Anna Pavlyk (26 January 1855 - 13 October 1928) was a Ukrainian social and cultural activist and writer, an active participant in the women's movement in Galicia. Anna Pavlyk was born in Monastyrske village, now part of the city of Kosiv, then in the Austrian Empire. Due to the difficult financial conditions of the family, Anna could not systematically attend school. She was a mercenary. Pavlyk had a great desire to learn, but could only do it on her own, by reading books. Pavlyk distributed the books and magazines sent to her by her brother Mykhailo Pavlyk among the villagers of Kosiv because of which she was persecuted by the local authorities. In 1877, Pavlyk was arrested and convicted twice - in January and summer, together with Ivan Franko, Mykhailo Pavlyk, Ostap Terletsky, and others. Pavlyk was also arrested in 1879 and 1880. Each time the court issued a prison sentence. Pavlyk wrote articles, essays and poems.
