The article discusses how, in the second half of the nineteenth century, the rising Ukrainian national movement was shaped by references to the Irish and, later, Finnish national causes. The identification of kindred scenarios of national mobilization and their specific interpretation by Ukrainian intellectuals created images of the normative scenario to follow, which the authors call a "relatable Other." By constructing the Irish and the Finns as "relatable Others," the Ukrainian community structured itself as a nation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
