Ukrainian literature and censorship, 1855-1859 -- Ukrainian publishing, Russians, and the empire in the beginning of the 1860s -- Ukrainian clandestine activities and government reaction, 1856-1864 -- Imperial policies and the Ukrainian movement, 1863-1876 -- The Ukrainian movement and Russia in the 1870s -- Aftermath and conclusions.
Subject: "Contrary to the prevailing opinion, the idea of Ukrainian independence did not emerge at the end of the nineteenth-century. In Brothers and Enemies, Johannes Remy reveals that the roots of Ukrainian independence were planted fifty years earlier. Remy contextualizes the Ukrainian national movement against the backdrop of the Russian Empire and its policy of oppression in the mid-nineteenth-century. Remy utilizes a wide range of unpublished archival sources to shed light on topics that are absent from current discourse including: Ilarion Vasilchikov's alliance with Ukrainian activists in 1861, the forged revolutionary proclamation used to deport Pavlo Chubynsky (who is known today as the author of the Ukrainian national anthem), and the 1864 negotiations between Kyiv activists and the Polish National Government. Brothers and Enemies is the first systematic study of imperial censorship policies during the period and will be of interest to those who seek a better understanding of the current Ukrainian-Russian conflict."--
