The concept of a 'return to Europe' has been integral to the
movement for Ukrainian national rebirth since the nineteenth
century. While the goal of a more fully reformed politics remains
elusive, numerous expressions of Ukrainian culture continue to
develop in the European spirit. This wide-ranging book explores
Ukraine's European cultural connection, especially as it has been
reestablished since the country achieved independence in 1991. The
contributors discusses many aspects of Ukraine's contemporary
culture - history, politics, and religion in Part I; literary
culture in Part II; and language, popular culture, and the arts in
Part III. What emerges is a fascinating picture of a young country
grappling with its divided past and its colonial heritage, yet
asserting its voice and preferences amid the diverse and at times
conflicting realities of the contemporary political scene. Europe
becomes a powerful point of reference, a measure against which the
situation in post-independence Ukraine is gouged and debated. This
framework allows for a better understanding of the complexities
deeply ingrained in the social fabric of Ukrainian society.
