Ukrainian Women's Prose: Unveiling Narratives, Imagery, and Societal Roles of Women offers a groundbreaking exploration of contemporary Ukrainian women's literature during one of the most transformative periods in the nation's history. This compelling scholarly work examines 25 pivotal years — from the fall of the Soviet Union through 2014, at the onset of Russia's military aggression in Western Ukraine, to 2016 — revealing how women writers have become the chroniclers of Ukraine's complex journey toward independence and identity.Through the voices of acclaimed authors including Oksana Zabuzhko, Tanja Maljartschuk, and Sofia Andrukhovych, this book unveils the rich tapestry of women's experiences as they navigate the reconstruction of both personal and national identity. Set against the backdrop of historic events — the Orange Revolution, Euromaidan and Russian military aggression — these literary works illuminate the profound social and political transformations that have shaped modern Ukraine.Drawing on innovative interdisciplinary approaches combining gender studies, postcolonial theory, and feminist literary criticism, this book presents a fresh "herstory" of Ukraine's first quarter-century of independence. It examines central themes of femininity, motherhood, and feminism while addressing the ongoing process of decolonization and identity formation in post-Soviet Ukraine, providing crucial insights into how women's prose has captured the essence of societal change and national awakening. In light of current geopolitical realities, this examination of Ukrainian women's literary contributions offers an invaluable foundation for understanding the cultural forces that continue to shape Ukraine's evolving identity.
Appropriation of Ukraine’s Cultural Heritage as a Legitimization of Russia’s Imperial Aspirations

In the face of Russian military aggression in the Donbas and after the annexation of Crimea (2014) and in view of the full-scale war in Ukraine that commenced in 2022, the Russian appropriation of Ukraine’s cultural heritage has become particularly important, as it should be remembered that Russia's attack not only has a military dimension but is also aimed at Ukrainian national and historical heritage. The appropriation of Ukraine's cultural heritage in the context of the legitimization of Russia's imperial aspirations has become a research interest for an international and interdisciplinary group of researchers, resulting in the co-authored monograph. The monograph was preceded by a series of research seminars conducted at the Jagiellonian University (Kraków, Poland) with the participation of researchers at the National University Kyiv-Mohyla Academy (Kyjiv, Ukraine). The Kyiv-Mohyla Academy is unencumbered by Soviet heritage and continues the traditions of the famous Kyiv Academy (17th century), remaining a respected and prestigious scientific centre. This monograph was produced in collaboration with international experts representing various fields and contains analysis of specific examples of the appropriation of Ukraine's cultural heritage, its use by Russia for propaganda purposes, and Ukraine's attempts to reclaim the narrative about this heritage.
