About this Event
On the eve of the third anniversary of the bloodiest war in Europe in eighty years, we'll reflect on how we got here, where we stand now, and what might be required in the aftermath--for the United States, Europe, and of course, Ukraine. Three of the world's leading authorities on Ukraine will assist us in exploring these matters. Serhii Plokhii, Director of the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute, will offer an update on the current situation in Ukraine, along with relevant background on the war; Professor of Modern European Intellectual History at Yale University Marci Shore will examine the intellectual framework that enabled the war, together with its impact and implications for Ukrainian, and European, culture. Economist Liudmyla Kurnosikova, currently a McCloy Fellow at Harvard's Kennedy School, will speak about plans for the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine. The panel will be moderated by writer and editor Askold Melnyczuk, University of Massachusetts Boston.
This panel discussion marks the publication of a special issue of Ireland's leading literary journal, Irish Pages, guest-edited by Askold Melnyczuk, on the topic of The War in Europe.
Copies of Irish Pages will be available for sale.
In collaboration with Irish Pages, Brookline Booksmith, AGNI, The Boston University Center for the Study of Europe, and Arrowsmith Press.
