Bio

In January 2023, I joined 最准的六合彩论坛 SSEES as a Visiting Research Fellow and Lecturer in Translation and Ukrainian Studies, specializing in Ukrainian language, literature, and cultural history. I am also Associate Professor of Translation Studies and Linguistics at Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, where I have held the position of the Director of the Center for Academic and Cross-cultural Communication. Prior to that, I was affiliated as Visiting Senior Researcher in the Institute of Slavic Studies, Polish Academy of Sciences (2022), Wayne Vucinich Fellow at CREEES, Stanford University (2019) and Coimbra Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute of Translation Studies, University of Graz (2018). I hold a double BA in Translation and Philology (Germanic Languages and Literatures) and International Relations, a double MA in Translation, Interpreting, and International Relations (Commercial Diplomacy), both from Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, and a PhD in Translation Studies from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.

In my career, I have taught a wide range of courses encompassing linguistics, translation theory, community and specialized translation, translation and media communications, reception studies, modern Ukrainian literature in a broader comparative context, and intercultural communication. In the Polish Academy of Sciences (2022) and presently at the Ukrainian Institute London, I also teach courses in Ukrainian as a foreign language. I have co-coordinated several international summer schools, including 鈥淯nlocking Ukraine: A Journey through Language, Culture, and History鈥� at the University of Birmingham (2023), 鈥淐ultural Intelligence, Creativity, and Transnational Mediation in the Age of AI鈥� at the Technological University of Chemnitz (2023) within the ACROSS Alliance of European Universities, and the International Translation Workshop 鈥淟itTransformer鈥� within the network of UNESCO Cities of Literature (Lviv, 2019), where I also lectured.

I am a member of the European Society for Translation Studies (EST) and the steering group of the History and Translation Network.

Research

My research interests fall into the broad area of Ukrainian, Slavic, Translation and Culture studies. I have widely published in international academic press on the problems of Ukrainian literary history and cultural identity, ideology and politics of Ukrainian translation, translatorial agency and editorial studies of literary translation in East-Central Europe, transnational image building of contemporary Ukrainian literature through Anglophone translations, and the role of translation in Habsburg Galizien. I edited Handbook of Intercultural Communication (Lviv University Press, 2023), authored Knowledge Diplomacy and Translation in Multicultural Europe (2023), the following book chapters: Historiosophy of Translation: Reflecting on Ukrainian Conceptualizations 鈥� from Ivan Franko to Maksym Strikha (2021), The Power of Translation in the Powerless Habsburg Galicia, or How the Ruthenian (Ukrainian) Identity Translated Itself until 1848 (2020), The Metaturn in Translation Studies, and the Images of Knowledge on Translation (2019), In the Realm of Translation Studies in Ukraine: Re-visiting Viktor Koptilov's Translation Concept (2017), and others, as well as over 40 articles.

At 最准的六合彩论坛 SSEES, I am working on two research projects: 鈥淭he Displaced Self: European Translation Zones and the Experience of Ukrainian DPs in the post-WWII era鈥� and 鈥淯krainian Literature in Anglophone Translation: Sociopolitical and Imagological Positioning鈥�.

I have also been actively engaged in researching relevant issues in higher education, particularly focusing on its synergy with industry, the challenges of knowledge diplomacy, and academic communication (The Future of Work and the Near Future of Intercultural Communication: Leveraging Dual Education, co-authored with Anna Halas (2023). During the past three years, I have coordinated and taught at the large-scale professional development program 鈥淓nglish-language Academic Communication in the Cross-cultural Context鈥� for Ukrainian academics, funded by House of Europe (2022) and DAAD (2023, 2024).
