Spanning the early twentieth century to the present, the twelve chapters move between Ukrainian, Polish, Czech, Belarusian, Russian, and post-Yugoslav cultures, addressing figures such as Vasyl Stus, Andrzej Wajda, Jáchym Topol, Olga Tokarczuk, and Saša Stanišić, as well as contemporary poets including Lyuba Yakimchuk, Iya Kiva, Daryna Gladun, and Julia Cimafiejeva. The closing chapters address poetry written in Ukraine since 2014 and in Belarus since 2020, where the struggle over memory and the possibility of a future becomes a matter of survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTime and Its Politics in Central and Eastern Europe \u003c\/i\u003eis of value for scholars and students in cultural studies, specialists in Central and Eastern Europe, and anyone concerned with comparative literature, gender and sexuality, or film and visual culture.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlexander Wöll\u003c\/b\u003e, Professor of Central and Eastern European Literature and Culture at the University of Potsdam, chairs the German Association for Ukrainian Studies.
