Lesia Ukrayinka is a pseudonym of Larysa Petrivna Kosach. She was born on February 25th, 1871 in Novohrad-Volynsky and died on August 1st, 1913 in Surami, Georgia. She was poet, dramatist, writer, critic, who was the foremost woman writer in Ukrainian literature and a leading figure in its modernist movement.

The daughter of intellectuals, Ukrayinka was stricken with tuberculosis in 1881 and travelled widely thereafter in search of a cure. The collections "Na krylakh pisen" (1893; "On the Wings of Songs"), "Dumy i rnriyi" (1899; "Thoughts and Dreams"), and "Vidhuky" (1902; "Echoes") established her as the leading young Ukrainian poet of the day.

She married the musical expert and specialist in folklore Klyment Kvitka in 1907.

Ukrayinka concentrated on poetic dramas from about 1906 on. Folk songs and fairy tales provide the framework for "Lisova pisnya" (1912; "Forest Song"), in which Ukrayinka reflects the problems between good and evil. Her historical drama "Boyarynya" (1914; "The Noblewoman") is a psychological tragedy centring on a Ukrainian family in the 17th century.

Ukrayinka also wrote short stories and critical essays and did masterful translations of works by Homer, William Shakespeare, Lord Byron, Victor Hugo, and Ivan Turgenev.
