Prominent Ukrainian writer, historian, ethnographer, and translator. He was born into an impoverished Cossack-gentry family. After completing only five years at the Novhorod-Siverskyi gymnasium he enrolled at Kiyv University in 1837 but was not allowed to finish his studies because he was not a noble. He obtained a teaching position in Lutsk in 1840. There he wrote his first historical novel in Russian Mykhailo Charnyshenko, or Little Russia Eighty Years Ago (2 vols, 1843).

In 1843–5 Kulish taught in Kiyv and studied Ukrainian history and ethnography. There he befriended Taras Shevchenko, Mykola Kostomarov, and Vasyl Bilozersky; their circle later became the nucleus of the secret Brotherhood of Saints Cyril and Methodius. Panteleimon Kulish was the first person known to translate the whole of the Bible into the modern Ukrainian language and was also the first to write historical novels in Ukrainian. His most famous contribution in this field was the novel Chorna Rada (The Black Council) which was set in Cossack times. Kulish was also active in historical writing, composing a brief history of Ukraine in verse (under the title Ukraina) and a much larger History of the Reunification of Rus in three volumes. The latter dealt with the era of Hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky in the seventeenth century. His two-volume collection of Ukrainian folklore, Notes on Southern Rus retains its scholarly significance to the present day.

Quotes by Panteleimon Kulish (?)

“Сягає широко земля Московська,
Да тісно, сумно там людському серцю.
В снігах утонеш, у борах заблудиш,
З ведмедями, з вовками жити будеш.”
― Panteleimon Kulish, Байда, князь Вишневецький

“Бачивши од людей собі шанобу, і сам себе більш починаю шанувати, а то все почуваєшся блазнем і не ймеш сам собі віри.”

“Пробував штовхатись між мужиками, та вічно натрапляв на поліцію, котора нічого не хоче бачити й знати, окрім злочинних намірів, бо добрі діла не приносять їй жодної користи.”
― Panteleimon Kulish
