Abstract
The purpose of the research is to analyze Markiyan Terletskyi’s participation in the cultural and educational environment of Galicia (Halychyna) (1920 – 1930) and to highlight the main aspects of his activities in camps for the interned Ukrainian servicemen in Czechoslovakia, as well as in the Ukrainian educational institutions in Podyebrad and Prague. The methodology of the research is based on the principles of historicism, systematicity, scientificity; as well as the use of general scientific and special historical methods. Owing to the application of the biographical method, the author highlighted M. Terletskyi’s activities and defined the place and role in the educational institutions of Przemysl, Podyebrad, Prague, Yavoriv and Stanislaviv (nowadays Ivano-Frankivsk), as well as in the Czechoslovak camps for the interned Ukrainian soldiers. The scientific novelty is that for the first time in the Ukrainian historiography, based on the analysis of a set of sources, M. Terletskyi’s biography and his cultural and educational activities were reconstructed. The Conclusions. Having analyzed M. Terletskyi’s multifaceted activities, we make bold to say that he was primarily closely associated with the socio-cultural environment in Przemysl, which manifested itself in his pedagogical work in the Ukrainian schools primarily. M. Terletskyi’s several years of multifaceted work in the camps for the interned Ukrainian soldiers in Czechoslovakia was aimed at raising their cultural and educational level primarily. The research and teaching work in the Ukrainian educational emigration institutions of the Czechoslovak Republic testified to his active civic position. After his return to Galicia (Halychyna), M. Terletskyi joined the native schools’ activities. Based on the analysis of his pedagogical activity, scientific and pedagogical research, speeches at pedagogical meetings, meetings in educational societies, M. Terletskyi’s role in the Ukrainian national school and education development was clarified.
