History of Ukraine from Grandfather Svyryd. Book 1

The first volume of the book "History of Ukraine from Grandfather Svyryd" by a Ukrainian blogger known on Facebook under the name "Svyryd Opanasovych". The book is written in a style that is closest to the World History in the Satyricon treatment. However, the author's presentation of the material is distinguished by a more scientific attitude to historical details, the depth of analysis of cause and effect relationships, and therefore can be used as a reliable version of historical material not only for anyone who is simply interested in history, but also for pupils and students. A feature of the author's genre is the "revival" of historical heroes in the format of dialogues and the involvement of readers in the analysis of historical events.

Volume one covers the period from primitive people and the settlement of the territory of Ukraine until 1036.

History of Ukraine from Grandfather Svyryd. Book 2

The second book of "History of Ukraine from Svyryd's grandfather", written at the request of many thousands of readers of the famous Facebook blogger Svyryd Opanasovych. The author's signature style is strict adherence to historical truth, which, however, is presented in the light and witty form of a story by a village grandfather. The historical events depicted by the author are full of humour and subtle irony, and the historical characters are alive and communicate with each other. Thus, the first book, published in 2016, quickly gained great popularity and received enthusiastic reviews from both the general readership and historians.

It can be used as a source of interesting historical material for pupils and students. The second book covers the period of the XI-XIV centuries, from Yaroslav the Wise to the Battle of the Blue Waters.

The text preserves the peculiarities of the author's writing.

History of Ukraine from Grandfather Svyryd. Book 3

Book three of the History of Ukraine from Grandfather Svyryd covers the period from the Union of Krewe in 1385 to the Union of Brest in 1596. For Europe, it was an era of geopolitical upheavals that directly affected Ukrainian lands, so the author analyses the circumstances of the defeat of the Teutonic Order, the fall of Constantinople, the collapse of the Golden Horde, the consequences of the Great Geographical Discoveries, the Little Ice Age, etc.

Thus enriching the reader's understanding of the real historical circumstances in which the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth emerged and the Zaporozhian Sich was created and strengthened. The dozens of characters in the book - from Vytautas and Tokhtamysh to the Ostroh princes, Nalyvaiko and Kishka - are real historical figures whose figures are not varnished: the author tells about the heroes and anti-heroes of Ukrainian history as if they were living people. The books of this series do not belong to the genre of "folk history", they consistently promote scientific views on history.

The peculiar style of presenting historical material on behalf of the village historian, Svyryd's grandfather, adds colour to the books and helps to more easily absorb large amounts of scientifically verified historical knowledge. For a wide range of readers.
