Abstract: Метою цієї статті є дослідження участі в українському козацькому русі Володимира Мошинського (1895 – 1988), деякий час представника одеського плацдарму Української революції 1917 – 1921 років, але основний етап життя якого відбувся вже у Північній Америці у другій половині ХХ ст. У постаті В. Мошинського маємо одного з найбільш своєрідних популяризаторів історії українського козацтва, козака-практика та козака- митця, козака-мемуариста, багатий життєвий досвід якого єднав незримими узами Україну та діаспору, сприяв збереженню історичної пам’яті про не найпомітніші та не найпопулярніші сторінки козацької історії.
The purpose of this article is to study the participation of Volodymyr Moshynsky (1895-1988) in the Ukrainian Cossack movement, who for some time was a representative of the Odessa center of the Ukrainian revolution of 1917-1921, but the main stage of his life took place in North America in the second half of the twentieth century. The article is based on the use of a wide source base of published narrative sources, the most important of which are the memoirs and works of V. Moshinsky. Biographical, prosopographic, historical-genetic methods, as well as a number of generally accepted scientific methods were used to implement the tasks. The historiographical work on the figure of V. Moshinsky is narrow and clearly inadequate to the scale of his activity. It is mentioned in a limited number of publications and sometimes in a false context. V. Moshynsky's articles show that he was fully aware of his Cossack ancestral roots and was proud of them. There was a harmonious connection between the facts of his biography and his interests, as he had to work in the interwar period in the area where his wife's ancestors came from the Danube Cossacks. In October 1917, during a confrontation with the Bolsheviks in Moscow, V. Moshinsky became friends with the Amur Cossacks, who almost persuaded him to go with them to the Far East. V. Moshinsky received scientific information about the history of the Ukrainian Cossacks at lectures of the leading Odessa Cossack scholar M. Slabchenko. The Cossack trace in V. Moshinsky's biography was most clearly reflected in his activity in the Cossack Ukrainian movement in the USA. In the 1970s, he was one of the leaders, clerk, tent of the Ukrainian Free Cossacks in Denver named after the commander, the first knight of the Iron Cross, Colonel-General Mikhail Omelyanovich-Pavlenko. V. Moshynsky received the rank of Cossack lieutenant colonel and later colonel. The main body of the free Cossack movement in the United States was the magazine "Ukrainian Cossacks", published from the late 1960s to the 1980s. V. Moshinsky was mentioned in the pages of this magazine as a donor to its publication, was the author of a number of articles. The magazine covered the artistic activity of V. Moshynsky and his children, with the inclusion of this activity in the Cossack context. In 1974, the magazine published an important and so far unique evidence that the Cossack theme was present in the artist's work - a reproduction of his painting in the mid-1950s "Hetman Mazepa before the Battle of Poltava", kept in Montreal, donated to the Women's Society "Daughters of Ukraine". Thus, in the figure of V. Moshinsky we have one of the most original popularizers of the history of the Ukrainian Cossacks, a Cossackpractitioner and a Cossack-artist, a Cossack-memoirist, whose rich life experience united Ukraine and the diaspora with invisible ties, contributed to the preservation of historical memory not the most popular pages of Cossack history. But these pages are the most important for the modern Odessa region, where the problem of saturation of Bessarabia (as well as Odessa and Odessa region in general) with the Ukrainian worldview and culture is acutely relevant. The author considered the Cossacks within the framework of the national tradition, which combined the features of populist and state historiography, which was a typical feature of the North American Ukrainian historiographical tradition.
