Scientific content of the «Nedilia» weekly (1911–1912)

The Ukrainian intellectual elite from Galicia understood the importance of building national cultural values through their scientific interpretation. The vectors of this rethinking are projected onto separate branch groups of the illustrated magazine «Nedіlia» publications (weekly supplement to the newspaper «Dіlo») and relate to various scientific fields – history, literary studies, linguistics, visual arts, music, theatre, natural sciences, etc. The authors of the publications such as Mykhailo Wozniak, Volodymyr Doroshenko, Natalіa Kobrynska, Ivan Krypyakevych, Ivan Rakovsky, Hnat Khotkevych, Ivan Franko, Vasyl Shchurat, and others – considered the problems of national culture in the pan-European context, made comparative parallels regarding the social status, financial situation and public resonance of the activities of Ukrainian and foreign scientists and artists results.
Journal materials initiated such scientific disciplines as Shevchenko studies and Shashkevych studies contained rich historical and archaeological material on Ukrainian history in general, and Lviv, in particular, reflected a high assessment of the results of the Shevchenko Scientific Society. Historical research updates the topics of the prehistory of Ukraine, the era of Khmelnytskyi, identification of Ukrainian national symbols and at the same time. The newspaper’s publications make it possible to trace the connection between the development of Galician scientific processes and the press. In addition to purely professional publications, society needed popular science publications that would promote to a wider public space the researches, primarily in the humanitarianism field. The unity of the spiritual space of Ukrainians, separated by the border of two empires, is evidenced by the newspaper’s authors and the thematic dominants of scientific studies.

Keywords: the Galician press of the beginning of the 20th century, «Nedіlia» weekly, scientific content, comparative studies, the nation unity.
