Усні сповіді біженців від російсько-української війни як фольклорний та історичний матеріал

Abstract

The article is devoted to new research on the cultural adaptation processes of Ukrainian refugees in Poland using their questionnaires and records of oral testimonies about their experiences. Human confessions have become valuable material for folklorists, ethnologists, and historians, so their documentation as archival sources is important. The studies use a comparative method of analysing the collected texts. Attention will be paid to using human confessions as source material reflecting the Ukrainian mentality, folk traditions, and national identity. A joint Ukrainian-Polish project will be presented between the Rylsky Institute of Modern and International Studies of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences.
