In \u003ci\u003eBrothers and Enemies\u003c\/i\u003e, Johannes Remy reveals that the roots of Ukrainian independence were planted fifty years earlier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemy 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 Remy utilizes a wide range of unpublished archival sources to shed light on topics that are absent from current discourse including: Ilarion Vasilchikov's alliance with Ukrainian activists in 1861, the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. \u003ci\u003eBrothers and Enemies\u003c\/i\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47028061372656,"sku":"9781487500467","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781487500467_p0.jpg?v=1763636114","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781487500467","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
