This is an automatically translated description

Levko Borovykovsky was a Ukrainian poet, ethnographer, and folklorist of the 19th century. His poetry is characterised by a distinctive attraction to the aesthetics of Romanticism. He pioneered the ballad genre in Ukrainian literature. In the end, it was he who established the genre of the literary ballad in Ukrainian literature. In addition, a very important part of Levko Borovykovsky's work is his work as a fabulist. The writer's oeuvre includes 600 fables, but only about 200 have been found. The peculiarity of Borovikovsky's fables is their brevity and the absence of the author's moral conclusion: the writer confines himself to an aphorism or a saying at the end.
