Анотація:
Ukrainian Dumy, the folk heroic epics of Cossack Ukraine, speak of glorious deeds in battle. They tell of heroes who conquer three hundred, six hundred, and even nine hundred of the Tatar enemy single-handedly. They describe loyalty to comrades and self-sacrifice for the good of others and for the prosperity of Ukraine. They tell of men who endure enormous pain and still keep fighting for the sake of their homeland. They convey a simple, down-to-earth ethic of recognizing a person for what he is, rather than for the money, fine clothes, or social status he possesses.
