The famous television film “The Magnificent Century” attracted the attention of the whole world to the outstanding figure of the Slavic slave Roksolana, who became the wife of Suleiman the Magnificent, the most powerful sultan of the Ottoman Empire. However, the mysterious personality of the Queen of the East (as Roksolana was called by European ambassadors) attracted the attention of writers and historians long before the emergence of the most popular Turkish film these days. Historical books claim that this girl’s name was either Anastasia or Alexandra Lisovskaya and she lived in what is now Ukraine. It is not surprising that many Ukrainian writers addressed her fate. Back in 1930, Osip Nazaruk’s wonderful story “Roksolana” was published in Ukrainian, telling about the amazing fate of a Slav woman who was stolen in the 16th century and sold into slavery at the Istanbul slave market. A new version of Roksolana’s life is in Osip Nazaruk’s book written in exile, which was banned for many decades and only now returning to the reader, and for the first time in Russian!
