Imagining Modern Ukraїnica

View through CrossRef
SUMMARY: The author argues that, with very few exceptions, the history of Ukraine of the nineteenth century, written in any language, still largely presents a tabula rasa. Key topics remain unexplored by scholars, including the history of concepts used at the time – a sine qua non for any sustained analysis of the cultural sphere. There is no cohort of universally recognized authorities on the history of the late imperial period in Ukrainian lands that is comparable with the group of highly reputed experts on the Early Modern period, for example. The author concludes that the question posed by Mark von Hagen in his 1995 seminal article “Does Ukraine Have a History?” remains open when it comes to the nineteenth century. The twenty years of immense opportunities that have passed since 1995 seem to have been largely wasted on petty bustle and the wars over history and memorial politics. РезюМе: Автор статьи считает, что, за немногими исключениями, международная историография Украины периода XIX в. представляет собой пустынный степной пейзаж. Неисследованными остаются наиболее важные сюжеты, включая историю понятий, использовавшихся в то время, без чего невозможно полноценное изучение культурной сферы. Не сформировалась и когорта общепризнанных авторитетов по истории украинских земель позднеимперского периода, сравнимая, к примеру, с лидерами в области изучения раннего Нового времени. Автор приходит к выводу, что вопрос, поставленный Марком фон Хагеном в его основополагающей статье 1995 г. “Имеет ли Украина историю?”, остается открытым – по крайней мере, в отношении истории XIX в. Двадцать лет беспрецедентных возможностей, прошедших после 1995 г., кажутся растраченными зря на мелочные разбирательства и войны по поводу политики исторической памяти.
