Kobzar Apocrypha

Welcome! This channel is an artistic, literary, and philosophical project designed to let the Kobzar speak in our time.

It features original, author-penned works and literary texts tackling today’s pressing political and social issues, crafted in a unique stylistic emulation of Taras Shevchenko’s poetics, prose, and thought. 

Why "Apocrypha"? Because these texts do not officially belong to the classic's pen. Why "prophetic"? Because through the lens of Shevchenko’s worldview, philosophy, and artistic perspective, we analyze current events in Ukraine and the world, reviving his voice for modern generations. 

This project is created solely for educational, artistic, and research purposes as a large-scale creative experiment. Join us in philosophically reflecting on the present through timeless classics.
