Introduction

Last year we had a great experience, which made us more confident. Our group decided to translate poetries of Taras Shevchenko. Writing a translation was my first experience. I spent much time on this work, but it was really useful for me! I chose a poetry "І мертвим, і живим, і ненародженним"", which means "For dead, and for alive..." Taras Shevchenko wrote it in 1845, when he was dissatisfied with Mykola I.

Moreover, I decided to choose a part of the poetry, which says about a hard time in Ukraine. It seems to me, that T. Shevchenko urged people for reuniting with each other.

Also, I think, that this slogan has an important influence today.

We presented our translation for students from 9th grades. An atmosphere was fantastic, as we were dressed in embroidered shirts.

To sum up, that time was really fascinating and I want to make something similar further!
