[td]During his seminary years Petliura frequently performed as a singer and conducted a students' choir. An active participant of social life, he ttok part in strike actions demanding the intriduction of Ukraine-oriented subjects in schools. One of the causes of his expulsion from the institution was the choir's performance of a [[cantata]] by [[Mykola Lysenko]], which had been banned by Russian censorship. After being expelled, Petliura earned his bread through private lessons. Despite the hardships, he was enthusiastic about the promotion of Ukrainian culture among ethnic Russians, and even made a Russian translation of one of the works by [[Ivan Franko]].<ref name=aut>{{Cite web|title=Автограф Π‘ΠΈΠΌΠΎΠ½Π° ΠŸΠ΅Ρ‚Π»ΡŽΡ€ΠΈ Π· Π²Ρ–Ρ‚Π°Π»ΡŒΠ½ΠΎΠ³ΠΎ листа Π΄ΠΎ Миколи ЛисСнка 1903 Ρ€ΠΎΠΊΡƒ|date=2023-05-31|url=https://localhistory.org.ua/rubrics...oli-lisenka-1903-roku/|access-date=2025-09-02}}</ref>[/td] [td][/td] [td]As the editor of numerous journals and newspapers, Petliura published over 15,000 critical articles, reviews, stories and poems under an estimated 120 noms-de-plume.
