Кобзар — збірка поетичних творів геніального українського митця Тараса Григоровича Шевченка, що увібрала в собі найбільш видатні його вірші та поеми. Твори, що увійшли до складу «Кобзаря», писалися на тернистих шляхах життя Шевченка, в неволі, у мандрах та вигнанні. Книга складалася поступово, її формувала сама доля великого українського кріпака. Надзвичайно милозвучною мовою автор розповідає про велич та красу українського народу, малює картину його історії та побуту, його трагедій та негараздів, натхнень та прагнень.
