THE PUBLISHING SERIES "LIBRARY OF THE FRANKO HOUSE" AS A POPULAR SOURCE OF BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION ABOUT IVAN FRANKO
Abstract
The article analyzes the publishing series of the Ivan Franko National Literary and Memorial Museum in Lviv, the Franko House Library. This series has been published since 2017; 17 unique publications of various genres prepared by the Museum's researchers have been published. The series' repertoire includes scholarly and nonfiction publications and popular and children's books
The article focuses on three different publications about one of the most famous Ukrainian writers, poet, scientist, publicist, translator, traveler, and father of four children - Ivan Franko: a famous science biography "Dr. F. A Little Book about the Great Franko" by Bohdan Tykholoz, a catalog of the exhibition "Franko made in the U.S.S.R. " and a guidebook "Francomandry+". Each publication's content, structure, printing, advantages, and disadvantages intended for different target audiences are analyzed.
The article's topic is quite relevant because not many scholars have studied museum publications, particularly publishing series, and we can name only a few names: O. Mikhno, N. Cherhik, N. Liubovets, R. Mankovska, and others. As for Ivan Franko's biography, there are many articles, reviews, and publications about the writer, but the books of the "Library of the Franko House" series, as far as we know, have not yet been analyzed. Therefore, we can confidently insist on the relevance and importance of this topic.
General scientific methods of scientific research were used to achieve the research goal, namely analysis, synthesis, the method of analogy and concretization. The uniqueness, importance, and popularity of the publishing series "The Library of the Franko House", which meets the reading needs of the mass audience in learning about the life and work of one of the founders of Ukrainian identity, was proved.
