The Paradox of Ukrainian Lviv reveals the local and transnational forces behind the twentieth-century transformation of Lviv into a Soviet and Ukrainian urban center. Lviv's twentieth-century history was marked by violence, population changes, and fundamental transformation ethnically, linguistically, and in terms of its residents' self-perception. Against this background, Tarik Cyril Amar explains a striking paradox: Soviet rule, which came to Lviv in ruthless Stalinist shape and lasted for half a century, left behind the most Ukrainian version of the city in history. In reconstructing this dramatically profound change, Amar illuminates the historical background in present-day identities and tensions within Ukraine.

After World War II, Europe witnessed the massive redrawing of national borders and the efforts to make the population fit those new borders. As a consequence of these forced changes, both Lviv and Wrocław went through cataclysmic changes in population and culture. Assertively Polish prewar Lwów became Soviet Lvov, and then, after 1991, it became assertively Ukrainian Lviv. Breslau, the third largest city in Germany before 1945, was in turn "recovered" by communist Poland as Wrocław. Practically the entire population of Breslau was replaced, and Lwów's demography too was dramatically restructured: many Polish inhabitants migrated to Wrocław and most Jews perished or went into exile. The forced migration of these groups incorporated new myths and the construction of official memory projects. The chapters in this edited book compare the two cities by focusing on lived experiences and "bottom-up" historical processes. Their sources and methods are those of micro-history and include oral testimonies, memoirs, direct observation and questionnaires, examples of popular culture, and media pieces. The essays explore many manifestations of the two sides of the same coin—loss on the one hand, gain on the other—in two cities that, as a result of the political reality of the time, are complementary.

To offer a broad historical and contemporary portrait of the European city Lviv, John Czaplicka has gathered together a wide range of scholars from the areas of historiography, history, art and architectural history, urban planning, literary history and criticism, and cultural history. Known variously over the centuries as Leopolis, Lw w, Lvov, and Lemberg, this city served as laboratory for the forging of modern Jewish, Polish, and Ukrainian identities. Historically, Armenians, Germans, Jews, Poles, and Ukrainians interacted in this Galician and formerly Polish and Habsburg metropolis. The resulting confluence of cultures in this now Ukrainian city was at times violent, but each of the ethnic groups and religions residing in the city contributed to its urban, urbane, and truly European character. This volume emphasizes the richness of the local cultural heritage. The collection derives from revised papers presented at a conference sponsored jointly by the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies and the Ukrainian Research Institute at Harvard University. Other authors were invited to round out the picture of a European city in the shifting crosscurrents of cultures.

The book discusses the Polish-Ukrainian conflict over Lviv. Both nations desired to strengthen their standing in a war-ravaged Europe. Fighting broke out in what had previously been a shared city, ending with a Polish victory. The book also describes the ethnic cleansing of Jews and the memories that still haunt Polish-Ukrainian relations.

Lviv is a city in western Ukraine and a UNESCO world heritage site. Founded in the late Middle Ages by King Danylo and named after his son Lev, Lviv thrived as a major commercial and religious centre, attracting artists, craftsmen, and intellectuals from all over the world. The influences of this multi-ethnic tapestry – Ukrainian, Armenian, German, Jewish, Polish, Italian and Austrian – are felt in the city today in its majestic boulevards, charming squares, and vibrant café culture.This book is a result of two trips to Ukraine between 2013 and 2014. Lviv was not meant to be my final destination, but once there I could not resist the temptation to linger, to wander its winding cobblestone streets, and to reflect on what makes this place cast such a spell on its visitors.Before long I realised that although Lviv’s Art Nouveau buildings, Renaissance mansions, and Baroque churches give it a distinctive ambiance, it is the people that make this town special: laughing and praying, rushing on their daily errands, and slowing down to enjoy a drink; welcoming children into the world and seeing young men off to war – life in Lviv is intense and touching.I hereby share my humble declaration of love for Lviv, a hidden treasure in the heart of Europe.
