Abstract

The relevance of the study of the epistolary heritage of Borys Hrinchenko and Ahatanhel Krymskyi is due to the anthropological turn in literary studies, which affects both the strengthening of the position of biographical studies and the opening of new pages of textology. The purpose of this study is an attempt to reconstruct the epistolary dialogue between Ahatanhel Krymskyi and Borys Hrinchenko in the focus of several problem-thematic clusters. Several problem-thematic clusters are identified, which help to structure the material for a more in-depth analysis. Thus, the «censorship» cluster unfolds the imperial discourse that prevailed during the years of correspondence between the writers, when Muscovy suppressed any manifestations of the Ukrainian national movement. The «reviewing» cluster highlights the respondents’ various roles as writer, philologist, translator, compiler, and ethnographer. In the letters of this thematic focus, we encounter mutual reviews of the artists’ literary and journalistic works. The «national identity» cluster reveals the convictions and discussions of Hrinchenko and Krymsky regarding the concepts of nation, nationality, radicalism, populism, and so forth. The letters testify to a full-fledged dialogue between two outstanding Ukrainian figures of world significance.
