Humanity and Ukraine

Resistance through Language, Culture, and the Taking Up of Arms

About this book

Humanity and Ukraine: Resistance through Language, Culture, and Taking up of Armsis dedicated to a nation under siege, the Ukrainian heroes, who stood up to fight for the freedom and independence of Ukraine and to resist the Russian occupiers when the rest of the world believed in the embedded myth that the Russian army was the 'second army in the world.' This recounts the legendary courageous fighting and resistance by the Ukrainian military and civilians against the Russian invaders waging war on Ukraine. The book analyses the long history of Ukraine, starting with Kyivan Rus, when the Russian invaders tried to steal and rewrite Ukrainian history, through to the current situation of threat to Ukrainian culture and educational institutions, including museums, archives, and libraries. All of this continue to be under systematic and ruthless enemy fire and are subjected to looting and destruction by the occupiers. Ukrainians continue to act to create archival exhibitions, to resist and above all to fight. The book also analyses the plight of Ukrainian war refugees in host countries, of the Crimean Tatars in Russian occupied Crimea and the prospects for Ukraine as a thriving country within Europe and the world after the Ukrainian victory.
