Victor M. Zabila (c. 1808 – 20 Nov (2 Dec) 1869) – Ukrainian romantic poet. His biography known very little. The objective of my article is to assess the value of biographical information sources introduced into scientific circulation, the selection of the basis of relatively reliable points (facts) and reasoned refutation of myths (legends).
