Course contents
Seminar of Ukrainian Language and Culture
The seminar aims to provide students with an introduction to the Ukrainian language and culture. It consists of a single cycle of 15 lectures and workshops and is intended for absolute beginners.
The seminar is intended to broaden the cultural education of the student interested in the Slavic world and is particularly, but not exclusively, suitable for those who already have knowledge of at least one Slavic language and the Cyrillic alphabet.
In the course of the lessons, the student will acquire some basic knowledge of the historical and literary-historical background of the Ukrainian culture and will develop some communicative skills in the Ukrainian language through readings and exercises, conversations, etc., aimed at encouraging active participation.
Topics covered in the lectures, with active input from historians, critics and literary historians, will include:
1. Ukrainian history from its origins to 1900 and from 1900 to 2022
