Undoubtedly, there will be people who know Maksym Tadeyovych as an outstanding translator, who gave us "Mr. Tadeusz" by Mickiewicz. Rylsky was indeed a multifaceted artist. His poetic rise took place during the turbulent times Already in the collection “Noice of the last century: in 1910 the first collection and Echo”(Shum i Homin) in 1919, "On the White Islands" was published. the poet published the first translations, which showed that Rylsky has a knack for this activity. His choice fell on the poems of such famous and poets as Henri de Rainier, Valery Bryusov, Van Lerberg, Paul Verlaine, Stefan Mallarme, Maurice Maeterlinck, Adam Mickiewicz, Athanasius Fett.
