There is much that ordinary Ukrainians do not know about Jews and
that ordinary Jews do not know about Ukrainians. As a result, those
Jews and Ukrainians who may care about their respective ancestral
heritages usually view each other through distorted stereotypes,
misperceptions, and biases. This book sheds new light on highly
controversial moments of Ukrainian-Jewish relations and argues that
the historical experience in Ukraine not only divided ethnic
Ukrainians and Jews but also brought them together. The story of
Jews and Ukrainians is presented in an impartial manner through
twelve thematic chapters. Among the themes discussed are geography,
history, economic life, traditional culture, religion, language and
publications, literature and theater, architecture and art, music,
the diaspora, and contemporary Ukraine. The book's easy-to-read
narrative is enhanced by 335 full-color illustrations, 29 maps, and
several text inserts that explain specific phenomena or address
controversial issues. Jews and Ukrainians provides a wealth of
information for anyone interested in learning more about the
fascinating land of Ukraine and two of its most historically
significant peoples.
