Both Russian and Ukrainian writers have explored the politics of identity in the post-Soviet period, but while the canon of Russian imperial thought is well known, the tradition of resistance B which in the Ukrainian case can be traced as far back as the meeting of the Russian and Ukrainian polities and cultures of the seventeenth century B is much less familiar. Shkandrij demonstrates that Ukrainian literature has been marginalized in the interests of converting readers to imperial and assimilatory designs by emphasizing narratives of reunion and brotherhood and denying alterity.Russian literature19th centuryHistory and criticismUkrainian literature19th centuryHistory and criticismRussian literature20th centuryHistory and criticismUkrainian literature20th centuryHistory and criticismImperialism in literatureRussian literatureHistory and criticism.Ukrainian literatureHistory and criticism.Russian literatureHistory and criticism.Ukrainian literatureHistory and criticism.Imperialism in literature.891.709/358Shkandrij Myroslav1950-1100632MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910809769403321Russia and Ukraine4071795UNINA
