Raised by his uncle, who was Mykola Lysenko's father, Starytsky received his education at various institutions, including Kharkiv and Kyiv Universities. Collaborating closely with Lysenko, he collected and transcribed folk songs, also writing librettos for many of Lysenko's operas. Facing tsarist hostility, Starytsky emigrated in 1878 but returned to Ukraine in 1880 to continue his publishing and theater endeavors. Notable among his literary works are translations of H.C. Andersen's tales and Serbian folk dumas, as well as his own poetry and social issue-focused dramas like "It Was Not Destined" and "In the Darkness." Starytsky's legacy includes historical dramas, novels like "The Siege of Busha" and collections published posthumously.
