Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Amvrosii Metlynsky was a Ukrainian poet, ethnographer, and professor, and publisher. Metlynsky was a professor of Russian Literature at Kharkiv University from 1843 49, and again from 1854 58. From 1849 54 he was a professor at Kiev University. During the 1830s, the city of Kharkiv became the center of Ukrainian Romanticism. Metlynsky and other authors such as Izmail Sreznevsky and Mykola Kostomarov published ethnographic materials, native interpretations of Ukrainian history, and collections of folk legends and Cossack chronicles. In 1839, he published a collection of poetry called Dumky i pisni ta shche deshcho (Thoughts and Songs and Some Other Things) under his pseudonym Amvrosii Mohyla. In 1848, he published an anthology of works by other Kharkiv poets called Iuzhnyi russkii sbornik (Southern Russian Anthology). Metlynsky's poetry contains his nostalgia for the glories of the Ukrainian past, which he believed were destined never to return. He described his poetry as "the work of the last bandurist who passes on the song of the past in a dying language".
