The Shot Renaissance in Ukrainian Culture

The Executed Renaissance is a scientific-educational, spiritual-cultural, and literary-artistic generation of the 1920s–1930s in the Ukrainian SSR that created outstanding works in literature, philosophy, painting, music, theater, cinema, and science. Representatives of this movement were distinguished by creative independence and individualism, often coming into conflict with the totalitarian regime. Most figures of this era were destroyed during the Great Terror. The topic encompasses research, preservation, and popularization of the legacy of this unique period of Ukrainian culture.
