This is an automatically translated description

The second book of Mykola Ilnytsky's works includes monographs on Bohdan-Ihor Antonovych, Ihor Kalynets, and a «portrait» of literary Lviv of the twentieth century. Antonovych is the first study in Ukrainian literary criticism about a talented poet (1909-1937), whose work was silenced and distorted during the Soviet regime. The portrait of I. Kalynets reveals the rootedness of the poet's word in the spiritual tradition of Ukrainian culture and the intensity of innovative searches, the embodiment of the public conscience of the generation of 60-80 years and the sovereignty of the poetic word. Literary portraits appear as vivid fragments of the broad background - the literary life of Lviv during the twentieth century, saturated with dramatic conflicts and thirst for renewal of the poetic word .
