ON THE OCCASION OF EDITING THE COLLECTION OF RUTHENIAN FOLK POEMS (STUDIA RUTHENICA, 25TH ISSUE, 2020)

Summary/Abstract: In this article, our intention was to point out what problems we encountered in editing the Collection of Ruthenian Folk Poems (Studia Ruthenica, 25th issue, 2020). It is primarily the problem of the integrity of the content and style of the poems; in some poems, there are superfluous lines that distract the reader from the main theme; there are a lot of unclear lines and lines that do not agree with the content of the poem; there are poems in which two different themes are told; poems in which the stylistic coloring of some verses loses the meaning of the poem; poems whose meaning becomes clear only when two or more variants of the same poem are compared; poems that express several unrelated thoughts. The goal of editing each poem was to achieve completeness and clarity of its content. We do not consider this edited Collection to be final because there are more poems in which we find the same or similar problems as we have described here.
