Extract

The earliest extant dramatic texts written in Ukraine date from the sixteenth century. I shall discuss dramatic texts that were written in Ukraine and not “Ukrainian texts” because in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and even partly in the eighteenth, works were written for the stage in Ukraine in several languages: Church Slavonic (Western version), the colloquial Ukrainian language (various dialects), and Polish. But all the dramatic works which will be our subject were written chiefly for the Ukrainian Orthodox audience and thus without doubt belong to Ukrainian culture.
