There are two important points on the cultural map of the modern Ukrainian language: Bad Ems, where a decree was issued to convince the world that the Ukrainian language does not exist, has not existed, and cannot exist, and Strasbourg, where on March 21, 2022, Ukrainian was granted the status of the future official language of the European Union.
Orysia Demska tells about the origin and development of the Ukrainian language from the Indo-European language to the present day, its interaction with other languages, the history of mutual enrichment, the irreconcilable confrontation with Russian, and the course of linguistic crises from which it emerged victorious.
Accessible information about the formation of Ukrainian statehood and national identity through language and by language.
