Project info: Chernivtsi – little Vienna or European Alexandria, city which was speaking 5 languages and had more bookstores than bakeries, is a living example of multicultural community with its own cultural Mythos. Some stories of the city are well known – synagogue becoming cinema, Romanian mayor Trayan Popovici rescuing 20000 Jews during WW2, Jewish girl Miriam Taylor surviving ghetto and WW2, its famous people – Paul Celan, Rose Auslaender, Mihai Eminescu, Olha Kobylyanska etc. During the project we plan to discover and study these stories–and many others, in order to describe and creatively present multiethnic and multicultural Chernivtsi
