This unique publication presents the entire poetry translation oeuvre of Yaroslava Shekera. Throughout the centuries, poetics and philosophy have changed many times. Different religious beliefs and secular customs succeeded one another. And artists always tried to express their worldview, leaving the gems of their lyrics for us in the forms typical for their time.

Inside, the readers will find the translations, commentaries that help interpret the imagery, short intros about the authors, art movements, and historical circumstances, as well as an informative foreword about Yaroslava Shekera’s life and creative work written by Dmytro Chystiak.
