The purpose is to comprehensively analyze the socio-cultural, educational, and military-political activities of I. Boberskyi, to give an assessment of his place and role in the history of Ukraine.
The methodology is based on the principles of scientificity, historicism, systematicity, and verification. Biographical, problem-chronological, and retrospective methods, prosopographic approaches and methods developed by special (auxiliary) historical disciplines: genealogy, sphragistics, phaleristics, vexillology, etc., are used.
The scientific novelty consists in determining the role of I. Boberskyi in social and cultural processes in Halychyna and the diaspora, highlighting his military-political and state-building activities.
Conclusions. Five periods can be distinguished in the life of I. Boberskyi: 1) 1873—1901 — childhood and youth years, gymnasium studies (1884—1891), obtaining higher education at the universities of Lviv and Graz (1891—1899), the first two years of teaching work at the Lviv (1899—1900) and Drohobych (1900—1901) Gymnasium; the formation of worldview landmarks; a turning point in I. Boberskyi’s life — his move to Lviv; 2) 1901—1914 — teacher, social and cultural figure in Lviv and Halychyna; 3) 1914—1923 — military-political and statebuilding activities of I. Boberskyi in Ukrainian Combat Command (since 1917 — Central Command) of Legion of Ukrainian Sich Riflemen, Supreme Ukrainian Council, General Ukrainian Council, State Secretariat of Military Affairs West Ukrainian People’s Republic, WUPR Representations in the USA and Canada; 4) 1924—1932 — socio-cultural and political activity in Canada; 5) 1932—1947 — living in Tržič in Yugoslavia, where I. Boberskyi, as in the previous period, worked in the social and cultural direction, devoting a lot of time to organizing his archive and book collection and writing memoirs.
