EDMONTON: Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies Press, 2011. Paperback, $29.95; hardcover, $59.95. Argentina, the eighth-largest country in the world, has relied heavily on immigration to boost its population. In 1914 some 30 percent of the Argentine population was classified as foreign-born. Between the 1890s and 1940s tens of thousands of settlers from Ukraine made their way to that Southern Hemisphere republic. Indeed, Ukrainians constituted the largest of the Slavic groups to immigrate to Argentina and formed significant communities in the provinces of Misiones, Chaco, Mendoza and Buenos Aires. “Ukrainians in Argentina, 1897-1950: The Making of a Community” recounts the immigrant contribution to Ukrainian cultural, political, religious, and other organizations in Argentina. The book is based on research conducted in the archives of both Ukraine and Argentina; it also draws on the immigrant press. The chapters are arranged chronologically, the first dealing with the initial, pre- 1914 wave of Ukrainian settlement and the last with the third wave that came after World War II. Two middle chapters are case studies of two organizations founded in the interwar period. The author’s examination of ties developed with Ukrainians in other countries also provides insights into the nature and activity of organizations created in neighbouring Paraguay and Uruguay. The author of this study, Serge Cipko, is coordinator of the Ukrainian Diaspora Studies Initiative at CIUS. He is the author of “St. Josaphat’s Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral, Edmonton: A History (1902– 2002)” and co-author (with Glenna Roberts) of “One-Way Ticket: The Soviet Return-to-the-Homeland Campaign, 1955–1960.” He is also co-editor (with Natalie Kononenko) of “Champions of Philanthropy: Peter and Doris Kule and Their Endowments.” “Ukrainians in Argentina” is available in paperback ($29.95) and hardcover ($59.95) (plus taxes and shipping; outside Canada, prices are in U.S. dollars).

No. 50 THE UKRAINIAN WEEKLY SUNDAY, DECEMBER 11, 2011 13 Christine Syzonenko Whippany parish production spotlights “Medieval Ukraine” WHIPPANY, N.J. – The most recent production of the parish theater troupe of St. John the Baptist Ukrainian Catholic Church in Whippany, N.J., was “Medieval Ukraine,” a theatrical presentation of Ukraine’s history during the princely era. The event took place at the Ukrainian American Cultural Center of New Jersey on October 30 and was a fund-raiser for the new St. John’s Church that will be built next to the UACCNJ. The director of the presentation and the author of scenario was Dr. Roksolana Leschuk. The cast included parishioners of all ages, plus dancers from the Iskra Ukrainian Dance Academy, which is based at the UACCNJ and is directed by Andrij Cybyk. The evening also featured a dinner followed by a dance to the music of Fata Morgana. Previous presentations by the parish drama troupe celebrated harvest traditions, a Hutsul wedding and the glory of the Kozaks. On this page are scenes from the presentation highlighting Kyivan Rus’ royalty, medieval warriors and Ukrainian customs, as well as a photo of Dr. Leschuk, who was presented a bouquet of flowers at the conclusion of the show.
