The Ukrainian Experience of World War II<\/strong><\/p>\n

Visual Culture Research Center (44 Hlybochytska Street (1st floor), Kyiv)<\/em><\/p>\n

Visual Culture Research Center<\/strong> and Political Critique<\/strong> invite you to a short course by Serhiy Yekelchyk \u201cThe Ukrainian Experience of World War II\u201d, which will take place from May 25 to 28 (Monday till Thursday) at 18.30 every day.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The short course aims to outline new approaches to the Ukrainian experience in World War II, using contemporary Western historical scholarship. We will begin with deconstructing of predominate ideas about the war and tracking changes how some narratives replace others, and then we will move on to experiences of ordinary people in wartime, usually hidden by the loud words about courage and sacrifices of the nation. Further, the short course will be focused on relationship between the war and vision of the world in ethnic categories that will allow to see the evolution of the official memory of the war from 1945 until today.<\/p>\n

Lecture 1: Narratives of the war.<\/p>\n

Lecture 2: Everyday life of the war.<\/p>\n

Lecture 3: Nationalization of the war.<\/p>\n

Lecture 4: Memory of the war.<\/p>\n
