I am a PhD student in Slavic languages with a literary specialization. My dissertation project examines the phenomenon of linguistic conversion from Russian to Ukrainian in contemporary Ukrainian poetry.
My research project examines the phenomenon of linguistic conversion from Russian to Ukrainian in contemporary Ukrainian poetry, with a specific focus on the poet Iya Kiva. Through a close reading of her poetry collections, I explore the thematic representation of Russian-Ukrainian bilingualism and the transition from Russian to Ukrainian in her work.
