CIUS Seminar Audio Part 1 and 2.<br /><br />The third Institute seminar in Edmonton was presented on 16 October by Markian Kowaluk, a graduate student in the Department of Slavic Languages. He spoke on "The Literary Career of Mykola Rudenko," which is also the topic of his master's thesis. Mykola Rudenko was born on 19 December 1920 in the village of Iurivka, Luhanske oblast, Ukraine, and grew up in the Donbas region among coal miners and steel workers. He entered the philological faculty of Kyiv State University in 1939, but in October of that year was drafted into the army. Critically wounded during the defence of Leningrad, he was left a permanent invalid. After the war Rudenko served as editor of R'adlanskyl pysmermyk and, from 1947 to 1950, worked as chief editor of Dnipro.<br /><br /> Rudenko is the author of numerous books. His early poems reflect Communist ideals of heroism and devotion to the Party. One of his more acclaimed epic poems of the early period is "Leninhradtsi . " His later works are more about nature, people and social conditions in his homeland. His novels Viter v oblychehia and Ostarmla shablla became quite popular during the 1950s. Rudenko has also written short stories, popular science and science fiction. In the 1960s he underwent an ideological evolution, resulting in an open espousal of dissident ideas and leadership of the Ukrainian Helsinki group. Arrested in 1976, he was first placed in a psychiatric asylum, then in a prison camp where he remains to this day.<br /><br />Found in <a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1574">CIUS </a><span style="font-size:13px;color:#000000;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;font-family:Arial;font-style:normal;"><a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1574">Newsletter Vol 4 Issue 1 (Winter 1979)</a> </span>

CIUS Seminar Audio Part 1 and 2.<br /><br />In his seminar, "Communism and the Dilemmas of National Liberation: The CP(b)U, 1919–33," James Mace, doctoral candidate in history. University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, took the position that events in Ukraine after the Soviet revolution were and still are relevant to international developments. The first attempt in the world to reconcile socialism and nationalism failed in Ukraine because of the continuing dilemma between identity and purpose, and the inherent contradictions between the goals of socialism and nationalism. The speaker provided an overview of Bolshevik theories and practices before, during, and after the revolution by focusing on Lenin's writings and on the Bolsheviks' attitude towards Ukraine. The 1915 debate between Lev Iurkevych and Lenin foreshadowed the future conflicts which would arise between Ukrainian and Russian communists. / The Bolsheviks viewed Ukraine primarily as a source of food and acted accordingly—pillaging and expropriating grain during the civil war. Bolshevik policy then changed to "socialism with a Ukrainian face" to win popular support from the peasantry. The speaker focussed on the struggles between: the Bolsheviks and the Ukrainian "kulak" peasantry; voices for change from within the RCP (b) (i.e., Mazlakh, Shakhrai, and Lapchinsky); the merger of the "Ukapisty" and "Borotbisty" with the Bolsheviks; and debates about Ukrainization reflected in the writings of Ravich-Cherkassky, Iavorsky, Popov, Khvylovy, Shumsky, Volobuiev, and Skrypnyk. / The speaker concluded that attempts at Ukrainization ended after Stalin defeated his opposition and no longer needed the support of the non-Russian Bolsheviks. After collectivization and the famine, it was no longer necessary to placate the Ukrainian countryside; full-scale Russification could begin. The attempt to guarantee Ukrainian national aspirations through communism was only a surrogate for independence; it was a relative degree of political and economic autonomy dependent on the centralist powers in Moscow. The only major Ukrainian achievement of this period was in the cultural field, but this was thwarted by the wholesale destruction of the Ukrainian intelligentsia in the 1930s. Thus the dilemma of identity and purpose was never solved. Russian communism triumphed by repudiating the promises it had made to the non-Russian nationalities.<br /><br />Found in <a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1571">CIUS </a><span style="font-size:13px;color:#000000;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;font-family:Arial;font-style:normal;"><a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1571">Newsletter Vol 3 Issue 1 (Winter 1978)</a> </span>

At the Institute's first seminar of the 1977-78 academic year on October 5, 1977, Dr. J Borys, professor in the Department of Political Science, University of Calgary, spoke about "The Russian Communist Party and the Sovietization of Ukraine." / In his presentation. Dr. Borys dealt with the manner in which the Soviet Russian sphere of influence had expanded into Ukraine, as a case study of the application of the Marxian-Leninist theory of the self-determination of nations in one of the most important regions of eastern Europe. After seizing power in Russia proper in 1917, the Russian Bolsheviks, contrary to their own theoretical premises and claims, began to reincorporate non-Russian territories into the new Soviet Russian empire. The introduction of control by Moscow in Ukraine, which by that time had established its own government, was the result of military conquest. Dr. Borys argued, and not, as Soviet historiography claims, of support from the Ukrainian proletariat. If it had not been for military assistance from outside, the local Bolsheviks would not have succeeded in establishing their control in Ukraine. / Dr. Borys has received a grant from the Institute to revise his book on the above topic, which was originally published in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1960.<br /><br /><a href="http://cius-archives.ca/items/show/1566">From CIUS Newsletter Vol 2 Issue 1 (Fall 1977)</a>
