Description

The author of the article explores the pedagogical activity of Matviy Nomys (1823–1901) – a Ukrainian folklorist-paremiographer, ethnographer, teacher, writer, public figure, local historian, and linguist. Based on the analysis of archival documents, scientific materials, works of the teacher Z. Shumeiko characterizes the period of his studies at the University of Kiev as a time of professional self-determination, explores the educational and scientific activity of the person in this period, his research interests, communication with pedagogical and public figures of that time, their influences on the formation of the worldview of the person.

Z. Shumeiko covers the initial stage of Matviy Nomys’ professional activity as a teacher of literature (rhetoric, poetry, history of literature and Slavic (Church Slavonic) language) in Nizhyn and Nemyriv gymnasiums, and also researches the work of Matviy Nomys as the first director of Lubny gymnasium in Poltava province from 1872 to 1877. The author of the article focuses on the activities of the director to create the material base of the educational institution, providing teaching staff, forming the material and technical base, solving various everyday problems, financial assistance to students who needed it. She proves the high efficiency of Matviy Nomis’ work in this position by the feedback of county figures – contemporaries of the director.

 She pays special attention to the work of Matviy Nomys «Notes to the anniversary on the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Lubny Gymnasium note», which is a response to the accusations of opponents of the liberality of the director, which resulted in low student performance. The «Notes» is also a document that formulates the pedagogical concept of Matviy Nomys, including views on the organization of the educational process, the responsibilities of teachers and students, forms, methods and techniques of teaching and education. Z. Shumeiko concludes that Matviy Nomys is one of the theorists and practitioners of Ukrainian schooling in the second half of the 19th century.
