Abstract


The article examines the public and personal relations of prominent figures of the Ukrainian national revival of the late XIX - early XX centuries Lesya Ukrainka and Borys Hrinchenko based on documents of personal origin (ego-documents), first of all Lesya Ukrainka's epistolary heritage. It is established that the preserved and published array of the poet's letters is an important source for covering their relations. It is proved that the use of epistolary contributes not only to the reproduction of facts, but also to a better understanding of the atmosphere of events and the conceptual understanding of the Ukrainian socio-political movement and its individual figures. The stages of development of the relationship between Lesya Ukrainka and Borys Hrinchenko are defined and characterized against the background of the author's individuality, her personal understanding and vision of the Ukrainian movement, attitude to the described people and events, as well as the circumstances of the social context.
