Summary/Abstract: This article deals with Professor Ryszard Łużny's interests and research in Ukrainian studies. This Polish Slavist contributed hugely to the development of the Ukrainian studies on Baroque, particularly on the Polish-language Baroque poetry composed in Ukraine; also on the links between the Ukrainian Baroque with Western culture, including the Polish one. Professor Łużny's research was not recognized in the Soviet Ukraine, since the researcher kept a keen interest in the religious aspects of the Baroque literature. At present, Łużny's research is winning wide recognition among Ukrainian researchers.
