Leading scholars shed new light on encounters between Jewish, Ukrainian, and Russian cultures. They debate different understandings of cosmopolitanism as they are reflected in Odesa’s rich multilingual culture, ranging from intellectual history and education to music, opera, and literature. The issues of language and interethnic tensions, imperialist repression, and language choice are still with us today. Moreover, the book affords a historical view of what lay behind the Odesa myth, as well as insights into the Jewish and Ukrainian cultural revivals of the early twentieth century UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9798887192574 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9798887192574 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9798887192574/original ER -
