Résumé anglais Victor Koptilov, The penetration of the major European myths in Ukraine. The main figures of the major European myths have made their way through Ukrainian literature over the last century. In the works of T. Shevchenko, I. Franko, P. Tychyna, Iu. Klen, M. Bajan, etc., such figures as Prometheus, Moses, the Virgin Mary, Faust, Don Juan, and Don Quixote have undergone various alterations, according to the writer's personality and under the influence of political and social circumstances. Even when noticeably altered (and this was the case with Moses in Franko 's poem, or with Don Juan in Lesia Ukraiinka's drama), they still preserve their "ideological nucleus." The constant presence of the major European myths in Ukrainian literature is witness to its belonging to the European cultural space.
