Book excerpt: This generously illustrated album-monograph is dedicated to one of the brightest marvels of traditional culture - the Ukrainian national costume. It is a phenomenon that embraces material, spiritual and artistic treasures of our nation. It is an important contribution because the history of costume mirrors many dimensions of human development and reveals the integration of body, mind and spirit as an aesthetic whole with all of its social facets. A comprehensive study of clothing preserves valuable historic information about national character and reveals many layers of social, casual, ceremonial and chronological trends. The research material upon which this volume is based, is especially valuable as it draws upon different aspects and diverse perspectives.For these reasons, Ukrainian national dress is portrayed as an important historical national phenomenon that was formed over the course of many centuries. It begins with the early Slavic period from the initial stages of primary clothing forms. It traces common and local Ukrainian features that have been evolving through the process of inter-ethnic coalescence during different periods. Striking reconstructions of historical costumes demonstrate an advanced artistic culture of Ukrainians whose talents were woven into a myriad of eras: Kyiv Rus', Middle Ages, Baroque, Classicism, and Romanticism. It is also shown how it contributed to later stylistic trends, all the way up to modem times.This book clearly represents 19th century Ukrainian traditional costume, complete with its classical local variations. Detailed cut outs and decorations, drawings of clothing elements and elaborate reconstructions call out artistic characteristics of our national costume as a distinctive aesthetic phenomenon. Attention is also paid to an analysis of the creation process so that one can see how technique and methods of composition present an inexhaustible source for contemporary designers and artists today.Complete artistic costume reconstructions are unique and extremely important because they are proven authentic by documents. Within this framework, a combination of the field, museum, archive, literature, decorative and scientific research materials hold validity. In addition to using reconstructions by different talent from different times, the book distills details from original sources reflecting specific historic periods. A broad scope of types of Ukrainian people adds another dimension to the depiction of evolutionary cultural processes.A Ukrainian woman has always had elegant taste and a refined sense of beauty. She would spin, dye, weave, and sew every detail of her clothing at home. The finished garment would be decorated by applique and artistically hand embroidered. Every element was intentional; each performed its unique function and carried a special meaning that would organically strengthen the general aesthetic composition. Both the creation of each costume component and the very process of dressing were performed with a certain consistency and were accompanied by special rituals. Costume details and ornaments always contained guardian symbols. All these components are fundamental to understanding the essence and dynamics of the Ukrainian character. The beauty of this unique encyclopedia of clothing is that while it is the historic definition of dress, it also delves into the aesthetic and ethnic riches of Ukrainians.The inexhaustibility of material and ideas about traditional cultures provides boundless space for methods of self-expression and implementation of new creative ideas and discoveries. It functions as a foundation upon which our contemporaries' talents can flourish. That is why this book is so precious. It is the result of the long creative path paved by its author - researcher, historian and artist - who shares with us not only scientific revelations, but a panoramic vision of the beauty and power of her native culture.

Download or read book Ukraine written by Paul Robert Magocsi and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2007-12-15 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ukraine is Europe's second state and this lavishly illustrated volume provides a concise and easy to read historical survey of the country from earliest times to the present. Each of the book's forty-six chapters is framed by a historical map, which graphically depicts the key elements of the chronological period or theme addressed within. In addition, the entire text is accompanied by over 300 historic photographs, line drawings, portraits, and reproductions of books and art works, which bring the rich past of Ukraine to life. Rather than limiting his study to an examination of the country's numerically largest population - ethnic Ukrainians - acclaimed scholar Paul Robert Magocsi emphasizes the multicultural nature of Ukraine throughout its history. While ethnic Ukrainians figure prominently, Magocsi also deals with all the other peoples who live or who have lived within the borders of present-day Ukraine: Russians, Poles, Jews, Crimean Tatars, Germans (including Mennonites), and Greeks, among others. This book is not only an indispensable resource for European area and Slavic studies specialists; it is sure to appeal to people interested in having easy access to information about political, economic, and cultural development in Ukraine.

Book Synopsis A short History of Ukraine by : Mykhailo Hrushevsky
Download or read book A short History of Ukraine written by Mykhailo Hrushevsky and published by XinXii. This book was released on 2024-03-23 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As with many peoples who return to political life late in life, history, the guardian of the past and the inspiration of the present, has played a role in the Ukrainian renaissance that cannot be overstated. Throughout the 19th century, a host of writers and scholars devoted their energies and time to delving into the annals of the nation; they wanted to bring before the eyes of their compatriots the heroic struggles of their ancestors, to seek out the ideas that had sustained them in their sorrows, to find the thread that connects the mentality of today with that of the past, to show their precursors to the new apostles. Many of these historians, whether distinguished by their literary qualities or by the solidity of their science, have made themselves known to the literate world of Europe above all by their writings in Russian, German or Polish. But never a work which claimed to expose clearly the general history of Ukraine appeared in any of the great European languages. And yet Voltaire was struck by the original features of our nation in his time. Already in the 17th century our great national struggles for freedom had aroused the interest of the civilised world and were the subject of a host of memoirs in Latin, French, Italian and German. We shall only quote those of Beauplan, Chevalier, Vimina and Grondski, which gave their contemporaries a fairly accurate idea of what was then happening in Eastern Europe. It is therefore surprising that Ukrainian scholars have not made the results of their work on the history of our nation accessible to the widest possible audience. From the point of view of the interest it can inspire, both to the sociologist, the historian of law and morals, and to the curious person interested in “human documents” and the simple lover of dramatic situations and glorious exploits, it is in no way inferior to that of other peoples...
Download or read book Borderland written by Anna Reid and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2023-02-07 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautifully written evocation of Ukraine's brutal past and its shaky efforts to construct a better future.”—Financial Times Borderland tells the story of Ukraine. A thousand years ago it was the center of the first great Slav civilization, Kievan Rus. In 1240, the Mongols invaded from the east, and for the next seven centuries, Ukraine was split between warring neighbors: Lithuanians, Poles, Russians, Austrians, and Tatars. Again and again, borderland turned into battlefield: during the Cossack risings of the seventeenth century, Russia's wars with Sweden in the eighteenth, the Civil War of 1918-1920, and under Nazi occupation. Ukraine finally won independence in 1991, with the collapse of the Soviet Union. Bigger than France and a populous as Britain, it has the potential to become one of the most powerful states in Europe. In this finely written and penetrating book, Anna Reid combines research and her own experiences to chart Ukraine's tragic past. Talking to peasants and politicians, rabbis and racketeers, dissidents and paramilitaries, survivors of Stalin's famine and of Nazi labor camps, she reveals the layers of myth and propaganda that wrap this divided land. From the Polish churches of Lviv to the coal mines of the Russian-speaking Donbass, from the Galician shtetlech to the Tatar shantytowns of Crimea, the book explores Ukraine's struggle to build itself a national identity, and identity that faces up to a bloody past, and embraces all the peoples within its borders.
Book Synopsis The Gates of Europe by : Serhii Plokhy
Download or read book The Gates of Europe written by Serhii Plokhy and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller, this definitive history of Ukraine is “an exemplary account of Europe’s least-known large country” (Wall Street Journal). As Ukraine is embroiled in an ongoing struggle with Russia to preserve its territorial integrity and political independence, celebrated historian Serhii Plokhy explains that today’s crisis is a case of history repeating itself: the Ukrainian conflict is only the latest in a long history of turmoil over Ukraine’s sovereignty. Situated between Central Europe, Russia, and the Middle East, Ukraine has been shaped by empires that exploited the nation as a strategic gateway between East and West—from the Romans and Ottomans to the Third Reich and the Soviet Union. In The Gates of Europe, Plokhy examines Ukraine’s search for its identity through the lives of major Ukrainian historical figures, from its heroes to its conquerors. This revised edition includes new material that brings this definitive history up to the present. As Ukraine once again finds itself at the center of global attention, Plokhy brings its history to vivid life as he connects the nation’s past with its present and future.

Book Synopsis The Jewish Cultural Tapestry : International Jewish Folk Traditions by : Steven M. Lowenstein Isadore Levine Professor of Jewish History University of Judaism
Download or read book The Jewish Cultural Tapestry : International Jewish Folk Traditions written by Steven M. Lowenstein Isadore Levine Professor of Jewish History University of Judaism and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2001-05-17 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, in one compact volume, is an illuminating survey of Jewish folkways on five continents. Filled with fascinating facts and keen insights, The Jewish Cultural Tapestry is a richly woven fabric that vividly captures the diversity of Jewish life. All Jews are bound together by the common thread of the Torah and the Talmud, notes author Steven Lowenstein, but this thread takes on a different coloration in different parts of the world, as Jewish tradition and local non-Jewish customs intertwine. Lowenstein describes these widely varying regional Jewish cultures with needlepoint accuracy, highlighting the often surprising similarities between Jewish and non-Jewish local traditions, and revealing why Jewish customs vary as much as they do from region to region. We visit the great Ashkenazic and Sephardic cultures of Europe and the Mediterranean; the unique Jewish cultures of Iraq, Persia, Ethiopia and Yemen; the little-known cultures of the Bukharian Jews of Central Asia, the Cochin Jews of India, and the Kaifeng Jews of China. We read about regional religious practices, wedding ceremonies and marriage customs; different traditions of Jewish music and Jewish dress; and the origins of Jewish names. Lowenstein also surveys Jewish cuisine around the world, offering easy-to-prepare traditional recipes, ranging from kugel and blintzes to Malawach from Yemen, T'beet from Iraq, Mina de Cordero from Turkey, and Passover Soup from Uzbekistan. From Europe to India, Israel to America, The Jewish Cultural Tapestry offers an engaging overview of the customs and folkways of a people united by tradition, yet scattered to the far corners of the earth. Packaged in an attractive large format, this beautifully illustrated volume would be a meaningful gift for the holidays.
