ABSTRACT This article examines Akhtem Seitablaiev’s 2017 film, 87 Children, which depicts Stalin’s 1944 deportation of the Crimean Tatars through the prism of another genocide – the Nazis’ 1941–1943 murder of Crimean Jews. It uses Michael Rothberg’s theory of multidirectional memory to illustrate how the history of the Holocaust, Stalin’s deportation of the Crimean Tatars, and the personal story of the film’s protagonists conflate in Seitablaiev’s work in an attempt both to foreground silenced pasts and to comment on the pernicious instrumentalization of history in Putin’s Crimea. Seitablaiev makes an important contribution to the deconstruction of competition and hierarchies within traumatic histories of the peninsula, offering new forms of solidarity and new visions of justice – all of which are found in the specificities, overlaps, and echoes of different historical experiences that continue to shape current events in post-annexation Crimea.

ABSTRACT While not a central locale in modern Jewish poetry, Crimea nevertheless garnered the attention of several important poets in significant works. Their interest was galvanized at the intersection of their individual biographies and earlier classic literature on Crimea and the Black Sea. This article will focus on key works by the Hebrew poet Shaul Tshernikhovski and the Yiddish poet Perets Markish as writers in Jewish languages, and will then turn briefly to the work of a Jewish poet in a non-Jewish language, the Russian poet Osip Mandelstam, with the goal of understanding the ways in which Crimea became a focal site for Jewish literary considerations of emplacement.

This book explores the ideological origins and practical implementation of Ukrainian economic nationalism in interwar Poland and its influence on Poles and Jews. The author shows that the main activities of economic nationalism focused on competition in trade and commerce—namely, attempts to gain economic dominance in the cities and to acquire control over rural land. According to Dolhanov, economic nationalism was one of the main factors contributing to interethnic conflict in interwar Poland.

ABSTRACT This article explores three Yiddish poets who placed Crimea at the center of a Jewish and proletarian world-building project. Khana Levin, Esther Shumiatsher, and Peretz Markish all published their work in the Kharkiv-based Yiddish journal Di royte velt (Red World) in the late 1920s and presented Crimea as a home for outsiders. The article begins with a discussion of Khana Levin’s Crimean Motifs. It next turns to Peretz Markish’s Brothers. The final case study is of Esther Shumiatsher. These three examples present Crimea as a site for Jewish writers to radically rethink what it meant to be an “Other” in Eastern Europe.

This short, well-written book is the first (!) published monograph in German about the so-called Operation Reinhardt, during which the Germans murdered some 1.8 million Jews in German-occupied Poland between 1942–1943. Lehnstaedt details the operation from the perspective of the perpetrators, showing the complex decision-making processes, structure, and implementation of the extermination. He also presents the viewpoint of the Jewish victims, citing extensively from Jewish survivors’ testimonies as well as offering an account of the postwar trials of the perpetrators and the place of the main extermination camps in the culture of memory.

ABSTRACT In this article, I seek to trace two main agendas of contemporary Russophone poetry about Crimea: namely, to react to the re-annexation of 2014 by Russia, and, in so doing, to inscribe this event into the preceding poetic tradition of writing on Crimea in terms of continuity or juxtaposition. Analysis of the anthology Our Crimea (2014) reveals intense polyphony, from the problematization of the notion of historical belonging to attempts to anesthetize the painful present with texts of nostalgia for the Crimean idealized past. Following this, close readings of two poem cycles about Crimea, one authored by Aleksandr Kushner and the other by Boris Khersonsky, show that, despite their opposing political views, both poets express their ideas by means of recycling various tropes of Crimea’s representation in Russian Modernist poetry. In sum, Crimea remains not only the focus of geopolitical conflict, but also a highly contested literary site for Russophone poets.
