A Ukrainian Robin Hood, chief of Carpathian opryshoks. He became an outlaw with his brother Ivan and led a band of 30-50 men. Local peasants admired him for he took from the landlords, usurers, merchants, nobles and redistributed it to the poor. Dovbush's band was mostly active in the Hutsul region and in Pokutia, but sometimes raided Podilia. For several years Polish military expeditions sought to capture Dovbush, who was finally betrayed by one of his own men. His legend captured the popular imagination and left a lasting mark in Ukrainian folklore, literature, art, music, ballet, and film) |
