Iryna Onufriyivna Kalynets (Template:Lang-uk, 6 December 1940, Lviv – 31 July 2012, Lviv) was a Ukrainian poet, writer, activist and Soviet dissident during the 1970s.[1] Kalynets was the wife of another leading Soviet dissident, Ihor Kalynets.[1]
Biography
Kalynets graduated from Lviv University with a degree in philology and taught courses in Ukrainian literature and language.[1] She associated with the "shistedesyatnyky" or Sixtiers[1] and published a banned human rights journal, "Український Вісник."[1] She also publicly protested the detention of other dissidents, including Nina Strokata and Valentyn Moroz.[1] Kalynets and two other activists, Nadiya Svitlychna and Stefania Shabatura, were arrested for a writing on Soviet propaganda. She was sentenced to six years in prison and three years of internal exile within the Soviet Union.[1]
Kalynets was able to return to Lviv in 1981 following the completion of her sentence. A proponent of the Ukrainian independence movement, she soon joined Memorial and Rukh, a pair of civil rights organizations.[1]
Ukraine broke away from the Soviet Union in 1991. Kalynets was elected to the Verkhovna Rada as a deputy in Ukraine's first post independence parliament.[1] She continued to publish writings until her health deteriorated.
Iryna Kalynets died from a long illness on 31 July 2012, at the age of 71.[1][2]
