Mykola Ivanovych Kostomarov (Ukrainian: Микола Іванович Костомаров; May 16, 1817 – April 19, 1885) or Nikolai Ivanovich Kostomarov[1] (Russian: Николай Иванович Костомаров) was one of the most distinguished Russo–Ukrainian[2][3][4][5] historians, one of the first anti-Normanists, and the father of modern Ukrainian historiography,[6] a Professor of Russian History at the St. Vladimir University of Kiev and later at the St. Petersburg University, an Active State Councillor of Russia, an author of many books, including his famous biography of the seventeenth century Hetman of Zaporozhian Cossacks Bohdan Khmelnytsky, the research on the Ataman of Don Cossacks Stepan Razin and his fundamental 3-volume Russian History in Biographies of its main figures (Russian: Русская история в жизнеописаниях её главнейших деятелей).
Kostomarov was also known as one of the main figures of the Ukrainian national revival society best known as the Brotherhood of Saints Cyril and Methodius,[7][2][8][9][10][11] which existed in Kiev from January 1846 to March 1847. Kostomarov was also a poet, ethnographer, pan-slavist and promoter of the so-called Narodniks movement in the Russian Empire.
