Ukrainians and World Civilization: Encyclopedic Aspects
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article delves into encyclopedic biographistics, particularly addressing the representation of prominent Ukrainians in the context of world civilization. The aim of the study is to substantiate the necessity of creating encyclopedic publications (encyclopedias, lexicons, reference books) that highlight and popularize significant achievements of Ukrainians in fields such as science, culture, and the arts worldwide. Despite globalization, questions of identity remain pertinent, especially for nations that have experienced prolonged periods of statelessness. Ukrainians, despite the challenges in their history, have managed to preserve distinctive national traits, customs, traditions, language, culture, and even aspects of their national elite, challenging the portrayal by official Russian and Soviet historiography. The material, architectural, literary, museum, and cultural achievements serve as a national heritage for Ukrainians. Ukrainian intellectuals rank among the world’s brightest minds, requiring clarification and dissemination of information about their contributions within and beyond the country, particularly in the realm of world civilization. The preparation of biographical encyclopedic publications poses methodological challenges, including issues related to attributing certain individuals to the Ukrainian national continuum.
