Description:
London, UK: Glagoslav Publications, 2013. Paperback. Near Fine. INSCRIBED BY PETER FEDYNSKY (Editor) on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; personal gift inscription on title page; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Who better to tell the story of Ukraine than a Kobzar, one of the country's blind wandering minstrels that sang of its history and people? It is this iconic and entertaining figure, who walked the land and conveyed its traditions, that serves as the prism through which Taras Shevchenko composed his pioneering collection of poems, The Kobzar. As a foundational text, The Kobzar has played an important role in galvanizing the Ukrainian identity and in the development of Ukrainian literature and its written language.
