In the article the anti-Russian vector of Yuriy Fedkovych life and creativity, first of all, his writer's form of expression has been analyzed. For that the reception of that issue by the official Soviet critics was considered and the factors that promoted the development of Y. Fedkovych frankly negativist attitude to the Moscow regime were determined. At the same time, it was accentuated on Shevchenko's influences and direct contacts with opposition-minded to Moscow Galician socio-cultural figures. Thus, the ideologization of feelings took place, the understanding of his own identity had been changing, not only as Hutsul, but also as Ukrainian.
The main attention in the article is paid to the studying of works full of acute political, ideological, national, anti-Moscow content. That were the poem dedicated to Shevchenko, the journalistic article «Lest not be too late!», the true litigation to the imperial system and the Galician-Bukovynian Moscophiles, and works from the last period of activity. That was about journalistic pathos in a number of poetry, the image of Mazepa as a great adherent of the Ukrainian «independent state without the patronizing by Moskal or Lakh» in the original translation of the drama by R. Gottshal «Mazepa», as well as about the original tragedy «Khmelnytskyi» by Y. Fedkovych. The protagonist of that work incredibly suffered from the decision to make an alliance with Moscovia.
The article also pointed to the prospects of the studied topic and its acute relevance for contemporary times.
