I am an Associate Professor of Ukrainian Studies at SOL, where I teach newly launched courses in Ukrainian grammar and communicative skills for beginner and intermediate students.

My research explores various aspects of the Ukrainian language, with a particular focus on dictionaries and literary translation in the historical context of Soviet Ukraine. My work also delves into the strategies employed by translators and lexicographers to resist Russification. Currently, I am a researcher in the project De/colonizing Ukraine: Practices of Russification and Modes of Resistance, 1922-1991, funded by the Foundation for Baltic and East European Studies. Additionally, I am working on the project Translation as Resistance: Language, Politics, and Cultural Colonialism in Post-Stalinist Soviet Ukraine, supported by Inga och John Hain Stiftelse för Vetenskaplig Humanistisk Forskning.

In the Research Portal you can search and find information about all active researchers, units, publications, projects, infrastructures, and more, to get an overview of Lund University research.
