1988年,奥列斯特·萨布捷尔尼(Orest Subtelny)的《乌克兰》(Ukraine)第一版出版,受到国际赞誉,被视为当时苏联共和国的权威历史。从那以后的几年里,世界见证了苏联集团的解体和乌克兰恢复独立。全世界的乌克兰人都在庆祝这一事件,但对乌克兰国内的人来说,这也预示着一个动荡的变革时期。虽然以前的更新将读者带到2000年,但新的第四版包括对乌克兰最近历史的概述,重点关注库奇马和尤先科总统任期内发生的戏剧性政治,社会经济和文化变革。它分析了政治发展?尤其是所谓的橙色革命?以及新国家的制度发展。Subtelny考察了乌克兰进入全球化时代,关注社会和经济转型,区域,意识形态和语言紧张局势,并描述了乌克兰国家和社会目前面临的无数挑战。尽管乌克兰这个新国家是1989年革命后形成的许多国家之一,直到1991年才成立,但它很难说是一个新国家。然而,世界对乌克兰的普遍了解似乎主要与相对较近的悲剧有关——1986年的切尔诺贝利事故,1941年的巴比雅,1933年的大饥荒,以及1919年的大屠杀。但是,乌克兰的历史不仅仅是现代的悲剧,事实上,乌克兰比乌克兰人更重要。到目前为止,乌克兰的大部分历史都是乌克兰人民的历史。虽然这本书详细地追溯了乌克兰人的演变,但保罗·罗伯特·马戈西试图对乌克兰境内发展的其他民族和文化也给予明智的对待,包括克里米亚鞑靼人、波兰人、俄罗斯人、德国人、犹太人、门诺派教徒、希腊人和罗马尼亚人,他们都构成了乌克兰历史的重要组成部分。《乌克兰史》被设计成供教师和学生在历史、政治科学、宗教史、地理、斯拉夫和东欧研究等领域使用的教科书。全书分为十节,每节大约五章,从公元前的第一个千年到1991年乌克兰宣布独立,按时间顺序进行。每个部分都对政治、经济和文化发展进行了平衡的讨论;每章以对所讨论的重要问题的总结结束。全书附有42张地图和20张表格。特色是67个“文本插入”,包括重要文件和当代描述的摘录,以及对具体事件,概念和历史问题的生动解释。学生也将受益于深入阅读的广泛文章,为书中的每个部分提供参考书目方向。
In 1988, the first edition of Orest Subtelny's Ukraine was published to international acclaim, as the definitive history of what was at that time a republic in the USSR. In the years since, the world has seen the dismantling of the Soviet bloc and the restoration of Ukraine's independence ? an event celebrated by Ukrainians around the world but which also heralded a time of tumultuous change for those in the homeland. While previous updates brought readers up to the year 2000, this new fourth edition includes an overview of Ukraine's most recent history, focusing on the dramatic political, socio-economic, and cultural changes that occurred during the Kuchma and Yushchenko presidencies. It analyzes political developments ? particularly the so-called Orange Revolution ? and the institutional growth of the new state. Subtelny examines Ukraine's entry into the era of globalization, looking at social and economic transformations, regional, ideological, and linguistic tensions, and describes the myriad challenges currently facing Ukrainian state and society. Although the new state of Ukraine came into being only in 1991 as one of many formed in the wake of the Revolution of 1989, it was hardly a new country. Yet what the world has generally known of Ukraine seems to be associated primarily with relatively recent tragedies - Chornobyl in 1986, Babi Yar in 1941, the great famine of 1933, and the pogroms of 1919. But there is more to Ukrainian history than tragedy in the modern era and, indeed, more to Ukraine than Ukrainians. Until now, most histories of Ukraine have been histories of the Ukrainian people alone. While this book traces in detail the evolution of the Ukrainians, Paul Robert Magocsi attempts to give judicious treatment as well to other peoples and cultures that developed within the borders of Ukraine, including the Crimean Tatars, Poles, Russians, Germans, Jews, Mennonites, Greeks, and Romanians, all of whom form an essential part of Ukraine's history. A History of Ukraine has been designed as a textbook for use by teachers and students in areas such as history, political science, religious history, geography, and Slavic and East European Studies. Presented in ten sections of roughly five chapters each, it proceeds chronologically from the first millennium before the common era to the declaration of Ukrainian independence in 1991. Each section provides a balanced discussion of political, economic, and cultural developments; each chapter ends with a summary of the significant issues discussed. The whole is complemented by forty-two maps and twenty tables. Featured are sixty-seven 'text inserts' that include excerpts from important documents and contemporary descriptions as well as vivid explanations of specific events, concepts, and historiographic problems. Students will also benefit from the extensive essay on further reading that provides bibliographic direction for each of the sections in the book.
