Translated by Marianna Kiyanovska. Boleslaw Lesmian (1877 - 1937) - one of the most prominent Polish and European poets of the late XIX - early XX centuries. Only the connection of Lesmyan's biography and work with Ukraine, and in particular with Kyiv, where he studied at the gymnasium and later at the university, the future poet's friendship with the Starytsky family and other famous Ukrainian families, Taras Shevchenko's interest in poetry should make his figure extraordinary. attractive to us. But at the same time he is a "poet of timelessness" and a "poet of the future", an innovator and creator of a unique poetic language, a deep intuition of cultural theory, whose work influenced the poetics, in particular, Bogdan-Igor Antonych. The book "Sadbozhiy flare" is the most complete and complete corpus of translations of Lesmyan's poems into Ukrainian.
