Marci Shore: Maidan, Up Close and Personal

This event was recorded in September 2017 at the Vienna Humanities Festival.
Maidan: Up Close, and Personal
While the world watched the uprising on the Maidan as an episode in geopolitics, those in Ukraine lived the revolution of 2013-14 as an existential transformation.
Yale University Professor Marci Shore, one of the world’s finest explorers of Eastern Europe, evokes the human face of the Ukrainian Revolution in her forthcoming book “The Ukrainian Night”.
In a conversation with Ukrainian journalist ­­­­­­­Angelina Kariakina, she offers an exclusive preview of her lyrical and intimate account that blends the true stories of activists and soldiers, parents and children with a historian’s reflections on what revolution is and means.
