Zakhar Berkut is one of the most famous works by Ivan Franko. In this historical tale, the writer combined his political views and the poetic romance of ancient heroic times based on historical facts, chronicles and folk legends and legends. The main idea of the story is to preserve the spiritual, political and economic freedom of the community in general and of each individual in particular. "I write a historical story, from the 13th century (attack of the Mongols)," the writer said in a letter, "in which I try to show the life of the self-governing, bookless and federal of our communities on the basis of historical acts of the public, the struggle of the element of the federal and the destructive princes. - boyar and finally with the destructive power of the Mongols. The views expressed by Zakhar Berkut here may be regarded as characteristic of the views of the simple people of the time to the princes and their bloody strife. The Totah's story, although it contains a lot of historical and unhistorical scenery, still, I hope, will arouse a lively interest in modern people. "
