Where Folklore Takes Us: The 20-year Legacy of Peter and Doris Kule Centre for Ukrainian and Canadian Folklore.
 

The Peter and Doris Kule Centre for Ukrainian and Canadian folklore (KuFC) is holding an international symposium. We invite submissions that focus and critically explore the ways Ukrainian folklore is studied, taught and practised today, in academia, art, music, business and beyond. Proposals engaging with the topic of Ukrainian folklore from various scholarly perspectives and in diverse regional contexts are particularly welcome.

The 21st CESS Annual Conference will be held virtually, with support from the Ohio State University. The conference will run from 9:15 am on October 14 to 1 pm on October 17, 2021 (all times listed are Eastern Daylight Time, UTC–04:00). If your panel has been accepted, please plan to attend virtually.

Undergraduate students interested in Russia and East European Studies (REES) are invited to the REES open house on Thursday, October 7 at 4:45pm in Foster Hall Room 103. Students will meet faculty and learn about courses being offered in the subject area.

Foster Hall is located at

Presentation by Yuri Shevchuk
October 8, 2021 at 7pm
 

The Ukrainian-English Collocation Dictionary compiled by Yuri Shevchuk, lecturer of Ukrainian at Columbia University, was recently published by the Hippocrene Books of New York. The 1000-page tome has no precedents in Ukrainian or Slavic lexicography and combines features of six types of dictionaries: 1) bilingual (translation), 2) collocation, 3) learner’s, 4) phraseological, 5) thesaurus, and 6) encyclopedic.
