![]() ![]() Furthermore, Poland has the most active publishing market outside of Ukraine with regard to books on Ukrainian topics, including the history of Ukraine. The publishing market in Poland is a completely different story: biographies (and memoirs) are among the most popular published genres. ![]() The elevated genre of intellectual biography, which spans the disciplines of history, philosophy, and political studies, is represented by very few works (first and foremost among them is Prorok u svoii vitchyzni: Franko ta ioho spil'nota by Iaroslav Hrytsak). ![]() Book-length biographies about Galicians are particularly scant: with few exceptions, these individuals' " Galician nature " -assigned a status of marginality in the historiographic paradigm that has been carried over from the twentieth century-has caused them to be excluded from the pantheon of important figures about whom biographies are written. Popular biographies and biographic scholarly monographs are in short supply, even those dealing with the most prominent and central figures of Ukrainian history. Biographies do not constitute a well-developed genre of writing in Ukraine. ![]()
