The centre’s major project, producing an English translation of Mykhailo Hrushevsky’s Istoriia Ukrainy-Rusy, has focused its work on the medieval and early modern periods. Three scholarly associates of the centre—Zenon Kohut, Serhii Plokhy, and Frank Sysyn—are specialists in early modern Ukrainian history. In cooperation with Natalia Pylypiuk and Peter Rolland, faculty members of the university’s Slavic Studies Department who specialize in the period, they have expanded research on and teaching about early modern Ukraine at the University of Alberta. Since its founding, the Jacyk Centre has sponsored guest lectures by noted scholars of early modern Ukraine, including David Frick of the University of California, Berkeley; Iaroslav Isaievych of the Institute of Social Sciences at the Academy of Sciences, Lviv; and Antoni Maczak of the University of Warsaw. The Jacyk Centre has undertaken a number of projects to further the development of studies on early modern Ukraine. In conjunction with the Institute of Balkan and Slavic Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, and the Institute of Ukrainian Studies of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, Lviv, it is publishing a series of sources on seventeenth-century Ukrainian history in Russian archives. The centre’s English-language monograph series will include several volumes on the period, the first of which will be Ihor Sevéenko’s Ukraine between East and West: Essays in Cultural History (to the 1700s). The centre’s Ukrainian- language monograph series, undertaken in conjunction with the Archaeographic Institute of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, also concentrates on the early modern period. In 1994, it will publish a translation of Zenon Kohut’s Russian Centralism and Ukrainian Autonomy. The centre has also been instrumental in enabling specialists on the early modern period from Ukraine to carry on archival projects in Poland. This special volume of the Journal of Ukrainian Studies began as a project to publish the papers given at a panel on relations among Belarusians, Ukrainians, and Russians from the sixteenth to the seven- teenth centuries, sponsored by the Jacyk Centre at the Fourth World Congress for Soviet and East European Studies at Harrogate, England, on 26 July 1990. When additional papers on the subject were received, it D, became feasible to devote a double issue of the journal to early modern Ukraine. Dushan Bednarsky, a graduate student in Slavic Studies at the University of Alberta, undertook and accomplished the editing of the volume, together with Frank Sysyn and Zenon Kohut. The editors are grateful to the editorial board of Zion for permitting the publication of Shmuel Ettinger’s article; we also thank Alan Rutkowski for translating the article from Hebrew into English, and Lynn Hirsch and Gershon Hundert for editorial advice. We thank Peter Rolland for his careful reading of the proofs of this volume. Uliana Pasicznyk has rendered editorial assistance in the production of the volume, and Nancy Misener has entered editorial corrections with care. ID).}8), [LaglK e legs).
