History of creation
The draft of the poetic play was written in the summer of 1911 in Kutaisi. The final revision and editing of it lasted until October. In a letter to her sister Olha, dated 27 November 1911, Lesya Ukrainka mentioned her hard work on the drama "Forest Song":{{Cquote|I wrote it during a very short period of time, 10â12 days, and I could not help writing. My mood was invincible, but after it I was sick and devastated⦠Then I started rewriting it, and I did not think that would take far more time than the writing itself, â just yesterday I finished this hassle and now my neck and shoulders ache as if I were carrying sacks.}}In a letter to her mother, dated 2 January 1912, Lesya Ukrainka mentioned what had inspired her to write the play:{{Cquote|It seems to me, that I just remembered our forests and longed for them. And then I have always kept that Mavka in my mind, for a long time, ever since you told me something about Mavkas in Zhaborytsia when we were walking through a forest with small but very dense trees. Then in Kolodyazhne, on a moonlit night, I ran into the woods alone (you didn't know that) and there I waited for Mavka to appear. And over Nechimne, I imagined her, as we spent the night there â you remember â with my uncle Lev Skulinsky. Apparently, I already had to write it once, and now for some reason, the 'right time' has come â I myself do not understand why. I am fascinated by this image forever.}}Numerous alterations and additions to the original draft of the manuscript demonstrate Lesya Ukrainka's hard and persistent work on it. The autograph consists of several text layers and reflects the various stages of its creation â from the initial to the final one.The outline of the first Act is the most interesting. Sometimes it resembles a detailed plan, that includes the content of each individual scene and combines poetic text with prose, demonstrating the work of the writer's imagination.Plot
