Lypa K. Velychne tlo dlya podvyhiv. "Unknown Ukraine" series. (Majestic Background for Feats)
"In our time oversaturated with various information, it is difficult to correlate data, names and works of the same epoch that belong to different realms of the cultural history. However, both before and now architecture and literature were and are products of the same era that in different ways reflected its spirit and historical essence. So, it is but natural to remind the reader of this historic integrity. And this is exactly what this book is dedicated to. The stories about architectural monuments (mostly, defense ones) were inspired by literary or folk pieces relating to the events that took place under walls of the fortresses. In folk songs, dumas and poems, they mention if not actual fortifications, but at least the outstanding people who defended or attacked them. Each chapter of the book is dedicated to one literary work and, therefore, monuments of the fortification art mentioned in it, including both widely-known fortresses, e.g. Kamyanets-Podilsky, Khotyn, Ostrog, Pochayiv, Bilgorod-Dnistrovsky, and those hardly known to the wide audience of readers – the constructions in Sataniv, Zhvanets, Kremenets, Terebovlia and other towns."
