In the Broad Steppe

To Ukraine in 20 minutes #1
Katarzyna Kotyńska and Tomasz Hodana discuss where Ukraine is located, whether Ukraine is a steppe, and where its name comes from. The audience learn the basics of Ukrainian geography and discover the enormous diversity of individual regions. An important element of the conversation is the Cossack myth, which Kotyńska and Hodana relate to contemporary events, such as Maidan.

The starting point for the conversation is Leon Wyczółkowski's painting "Kurgan in Ukraine."
