A Solidarity Narrative: The Soft Power of Ukrainian Wartime Poetry
2024
This article undertakes an analytical reading of the new wave of contemporary Ukrainian poetry after the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine, in particular the poems written and published online and/or in print between 24 February 2022 and May 2023. This Ukrainian post-invasion poetry serves as a cultural response to the war, shaping the national narrative of the war by undertaking a factual and emotional witnessing of the wartime reality and creating an empathetic connection that engenders a solidarity of the international audience with the Ukrainian people. It therefore functions as a tool of soft power which promotes the foreign-policy goals of Ukraine, namely European and transatlantic political solidarity in countering the Russian aggression.

Having exploded on the margins of Europe, Chornobyl marked the
end of the Soviet Union and tied the era of postmodernism in
Western Europe with nuclear consciousness. The Post-Chornobyl
Library in Tamara Hundorova's book becomes a metaphor of a new
Ukrainian literature of the 1990s, which emerges out of the
Chornobyl nuclear trauma of the 26th of April, 1986. Ukrainian
postmodernism turns into a writing of trauma and reflects the
collisions of the post-Soviet time as well as the processes of
decolonization of the national culture. A carnivalization of the
apocalypse is the main paradigm of the post-Chornobyl text, which
appeals to \"homelessness\" and the repetition of \"the end of
histories.\" Ironic language game, polymorphism of characters, taboo
breaking, and filling in the gaps of national culture testify to
the fact that the Ukrainians were liberating themselves from the
totalitarian past and entering the society of the spectacle. Along
this way, the post-Chornobyl character turns into an ironist, meets
with the Other, experiences a split of his or her self, and
witnesses a shift of geo-cultural landscapes.
