Description
Whoever may have expected that Ukraine's "Executed Renaissance"--i.e. the annihilation of the most creative, innovative and productive poets, thinkers, and artists in the 1920ies and 1930ies--may gloomily, but finally have receded to a distant past and remains a highly stimulating and controversial topic only for specialists in the fields of Ukrainian poetry, literature, and philosophy, will have experienced a distinct reminder that history is not finished. The "Executed Renaissance" is not even past in an independent Ukraine fighting for its liberty and cultural survival against genocidal imperialist aggression.
Executing a Renaissance as the title of this collection responds both to the poets, thinkers, and scholars who are again persecuted and executed by the Russian soldateska. It is also an attempt at existential optimism against all odds, made possible by the courage and determination of the Ukrainian people. It insists on the monumental fact of the matter that Ukrainian intellectuals and artists are in the process of executing cultural and linguistic Renaissances in the grimmest of circumstances.With contributions by Olga Bertelsen, Polly Corrigan, Victoria Malko, Josef Wallmannsberger, and Mykola Zerov.
