Life
Hlibov was born in Veselyi Podil, Khorolsky Uyezd, Poltava Governorate, Russian Empire. He graduated from the Nizhyn Lyceum in 1855. In 1858, he began to teach at the gymnasia in Chornyi Ostriv and Chernihiv. He was active in the Chernihiv Hromada, published educational books, and contributed to the Saint Petersburg Ukrainian journal Osnova. In 1861, he founded and became editor of the weekly newspaper Chernigovskii listok, in which he published some of his works. In 1863, the Russian authorities closed down the paper and banned his works. Hlibov was then fired from his teaching job and was forced to live under police surveillance. From 1867 to his death, he was the director of the Chernihiv zemstvo printing house. He died in Chernihiv.
