Art meeting «Catch Skovoroda: mission (un)accomplished?» with the participation of kobzar Yaroslav Krysko

Заставка заходу

On the 300th anniversary of Hryhorii Skovoroda, Moscow targeted the museum of the Ukrainian philosopher in the Kharkiv region. Its goal is obvious – to wipe Ukrainians, including Skovoroda, off the face of the earth. The enemy still has not understood that we are indestructible, and the power of Skovoroda’s thoughts, words and deeds lived and will live on.

The embodiment of this power is, in particular, the new book «Catch Skovoroda», written at the International Institute of Education, Culture and Diaspora Relations, Lviv Polytechnic National University. Its main character Hryhorii Skovoroda enters the present, traveling to the most important places of his memory. The presented edition is designed to bring the figure of the philosopher closer to both foreigners who are loyal to Ukraine and who study our language, and Ukrainians who are eager to learn about the culture of their people. Our mission is to catch and understand Skovoroda.

IECDR celebrates the release of the book with an artistic meeting with the participation of special musical guest Yaroslav Krysko, workshop master of the Lviv Kobzar workshop, member of the Khoreia Kozatska band, laureate of the Shevchenko Prize 2023. We invite you to the event on February 28 in the modern Student Space «3rd floor» in the Scientific and Technical Library of Lviv Polytechnic (3 Mytropolyta Andreia Street).

Participation in the event is free of charge. It starts at 15:00.
