Abstract

Literary history is not a simple history of literature but a science describing literature and art in history. It has to deal with the situation of those days and events which had great effect on the literature of the time. The various Soviet histories of Ukrainian literature mirror the historical literary process with peculiar distortion. On the other hand Ukrainian Slavist, Chyzhevsky 's 'istorija ukrajins'koji literatury' (history of ukrainian literature) published by the Ukrainian Academy of Arts and Sciences serve as a reference guide for further study of literature and offer a critical interpretation of the development the Ukrainian literature from the XI c to the XX c. Above this, Chyzhevsky showed great erution through multigaced scholarly activity. Specially his endeavors in Ukrainian studies were prodigious. Although history is to descibe the facts of the period, but time division is also of great importance in depiction of literary history. In his book the History have divided time by this basis of distinct periods: Monumental Style, Ornamental Style, the XIII-XIV c, Renaissance and Reformation, Baroque, Classicism, Romanticism, Realism. Modernism. And interspersed with these are ancillary chapters: Pre-historic, Translated and Borrowed literature, Writing in Latin, National Revival, Ukrainian Sentimentalism, Biedermeier, Naturalism. The conceptual cornerstone of author's history is the designation of style as criterion of the basis and criterion of the literary process. The typologies of style that have resulted from this belief range from the objective, statistical to psychological. Style can still function as a rewarding analytical tool provided it is applied in a conscious and precious. It is introduced abruptly as the basis of periodization. Above all his scheme for periodicizing Ukrainian literary history embodies his central theoretical ideas on style as the substance of literary history. It descibed scientifically with artistic value, grasping minutely the relationship between the situation of those days and literature and the substantial data and obvios time division through it.
