Abstract
ABSTRACT In Western modern book publishing, there existed “folk” books also known as chapbooks that were intended for grass-root readers. In the Ukrainian tradition, they were called lubok books. Ukrainians had no opportunity to study their national history at school in the Russian Empire, therefore, alternative channels of social communication, in particular, books were gaining importance. The article deals with the repertoire of lubok books that depicted events of the history of Ukraine. The repertoire has been analyzed by time, place and language of printing, as well as by thematic directions.
