Abstract

The article reveals the role of representatives of Ukrainian literary intelligentsia in spreading the idea about the need for education among the Ukrainian peasantry of Galicia and Bukovyna.

Their activities in the field of organization of Ukrainian schooling are shown. It is noted that O. Barvinskyi led to the opening of Ukrainian gymnasiums in Przemysl and Stanislaviv, and S. Smal-Stotskyi to the opening of Ukrainian gymnasiums in Vashkivtsi and Chernivtsi.

The activities of Ukrainian writers in the field of writing textbooks for elementary schools and institutions of secondary education are revealed. It was noted that O. Barvinskyi, A. Krushelnytskyi, O. Popovych, Yu. Romanchuk, S. Smal-Stotskyi and I. Franko most of all contributed to this. The peculiarity of the textbooks which they created was that they were based on phonetic spelling, with the involvement of the works of Ukrainian writers, which contributed to the formation of a national conscious generation of Ukrainians.

On the example of I. Bazhanskyi, U. Kravchenko and O. Makovei the positive results of the combination of the talent of the writer and the skill of the school teacher are shown.

Keywords: Galicia, Bukovyna, Ukrainian writers, education
