Abstract

The article is devoted to a retrospective study of the Ukrainian foreign press in Europe, specifically the francophone press in France from 1919 to 1921 and the historical (as well as socio-political and geopolitical) context of its emergence. During our fieldwork in Ukrainian and Western libraries and archives (mainly in France), we managed to rediscover, identify, classify and subsequently analyze these periodicals by inspecting them ourselves. It appears that all the socio-political periodicals that were able to be studied can be classified into three types based on their ideological orientation: the Ukrainian-centric press; the Ukrainian-Russophile periodicals; and the Ukrainian press aimed internationally . We have concluded that this cluster of the Ukrainian francophone press in France had an ambivalent « hybrid » character. These publications fulfilled different functions: informational, propagandist, counter-propagandist, communicative and socio-cultural.
