He is known as an author of the book “Kobzar”. Shevchenko is also famous for many masterpieces as a painter and an illustrator. There are many monuments to Shevchenko throughout Ukraine. The most notable ones are in Kaniv and in the center of Kyiv, just near- by the Kyiv University. Other famous monuments are located in many Ukrainian cities: in Kharkiv, Lviv, Luhansk, etc. Outside of Ukraine, monuments to Shevchenko have been put up in several locations of the former USSR associated with his legacy, both in the Soviet and the post-Soviet times. The modern monument in Saint Petersburg was erected on December 22, 2000, but the first monument was built in the city in 1918 on the order of Lenin shortly after the Russian Revolution (1917). There is also a monument locat- ed next to the Shevchenko Museum at the square that bears the po- et’s name in Orsk, Russia (the location of the military garrison where the poet served).

    Songwriting and Singing: Ukrainian Revolutionary and Not So Revolutionary Activities in the 1860s Bohdan Klid This paper examines the composition and singing of revolutionary popu- list, patriotic, and nationalist songs by Kyiv-based Ukrainophile students and young intellectuals in the early 1860s. The first part discusses the writing of three songs: two by Anatolii Svydnytsky and one by Pavlo Chubynsky. Svydnytsky was a student at the St. Vladimir University in Kyiv (hereafter Kyiv University) during the years 1857-60, after which he left to teach Russian in a Myrhorod county school in Poltava guber- nia.^ Chubynsky was a law student at St. Petersburg University until the spring of 1861, whereupon he returned to his father’s country home near Boryspil, on the road from Kyiv to Pereiaslav, to write his dissertation.^ Both participated in Ukrainophile activities, which included writing for the St. Petersburg-based Ukrainophile journal Osnova, attending meet- ings of the Hromadas—societies of Ukrainian populist intellectuals in St. Petersburg and Kyiv—and participating in Hromada-sponsored activities, such as endeavors related to popular education, including teaching in Sunday schools and distributing Ukrainian-language popular literature to peasants and city youth.^ ^ On Svydnytsky, see M. Ye. Syvachenko, Anatolii Svydnytsky i zarodzhennia sotsi- alnoho romanu v ukrainskii literaturi (Kyiv: Vydavnytstvo Akademii nauk Ukrainskoi RSR, 1962). He is best known as the author of the first realist novel in Ukrainian, Liu- boratski, which he completed in 1862 but was not published until 1886. ^ On Chubynsky, see Dmytro Cherednychenko, Pavlo Chubynsky (Kyiv: Altematyvy, 2005).
