Ivan Kotliarevsky - the First Modern Ukrainian Writer

Ivan Kotliarevsky (1769-1838) was the first modern Ukrainian writer who wrote in actual Ukrainian. His parody "Eneida" followed some rowdy Ukrainian Cossacks on their journey to/from Troy. His other works included the great play - "Natalka Poltavka", which was the last play performed at the Kyiv Opera Theatre before the 2022 invasion. Kotliarevsky was also a military veteran and even mobilized his fellow Ukrainians against Napoleon in 1812! How did he influence Ukrainian literary history? Why was he so cool and such a great party guest? Find out in this episode of Wandering the Edge!
