Literary readings dedicated to the 120th anniversary of the birth of Ivan Bahrianyi were held in groups 2RP-12 (lecturer I. M. Rudets) and 2KH-11 (lecturer N. M. Komar) — a prominent Ukrainian writer, publicist, poet and public figure, one of those whose work affirmed the unbroken spirit of Ukraine, the ideas of freedom and national dignity.
During the event, students had the opportunity to learn more about the life and work of the artist, who went through a difficult life path, suffered persecution by the Soviet authorities, but did not renounce his convictions and love for Ukraine. His literary legacy stands as a testament to courage, inner strength and a person's faith in their own dignity even in the most difficult circumstances.
Participants paid particular attention to the work of Ivan Bahrianyi, including his well-known works “Tyholovy” and “The Gethsemane Garden”, which explore themes of the struggle for freedom, resistance to the totalitarian system, the indomitable human spirit and the pursuit of justice.
The literary readings provided students with an opportunity to consider the relevance of the writer's work, to feel the power of his words and to reflect on important values — freedom, patriotism, responsibility for the fate of one's country and resilience in the face of life's challenges.
Such events contribute to the formation of national consciousness among young people, to fostering respect for Ukrainian literature and to preserving historical memory. Indeed, the work of Ivan Bahrianyi sounds remarkably relevant today, reminding us that even in the most difficult times a person must remain true to themselves, their ideals and their homeland Ukraine.
We remember outstanding Ukrainians, we read Ukrainian literature, we cherish national dignity!
