It examines a fundamental layer in the making of modern Lviv by focusing on its World-War-Two and postwar transformation from an important multi-ethnic city (formerly known, mostly, as Lw[o acute]w and Lemberg) into a Soviet and Ukrainian urban center"-- Lviv/Lwów/Lemberg before 1939 -- The first Soviet Lviv, 1939-1941 -- The Lemberg of Nazism: German occupation, 1941-1944 -- After Lemberg: the end of the end of Lwów and the making of Lviv -- The founding of industrial Lviv: factories and identities -- Local minds -- Lviv's last synagogue, 1944-1962 -- A Soviet borderland of time |
