Modernists, Marxists, and the Nation: The Ukrainian Literary Discussion of the 1920s - Shkandrij, Myroslav

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; The Literary Discussion of the 1920s was a pivotal event in Ukrainian intellectual history, one whose significance reaches far beyond issues of literary form and style. An expression of cultural self-assertion, it produced a vigorous debate of the issues fundamental to Ukraine's future as a modern nation: its right to exist, its relationship to Russia and Europe, and its sense of identity. The present book is the first comprehensive monograph on the subject. It explores the historical and political context underlying the explosion of polemical writing; analyses the train of events; and discusses the main theoretical issues.
