Reading in Ukrainian: Language, Literature, and Culture

Catalog description

This course is for students who can read Ukrainian and wish to practice reading various texts: poetry, folklore, short stories, essays, and larger works. The exact list of texts is discussed and finalized with the class and depends on the interests and proficiency of the students. It varies from semester to semester, and therefore the course can be repeated. The goals of the course are to improve students' reading and speaking fluency, expand their active vocabulary, and deepen their cultural understanding through literature. All discussions are in Ukrainian. While UKRAN 3305 is a natural precursor, it is not required for enrollment. Detailed description at https://ukrainian.as.cornell.edu .
