THE LITERATURE OF UKRAINE

The literature of Ukraine has a 1, ООО-year history. Of great importance for the growth of literature was the establishment in L'viv of the first printing press by Ivan Fedorov in 1574.

In the late 1700s Ivan Kotliarevsky wrote his famous epic poem «Eneida». Full of Ukrainian folk witticisms and realistic portraits, it was hugely successful. Kot­liarevsky was the first who introduced living folk speech into Ukrainian literature.

The appearance of Taras Shevchenko's Kobzar (1840) us­hered in an epoch of romanticism and national self-conscious­ness. Taras Shevchenko reflected the hopes and aspirations of the nation in the best folk poetic traditions.

Realism flourished in the nineteenth century. I. Nechui- Levytsky and P. Myrny were masters of realistic prose. The end of the nineteenth century produced literary giants such as Ivan Franko and Lesya Ukrayinka, who with their fighting spirit spurred Ukrainians on in their struggle for self-realization. At the close of the century modernism took the place of realism. For example, M. Kotsiubynsky had an impressionis­tic style of writing concentrated on the reproduction of pas­sing impressions and the exploration of psyche.

The twentieth century began with Renaissance in li­terature (1920s). Many literary groups and organizations were formed; new, young writers' works were published; fresh magazines appeared. Some prominent names from this period: M. Kulish, M. Khvyliovy, M. Zerov, V. Sosiura. By the 1930s the great terror began, with its purges, show trials and repression. Most of the writers were either killed or driven to suicide. It is estimated that over 250 writers perished during this period. Those who survived (V. Sosiura, P. Tychyna, M. Rylsky) were forced to write on themes suitable for the Communist Party. Despite the violent death of so many writers, Ukrainian literature gave the world such well-known names as O. Honchar and a writer and a film director O. Dovzhenko.

A group of writers from the 1960s, known as the «Shestydesiatnyky» («The Sixtiers»), took advantage of a po­litical thaw initiated by Khrushchov after the death 6f Sta­lin, and revitalized Ukrainian literature. The most prominent among them are: L. Kostenko, V. Symonenko, H. Tiutiunnyk, D. Pavlychko, I. Drach, I. Dziuba, V. Stus, I. Svitlychny, V. Shevchuk.

Today Ukrainian literature is continuing to develop.
