Pamphil D. Yurkevych And His Philosophic Legacy: Winnipeg, Society of Volyn, 1979, 76 p.

A diaspora publication, published in Winnipeg (Canada), is dedicated to the philosophical work of Pamfil Yurkevych. Its author, Orthodox priest Stepan Yarmus, emphasizes that until the publication of his work, Yurkevych remained a little-studied figure. In particular, Yarmus notes that he managed to find 10 books by Yurkevych in libraries in London, the Vatican, and Moscow. According to Yarmus, the research tradition of studying Yurkevych was initiated by Dmytro Chyzhevskyi, but his study was never published. One of the important sources for understanding Yurkevych's work is an article by Volodymyr Solovyov, a student of Yurkevych, who described his teacher as a representative of the typical Ukrainian way of thinking.
