War - Opis:
- The collapse of the Soviet Union and the subsequent political transformations almost overnight changed the lives of Ukrainians. Surprisingly, until the early 2010s there had been no contemporary Ukrainian picturebooks devoted to the traumatic experiences of WWII, totalitarianism, as well as the political and cultural changes of the 1980s-1990s. The Euromaidan revolution, the annexation of Crimea, and the subsequent war with Russia have left the first post-Soviet generations with new traumas. Although it is believed that trauma in its distinctiveness cannot be communicated, the attempts to work through it provide a rich discursive repository for theoretical reflection. The proposed paper involves an examination of the discourses on war, trauma, and revolution in three contemporary Ukrainian picturebooks: Khrystyna Lukashchuk’s Kazka pro Maidan [2014], Romana Romanyshyn’s and Andriy Lesiv’s Viyna shcho zminyla Rondo [2015], and Halyna Kyrpa’s Miy tato stav zirkoyu [2015 – illustrated by Oksana Bula]. Focusing on the relationship between text and illustrations, I identify three possible approaches towards the depiction of war and revolution in these picture books and the production of second-generation memory.
