«Dark shadows of the past will forever remain with us», or Fathers and Sons: Boundaries and Frontiers, Walls and Bridges in Soviet and Post-Soviet Literature by Максим Валерьевич Кирчанов

“…In this context, Soviet and post-Soviet literature can be approached as an historical record that describes geographical, experiential, social and intellectual boundaries between people, cultures, and governments – meaning that they are not only poems, essays, or works of fiction, but evidence of the changes in our socio-political structure and therefore a touchstone to changes in our modern history. Representatives of the first and second generations from this literary history either use different languages or write in two languages simultaneously, a in part due to the fact that emigration became an important factor that forced some intellectuals to abandon Russian language in favour of writing in English. …”

“…Abstract: Ol'ha Kobylians'ka’s short stories about the First World War constitute a rare case of a Ukrainian woman writing on one of the greatest catastrophes in modern history, a subject neglected even in Ukraine. Drawing on recent scholarship on First World War literature, this research proves that Kobylians'ka’s war stories deserve a re-evaluation, not as long-ignored curiosities from the pen of Ukraine’s most sophisticated writer of the time, but as insightful psychological studies of Western Ukrainians and as valuable cultural documents that present an original perspective on the common European experience of 1914-1918. …”
