Revolutionaries

"Revolutionaries" are women who, at the beginning of the 20th century, were thinking about new ideas, gaining previously unknown experiences, being in the midst of events and recording personal experiences and upheavals experienced by Europe and divided Ukraine. These texts by classic women, found in libraries and archives and arranged by literary critic Anastasiia Yevdokymova, are portraits of women in turbulent times. This is a careful look at reporters and documentarians who are rethinking the new era and themselves. The collection includes artistic and journalistic works by Khrystia Alchevska, Lidiia Horbachova, Nataliia Romanovych-Tkachenko and Kharytia Kononenko - stories of personal transformations and irreversible social processes. The foreword by artist Olena Pavlova shows the behind-the-scenes life of revolutionaries: what the era of these women was like and what they were like - strong-willed, active and outside the box.
