Legal Theorist, Methodologist and Lyricist (To the 70th Anniversary of Professor Mykhailo Stepanovych Kelman)
Abstract. The biographical essay about Professor, Doctor of Law Mykhailo Kelman outlines not only the milestones of the life of a Ukrainian personality, but also the boundary segment of the progress of jurisprudence over the three decades of independence of modern Ukraine. He humbly brings to the "human court" the criticism of the age-old burden of historical heritage, responsibility for the ideas of the present and “arguments” distorted by pseudo-science.
