Reference excerpt

The statue of Taras Shevchenko (Polish: Pomnik Tarasa Szewczenki; Ukrainian: Пам'ятник Тарасові Шевченку, romanized: Pam'yatnyk Tarasovi Shevchenku) is a monument in Warsaw, Poland, located within the Old Mokotów neighbourhood. It is placed at the Shevchenko Square, at the corner of Goworka, Chocimska, and Spacerowa Streets. The monument has a form of a bronze statue, dedicated to Taras Shevchenko, a 19th-century poet, writer, and political activist. It was designed by Anatolij Kuszcz and Baltazar Brukalski, and unveiled on 13 March 2002.

History The statue was designed by Anatolij Kuszcz, while its pedestal and surroundings, by Baltazar Brukalski. The monument was dedicated to Taras Shevchenko, a 19th-century poet, writer, and political activist, commemorating his visit to Warsaw in 1830. It was proposed by Dmytro Pavlychko, the ambassador of Ukraine in Poland, and financed by the Association of Ukrainians in Poland, Kyiv City Council, Lviv Oblast administration, and the embassy of Ukraine in Poland. The installation of the statue and construction of its pedestal and surroundings were financed by companies Edbud and Edbud Lviv. The monument was unveiled on 13 March 2002, by Włodzimierz Cimoszewicz, the Prime Minister of Poland, and Anatoliy Zlenko, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. Prior to this, on 10 October 2000, a commemorative plaque dedicated to Shevchenko, was unveiled on one of the houses near the square, which was then named in his honour. The monument was realised with an agreement between the governments of Poland and Ukraine, as part of which, a statue of Juliusz Słowacki, a 19th-century poet and writer, and a major figure in the Polish Romantic period, was unveiled in Kyiv in 2012. In 2004, an orange scarf was wrapped around the statue, as an act of support for the Orange Revolution in Ukraine, and in 2014, it was decorated with flags of Poland and Ukraine, during the Euromaidan demonstrations.

Overview The monument is placed at the Shevchenko Square, at the corner of Goworka, Chocimska, and Spacerowa Streets. The bronze statue of Taras Shevchenko forms its main element. He is depicted as a young adult, wearing a longcoat, and holding a candelabra and manuscript with his right hand, close to his chest. The statue is placed on top of a curved piramid-like pedestal, with a hexagonal shape. On the front, it features a bronze sculpture with a form of two sheets of paper, with the final verse of Shevchenko's poem To the Poles (Ukrainian: Полякам), inscribed on them in Polish and Ukrainian. It reads:

The monument has a total height of 5.1 m.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw)

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw) claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw) before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw) ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw)

In research: Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw) appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw) in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw) is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2002 establishments in Poland, 2002 sculptures, Bronze sculptures in Poland, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Statue of Taras Shevchenko (Warsaw) outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
