The research took several years of intensive archival work, interviews, and conversations, and also involved a search for private archives, which I was told had vanished or had been destroyed. During that time Stepan Zakharkin, Yaryna Tsymbal, and Mykola Klymchuk from the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, provided an infallible, timely, and invaluable help. Multiple con­versations with Ihor Kachurovs’kyi from Munich and Oksana Chykalenko from New York, witnesses of the Ukrainian renaissance of the late 1920s and early 1930s, helped me delve into the Ukrainian cultural atmosphere of that period. My parents, Myron and Svitlana Petrovs’kyi, helped obtain copies of rare photo and documentary material from the most inaccessible archives. John Bushnell, George Grabowicz, Mikhail Krutikov, Oleh Ilnytzkyj, Glenn Dynner, Meghann Pytka, Myroslav Shkandrij, and the late John Klier read either parts or all of the manuscript and made comments that allowed me to hone my argument. Four re- viewers—two selected by the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute and two by Yale University Press—have read the entire manuscript; I am indebted to them for their suggestions, corrections, and “big” questions they wanted me to think about while reworking the manuscript for the press. My most sincere gratitude to Jonathan Brent, whose enthusiasm about the manuscript made possible its publication as a book. I am indebted to the editors of Yale University Press, first and foremost Annelise Finegan and Jack Borrebach, for their patience and dili­gence in dealing with the manuscript, and to Eliza Childs, Yale University Press copy editor, for her amazing sense of logic, style, and consistency.
