Eneida Template

Eneida is a Ukrainian burlesque-travesty poem written by the Ukrainian writer Ivan Kotlyarevsky, based on the plot of the classic poem of the same name by the Roman poet Virgil. The poem was written at the time of the formation of romanticism and nationalism in Europe, against the background of the nostalgia of a part of the Ukrainian elite for the Cossack state, liquidated by Russia in 1775-1786. The illustrations for the poem were made by the artist Anatolii Bazilevich.
