The Ukrainian Language In The First Half Of The Twentieth Century by George Y. Shevelov
Its State and Status
A concise sociolinguistic history of Ukrainian between 1900 and 1941, it traces how competing political regimes shaped the language’s standardization, orthography, and public functions. It highlights the 1920s policy of Ukrainization and the subsequent 1930s rollback and Russification, examines education, administration, and publishing, contrasts developments in Soviet and non-Soviet Ukrainian lands under Poland, Romania, and Czechoslovakia, and evaluates how shifting power structures affected both linguistic norms and societal status.
