The issues which are connected with the development of the historical conceptions in the modern Ukrainian historiography concerning the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (henceforth. – the GDL) history are examined in this article. The main works among the modern Ukrainian Lithuanian studies, for our opinion, are books of F. Shabul’do, N. Koval’skiy, N. Yakovenko, N. Krikun, G. Boryak, P. Sas, E. Rusina, A. Gurbik, B. Cherkas, A. Blanutsa and D. Vashchuk. Consequently the authors’ conceptions concerning the genesis of the GDL and its internal development were proposed to the scientific community. The formation of the scientific school for studying sources of 14th–16th centuries which was found by N. Koval’skiy (P. Kulakovskiy, V. Atamanenko, Yu. Svyatets, O. Dyachok etc.) has been started. The new, 21st century, gives new generation of historians, which started to research the specific aspects of the GDL development (the external policy – B. Cherkas; economic – A. Blanutsa, L. Zherebtsova, W. Berkowskiy; legal – D. Vaschuk, V. Polischuk). The scientific development of the Lithuanian studies in Ukraine reflects in periodicals, essentially on pages of the Ukrainian historical journal.
