It also held the unrivaled spiritual and ideological position as Russia's own Jerusalem. In Imperial Urbanism in the Borderlands, Serhiy Bilenky examines issues of space, urban planning, socio-spatial form, and the perceptions of change in imperial Kyiv. Combining cultural and social history with that of urban studies, Bilenky unearths a wide range of unpublished archival materials and argues that the changes experienced by the city prior to the revolution of 1917 were no less dramatic and traumatic than those of the Communist and post-Communist era. In fact, much of Kyiv's contemporary urban form, architecture, and natural setting were shaped by imperial modernizers during the long nineteenth century. The author also explores a general culture of imperial urbanism in Eastern Europe. Imperial Urbanism in the Borderlands is the first work to approach the history of Kyiv from an interdisciplinary perspective and showcases Kyiv's rightful place as a city worthy of attention from historians, urbanists, and literary scholars. 606 $aUrbanization$zUkraine$zKyi?v$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aKyi?v (Ukraine)$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aUrbanization$xHistory 676 $a947.714 700 $aBilenky$b Serhiy, $01088430 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996472047103316 996 $aImperial Urbanism in the Borderlands$92843172 997 $aUNISA
