Bohdan Teodor Nestor Lepky, (Ukrainian: Богдан Теодор Нестор Лепкий, 9 November 1872 – 21 July 1941[1]) was a Ukrainian writer, poet, scholar, public figure, and artist.[2]

He was born on November 9, 1872, in the village of Kryvenke, in the same house where the Polish insurgent Bogdan Jarocki once lived. He spent his childhood in Krohulets.[3][4][5]

Education

Bohdan was sent to a normal school in Berezhany at the age of six, where he started in the second grade.[6] In 1883 he started attending the gymnasium at the same town.[7][8] Lepky would later recall that most young Ukrainian and Polish students were noted for their ethnic tolerance, mutual respect, openness, and active participation in choirs, stage productions, and concerts with a repertoire of both Polish and Ukrainian productions.[citation needed]

After completing the gymnasium in 1891, Lepky was admitted to the Academy of Arts in Vienna[9] but left after a year to pursue a degree in literature. He then went to the Lviv University, studying Ukrainian history and literature, and was a part of the society Vatra and the choir Boyan there before he graduated in 1895.[10] He then returned to the gymnasium in Berezhany as a teacher of Ukrainian and German language and literature.

Years in Kraków

Lepky moved to Kraków in 1899 when Kraków's Jagiellonian University launched a series of lectures on the Ukrainian language and literature and offered a chair to Lepky,[11] who remained there for the rest of his life.

While in Kraków Lepky's house was at 28, Ulica Zielona, where he often hosted many other Ukrainian academics,[12] including Kyrylo Studynsky, Vasyl Stefanyk, Vyacheslav Lypynsky, Mykhailo Zhuk, Mykhailo Boychuk, among others. Lepky also talked with Polish artists such as Kazimierz Tetmajer (1865–1940; a poet and prose writer, and author of the historical novel Legend of the Tatra Mountains), the playwright and painter Stanisław Wyspiański, and the poet Władysław Orkan.

Lepky is best known for his Polish translation of the ancient Ukrainian chronicle Słowo o pułku Igora (The Tale of Ihor's Host, 1905) and for the poem "Zhuravli" (Cranes, 1910), which became known as the song "You see, my brother, my friend, the gray string of cranes flying off into the distance." Lepky later said that one of Wyspiański's plays prompted him to compose Zhuravli: "In the fall of 1910, in Kraków, I was walking home after viewing a theatrical production of Wyspianski's drama Noc Listopadowa. The withered leaves rustled beneath my feet, and departing cranes were trumpeting high above. The poem seemed to come by itself, without my knowledge or effort. My brother Lev Lepky set it to music."[13]

Bohdan Lepky died in Kraków and is buried in the local Rakowicki Cemetery.[1]
