating in the present day; selected literary discourses, the presence of which we observe in both past and contemporary works.

Thematic issues:

- Ukraine as a sociocultural reality: "contact zone" or "imagined community"?

- In search of the relevant past: margin, frontier or "gateway of Europe"?

- From romanticism to modernism, or Panteleimon Kulish and Lesya Ukrainka in intercultural dialogue.

- Ukrainian 1920s: the search for cultural orientation.

- The space of the Other as a way to oneself: national and cultural self-awareness in interwar travelogues.

- Ukraine outside Ukraine: ways and consequences of cultural emigration.

- Ukrainian culture within the framework of the Soviet project: the compulsion to unity.

- Discovering the world anew: post-totalitarian, post-colonial, post-dependent.

- From Euromaidan to the Revolution of Dignity: (re)conceptualization of modern Ukraine.

- Contacts, conflicts, interactions: Ukraine as a meeting place of cultures.

- Transculturality, or Ukraine on both sides of the border.

- Ukraine through the eyes of the East and the West: symbols and stereotypes.

- Ukraine in the Polish perspective: Barbara Kosmowska, Ziemowit Szczerek.

- Presentation of research essays on the topic "Self, other, appropriated: Ukraine between East and West."
