The focus of the course offered is placed on the conflicted relationhips between Ukrainian and so-called Soviet identity, which developed during the Soviet period and have left an indelible imprint on the cultural memory of contemporary Ukrainians.The aim of the course is to consider the traumatogenic conflict between national and Soviet identities mediated through the works of contemporary Ukrainian cinema and fiction as well as to identify narrative strategies connected with work of memory in the texts under scrutiny.The text corpora that can be discussed in the seminar include works of fiction (or fragments of these works): ”To Speak” by Tania Maliarchuk, ”The Museum of Abandoned Secrets” by Oksana Zabuzhko, ”Tango of Death” by Yuriy Vynnychuk, ”Who are You?” by Artem Chekh, ”Dom's Dream Kingdom” by Victoria Amelina, ”My Grandfather Danced the Best” by Kateryna Babkina, ”Amadoka” by Sofia Andrukhovych; films and series (or fragments thereof): ”The Guide” by Oles Sanin, ”Haytarma” by Akhtem Seitablayev, ”The Red” by Zaza Buadze, ”Felix and Me” by Iryna Tsilyk, ”Saga” by Dmytro Laktionov.The study of the factors contributing to the current popularity of these texts, the way in which they influence the recipients, and their current role in the process of creating a national identity are further aims of the consideration. The research tools of textual analysis will be cognitive and transmedial narratology. Notably, it is planned to consider the fictional material through the lens of the concept of narrative immersion developed by Marie-Laure Ryan.
