Ivan Wahylevytsch

Ivan Mykolaiowytsch Wahylevytsch , ( Ukrainian Іван Миколайович Вагилевич ; born September 2, 1811 in Jassen , Ukraine ; † May 10, 1866 in Lemberg ) was a Ukrainian poet, writer, historian of Ukrainian literature, philologist and Greek-Catholic cleric.

Wahylevytsch formed together with Markijan Schaschkewytsch and Yakiw Holowazkyj the Galician literary group "Ruska trijzja" which began with a national and cultural revival in what is now western Ukraine in the late 1820s . The group produced the Galician-Ukrainian almanac in Ukrainian vernacular, " Russalka Dnistrowaja " (German: Ruthenian folk songs ) , in which the Galician "peasant language" was introduced into the Ukrainian literary language.
