On October 4, a presentation of the book took place in the premises of Lesya Ukrainka Volyn State University: Danylo Bratkovskyi. "The World, Considered in Parts." – Lutsk: Volyn Regional Printing House, 2004. The presented book is a phototypic reprint of the only collection of poems by the outstanding Ukrainian poet Danylo Bratkovskyi, "świat po części przeyzrany," from the Krakow edition of 1697. The book took a long time to reach the modern Ukrainian reader. It is symbolic that the publication was carried out precisely in the Year of Poland in Ukraine, since the figure of Bratkovskyi belongs to the shared past of both Ukraine and Poland. Present at the presentation were: Wojciech Gałązka, Consul General of the Republic of Poland in Lutsk, Volodymyr Kindratovych Baran, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Vice-Rector for Humanitarian and Educational Affairs of VDU, Anatolii Mykhailovych Syliuk, Director of the Volyn Museum of Local Lore, Volodymyr Vasylovych Pryshliak, Candidate of Historical Sciences, Associate Professor of the Department of Ancient and Modern History of Ukraine of VDU, Olena Andriivna Biriulina, Head of the Department of Ancient History of VKM, author-compiler of the book, Mykola Oleksiiovych Slatov, author of the original layout of the book, Nataliia Yukhymivna Pushkar, chief curator of VKM, Dmytro Adamovych Holovenko, director of the Volyn Regional Printing House. The Consul General of the Republic of Poland in Lutsk, Wojciech Gałązka, amazed those present by reading poems by Danylo Bratkovskyi from the original – in Old Polish. The poet's poems in Ukrainian were read by actress Larysa Mikoian. The book was published under the auspices of a number of scholarly institutions: the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine, where the originals are preserved, the Shevchenko Institute of Literature of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, the Volyn Museum of Local Lore, and the Volyn Regional Brotherhood of St. Apostle Andrew the First-Called (Lutsk Exaltation of the Cross), which were the initiators of the reprint. The organizer and great devotee of the project was the head of the Brotherhood of St. Apostle Andrew the First-Called, People's Deputy of Ukraine of the 1st convocation Andrii Bondarchuk, who collected funds for the publication of the book over the past two years among various institutions, organizations, state figures, and private individuals. Among them were institutions and leaders of city and regional authorities (in particular, the leadership of the Regional State Administration and the mayor of Lutsk), representatives of Christian confessions and their organizations, People's Deputies of Ukraine Viktor Yushchenko, Yuliia Tymoshenko, Oleksandr Moroz, Mykola Zhulynskyi, and others, representatives of business and public organizations, and ordinary citizens not indifferent to the achievements of Ukrainian culture. The prepared edition contains a thorough scholarly apparatus: a preface by the director of the Institute of Literature of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Academician Mykola Zhulynskyi (Kyiv), an introductory article by the well-known domestic writer, literary scholar, and translator Valerii Shevchuk (Kyiv) and his complete translation into Ukrainian of Danylo Bratkovskyi's work, a publication of rare sources from the poet's life by Olena Biriulina (Lutsk), a book-science study of surviving original copies by Iryna Rymarovych (Kyiv), an afterword by Volodymyr Pryshliak (Lutsk), and reprints of historical articles about D. Bratkovskyi by well-known Ukrainian historians M. Maksymovych, V. Antonovych, V. Lypynskyi, and V. Domanytskyi.
Reference: The Volyn nobleman, podchashyi of Vendens, Danylo Bratkovskyi, belongs to the notable Ukrainian public figures of the second half of the 17th century. A thorough education, first at the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy and then abroad, a successful court career under Polish kings, and conditions for peaceful management of the hereditary estate in the village of Svyshchiv (today in Mlyniv district of Rivne region) did not prevent D. Bratkovskyi in his consistent struggle for the return of full-fledged life to his co-religionists – Orthodox citizens of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In 1697, at his own expense, he published in Krakow, at the printing house of Frantisek Cezary the Younger, a collection of Polish-language epigram poems, "świat po części przeyzrany." It is known that the print run of the book was close to 5,000 copies. Having lost faith in the effectiveness of legal sejm and journalistic struggle, he turned for help to the camp of the rebellious Cossack colonel Semen Palii. For participation in Palii's uprising, Bratkovskyi was handed over to a military court and executed in Lutsk on November 26, 1702. According to his will, he was buried in the Lutsk Brotherhood Exaltation of the Cross Church.
