Toward a Cossack Gothic in Slavic Romanticism
Harkusha the Noble Bandit and the "Minority" of Little Russian Literature
From the 1820s to the 1840s, there appeared a number of texts by such writers as Vasilii Narezhnyi, Orest Somov, and Hryhorii Kvitka-Osnov'ianenko that tell tales of Semen Harkusha, a figure straight out of Eric Hobsbawm's Bandits who terrorized the rich and powerful in eighteenth-century Ukraine. Written in Russian, Ukrainian, or in an idiom that oscillates between the two, this corpus of texts articulates the obverse, darker side of what the au…

The Self-Portraits of Taras Shevchenko An Attempt at a Typology
Autobiographical self-fashioning lies at the very heart of Taras Shevchenko’s work, both as writer and artist. Nowhere is this more evident than in the dozens of self-portraits Shevchenko created during the course of his entire life in a variety of media and in a variety of configurations. This article constitutes a preliminary attempt to classify this œuvre based on the system introduced by Omar Calabrese in his 2006 study Artists’ Self-portrait…

Ukraine in Blackface
In this article, Roman Koropeckyj and Robert Romanchuk present a Lacanian reading of the preface and "The Fair at Sorochintsy" from Nikolai Gogol'sEvenings on a Farm near Dikan'ka, vol. 1 (1831), viewed through the prism of American blackface minstrelsy. They trace representations of ethnicity and class in Gogol''s "performance" of Ukraine. Their analysis of the preface demonstrates how Pan'ko's Ukraine reaches a Russian lowerclass audience throu…
Desire and Procreation in the Ukrainian Tales of Hryhorii Kvitka-Osnov’ianenko
Recently, Hryhorii Kvitka-Osnov’ianenko has come under criticism from feminists for originating female characters whose repression of sexuality contributed to the perpetuation of a “patriarchal discourse” constitutive of Ukrainan populism. The problem with this take is that it ignores the fact that it is anxiety about sexuality as such, including its essential “patriarchal” correlate procreation, that informs Kvitka’s Ukrainian stories. The conse…
Orientalism in Adam Mickiewicz's Crimean Sonnets
"T. Ševčenko's "Davydovi Psalmy
Poemes du recueil Try Lita, les D. P. s'inscrivent dans les courants historiosophique et messianique du debut du XIX. Contrairement a l'opinion de certains critiques, les D. P. ne transmettent, pas de message revolutionnaire: leur inspiration est authentiquement biblique (cf. le rapport mal/histoire, cf. aussi leur unite sous jacente...) et ceci d'autant plus qu'au debut du XIX s., seule la Bible se porte garante de l'universalite vers laquelle t…
