Abstract

Modern life has outlined the issue of the Ukrainian nation, Ukrainian culture more actual and dolorous. Ukraine came into the world's attention not only due to geopolitical events and reasons, but also due to its cultural heritage, which undoubtedly deserves observation and analysis.

The concept of identity was defined differently in the sixties of the twentieth century. The young generation known as the "sixties" focused not on place and appearance, but on memory and attitudes.
