Item Anti-Colonial Discourse in Lesia Ukrainka’s Dramas(2021) Ageyeva, ViraNational ideas in Lesia Ukrainka's dramas.Item ARS Poetica Максима Рильського(2011) Агеєва, ВіраСтаття розміщена у збірнику "Людина в часі (філософські аспекти української літератури ХХ - ХХІ ст.)" , - Пульсари 2011.Item The Artist's Longing and Belonging Cultural Sensitivity in Yurii Kosach's Narratives(2016) Poliukhovych, OlgaAs an émigré writer living outside of Ukraine, Yurii Kosach constructed an “imaginary homeland” through his treatment of history, culture, and memory in his literary works. This article analyzes these categories in Kosach’s meta-narratives of the artist in exile, by focusing on the texts “Zaproshennia na Tsyteru” (An Invitation to Cythera, 1945), Skorbna symfoniia (The Sorrowful Symphony, undated), and Senior Nikolo (Signore Nikolo, 1954). Kosach’s characters are placed between exile and homeland, nation and empire, and self and other. All these notions are included in a discourse that is inclusive rather than oppositional. Following a strategy used by Lesia Ukrainka, Yurii Kosach also tests the artist’s ability to create in lands beyond one’s homeland and in conditions of cultural oppression. Each story plot of the analyzed narratives is constructed in terms of the cultural and national aspects of the artist’s identity.Item Between Silence and Speaking: the Representation of National Identity in Oksana Zabuzhko’s Poetry(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2017) Borysiuk, Iryna; Stanisz, Marek; Uliasz, StanisławThe article is focused on the problems of national identity, self-representation, and memory re-articulation in Oksana Zabuzhko’s poetry. Language, speaking, and word as well as silence are conceptualized as key concepts in verse by the 1980s generation of Ukrainian poets to whom Oksana Zabuzhko belongs. Speaking and silence in 1980s poetry can be treated not only as concepts or metaphors but also as a literary strategy or even as the form of resistance in the late Soviet era. The article is structured as the gradation of motives from speaking to silence in Zabuzhko’s poetry. The analyses includes such subthemes as non-verbal language represented by sounds, gestures, and poses, verbal language as existing between sacrum and profanum, speechlessness, and silence.Item Buntarky: Novi zhinky i moderna natsiia [Women-Rebels: The New Women and the Modern Nation], ed. Vira Aheieva(2021) Kalytenko, TetianaReview on "Buntarky: Novi zhinky i moderna natsiia" by Tetiana Kalytenko.Item Burleska i satira u djelima Boğdana Žoldaka(2021) Semkiv, RostyslavCilj nam je uovome istraživanju analizirati spektar Žoldakove komike, kao i uklopiti autora u širi kontekst humoristične proze na prijelazu iz 20. u 21. stoljeće.Item Ecphrasis, Archiseme, Rhythm, and Graphical Manner as the Tools to Model a Lyrical Self in M. Atwood's Poetry(2017) Taranukha, YelyzavetaThe article is a part of an ongoing project to establish Ukrainian-Canadian comparative literature studies. Grounded on the modern Canadian poetry, the paper defines the relations between the elements of poetic style and the models of lyrical self. The research hypothesizes a dependence between ecphrasis, rhythm, archisemes, and a lyrical self. The author depicts the main tendencies in M. Atwood’s poems, such as the use of ecphrasis, a creation of archisemes, the experiments on a genre, a graphical manner, and a rhythm, manifested itself as a musicality. It is stated that the theme of identity to a certain degree affects the types of lyrical self in M. Atwood’s creative work. Hereupon, the origin of lyrical self’s identity is considered as a self-reflective, and the genre diversity is outlined into two categories of poems: a "рoem-meditation" and a "рoem-sententia".Item An Excerpt from Bakhmut / by Myroslav Laiuk ; translated from the Ukrainian by Yulia Lyubka and Kate Tsurkan(2024) Laiuk, MyroslavThe following is a translated excerpt from Myroslav Laiuk’s book Bakhmut, which Ukraїner released at the end of 2023. During the most intense fighting in Bakhmut in winter 2022 and in March 2023, author Myroslav Laiuk and photographer Danylo Pavlov lived day and night with Ukrainian infantrymen and artillerymen, medics and chaplains, rescuers and children in the city and its surroundings, under artillery shelling and amid street battles. The result of those trips is a book of reports and essays about life during wartime, irreparable losses, the history of Bakhmut, and the phenomenon of memory and forgetting.Item Factum est factum. Біобібліоbrioukhія(Видавничий дім "Києво-Могилянська академія", 2010) Брюховецький, В'ячеславПокажчик знайомить читача з літературно-критичними, науковими, науково-популярними та публіцистичними працями доктора філологічних наук, кандидата педагогічних наук, першого ректора і президента НаУКМА В’ячеслава Степановича Брюховецького за період від 1957 по 2008 рр. Книга має характер пастишу, при її побудові використані елементи бриколажу. Для всіх, хто цікавиться розвитком української філологічної науки та новітньою історією становлення української освіти і не відкидає можливості гумористично дивитися на світ і на себе в ньому.Item Fear and Technology in the Theatre: Staging McLuhan(2020) Veretelnyk, RomanAlthough Marshall McLuhan had comparatively little to say about the theatre as a medium in his books, Robin C. Whittaker’s observation that "performance was integral to the delivery of McLuhan’s messages" serves as a reminder to address the question considering an added dimension. For example, at the "Theatre and the Visual Arts" panel at the Fourth Annual Seminar in Irish Studies held in 1971 at the University of Toronto, McLuhan was very much the performer in expressing various thoughts about the "electric theatre," to the delight of both his co-panelists and audience present. Conversing with W. H. Auden and renowned Beckett actor Jack MacGowran, McLuhan asks "what the Greeks might have done with PA systems if they’d had them... would they have shunned the gramophone and radio?" Auden and MacGowran are categorical in their responses, MacGowran’s retort that "they (the Greeks) would have been deadly against" being blunt and to the point. McLuhan answers by musing “whether this (incursion of electronic media) will change acting and the problems of the visual organization of theatre is another question.”Item Found in Translation Vasyl Stus and Rudyard Kipling’s "If"(2016) Veretelnyk, RomanDespite a not very complete body of foreign literary texts translated into Ukrainian, and a corresponding lacuna of Ukrainian literary texts translated into foreign languages, some unique Ukrainian translation successes do exist. One example concerns Rudyard Kipling’s poem “If,” which has enjoyed an exceptionally varied translation history into Ukrainian. This paper provides a background to the emergence of these translations and investigates how the text has been incorporated into a Ukrainian linguistic and cultural setting through Vasyl Stus’ translation of it. Attention is also paid to long-standing ideological and aesthetic controversies surrounding both Kipling and his poem, as commented on by T. S. Eliot, George Orwell, and Edward Said. Another focus of the paper is on new views on the poem and its translation afforded by approaches of reader-reception theory expressed by Paul de Man and Stanley E. Fish.Item From Old World Syndrome to History: Understanding the Past in Askold Melnyczuk’s Ambassador of the Dead(2019) Poliukhovych, Olga; Fielding, HeatherAskold Melnyczuk’s novel Ambassador of the Dead (2001) narrates the process through which a second-generation, assimilated American learns to comprehend the Ukrainian historical experience of his family and their generation. This article argues that the novel is centrally concerned with Nick’s learning process: as he begins to better understand his parents’ generation, he transforms his own identity. As a child, Nick is unable to see Ada — his friend’s mother, who is haunted by traumatic experiences — as anything other than an unchanging, incomprehensible enigma: "Old World Syndrome". Eventually, Nick comes to follow the example of Anton, a displaced Ukrainian who narrates a story-within-the-novel that returns Ada’s experiences to their historical and cultural contexts, while using magical realism to place her Ukrainian experience on a historical scale. Through Anton’s example, Nick learns how to see both Ada and his parents as complex historical actors in world history. Understanding the past then enables him to see himself as Ukrainian and claim an identity that is both Ukrainian and American.Item Die hingerichtete Renaissance und Stalins Kampf gegen die ukrainische Intelligenzija(2020) Yermolenko, VolodymyrDie ukrainische "hingerichtete Renaissance" der 1920er-Jahre, die mit ihrem klaren universalistischen Vektor die ukrainische Kultur als Teil der universellen europäischen Kultur betrachtete, ist daher ein wichtiger Anker, um die Entwicklung der Geschichte heute zu verstehen. Geschichte wiederholt sich nicht wirklich, bringt aber oft ähnliche Konstellationen hervor, in denen ähnliche Fragen und ähnliche Antworten formuliert werden. Werden die „Träume von Europa“ in osteuropäischen Ländern ihr Ziel erreichen? Oder werden sie stattdessen scheitern - und die Expansion Anti-Europas wird sich gegen das europäische Projekt durchsetzen? Werden sich die Tragödien der 1930er-Jahre heute wiederholen? Wir wissen die Antwort nicht. Aber die Frage ist von entscheidender Bedeutung. Für die Gesellschaften östlich der EU ist sie eine Frage von Leben und Tod.Item History as Trauma: Death, Violence, and Loss in the Poetry of Taras Mel'nychuk(2020) Borysiuk, IrynaThe paper examines the liaison of key motifs and ways represented in the poetry of Taras Melnychuk through the concepts of trauma and violence. Body, home, and language are the main constituent elements of the indigenous space, and their dramatic destruction is a crucial motif in Melnychuk’s poetry. On the one hand, the poet appeals to the holistic, consistent, formulaic language of folklore and mythology as to a mirror of an idyllic and non-fragmented world. On the other hand, dismemberment and fragmentation conceptualized as an act of violence committed against holistic language become the only way of describing the perverse and violent world in circumstances with no language for its expression at all.Item The Impact of Political Lobbying on the Aggravation of Language Conflicts in the Era of Globalization(2022) Ozhohan, Andrii; Stratulat, Nataliia; Lysianskyi, Pavlo; Yurkovska, Maiia; Zaluzhna, OlhaThe language problem has always been serious in Ukraine and often turned into an armed confrontation. This problem is becoming particularly acute in view of the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation, one of the stated reasons for the "linguistic inequality". The aim of the article is to determine the impact of unregulated political lobbying by individuals or groups on the aggravation of language conflicts in Ukraine and compare it with other countries. The research involved the following methods: analysis and synthesis, statistical analysis, graphical methods, establishment of cause-effect relations and cluster analysis. The novelty of the research is the study of the impact of political lobbying on the development of language conflicts in the region by means of cluster analysis. The study established the relationship between legislative regulation o f lobbying, language conflicts and corruption rates in the country. In the conclusions, the analysis shows that the availability of the institution of lobbying corresponds to lower rates of corruption and the virtual absence of language conflicts. The obtained results can be used by the government to improve Ukrainian legislation.Item In Memory of Volodymyr Morenets(2021) Peleshenko, NataliyaIn Memory of literary critic Volodymyr Morenets.Item The Insurgent Struggle Against the Soviet Occupiers in Vasyl Herasymiuk's Poetry(2017) Laiuk, MyroslavVasyl Herasymiuk, one of the most prominent contemporary Ukrainian poets, presents the struggle of the insurgents against the Soviet occupiers in the Carpathians in his literary works as an opposition of “own” and “other.” The invasion of the occupier destroys the authentic Carpathian cultural continuum and the insurgent underground resistance becomes a symbol of the human struggle for dignity and the preservation of own identity. The article analyzes the specific model of history presented in Vasyl Herasymiuk’s poetry. The connection between the insurgency and the poet’s biography and the history of his family is demonstrated. The article also traces and analyzes the contamination of the images of UPA insurgents and opryshky, the transformation in the hierarchical verticality of space, and the development of the struggle, presented via the opposition of “own” — “other,” from a myth-ritual point of view.Item Language as a political manipulation tool(2023) Ozhohan, Andrii; Derevianko, Serhii; Karchevska, Olena; Pavlova, Liudmyla; Pashyna, NataliyaUnfortunately, human intelligence is increasingly becoming militant and destructive. A clear evidence is the full-scale invasion of Russia into Ukraine, centuries of enslavement of the Ukrainian people, destruction of Ukrainian culture and language. In fact, the current tragic events of the latest hybrid war exposed ethnocide and linguicide against Ukrainians. The aim of the article is to analyse the use of language as a manipulation tool for the realization of fundamental political interests. Research methods: historical method, content analysis, statistical analysis. The results of the study show that the hegemonic policy of the current Russian government is characterized by the aggressive hybrid war against Ukraine, which actively involves various manipulation tools, in particular language, in order to justify the occupation, violent means of domination and methods of control over its former colonies, in order to appropriate all the resources of the enslaved countries and peoples, in order to maintain the status of a global leader and dominate the world. Further research may focus on analysing the manifestations of the use of language as a manipulation tool by pro-Russian parties in Ukraine and other countries.Item "The Nature of the Novella" by Hryhoriy Mayfet: formation of the theory of literature(2023) Pashko, OksanaThe article reconstructs Hryhoriy Mayfet’s theory of the novella, which he presented in his two-volume work The Nature of the Novella (1928–1929). The Ukrainian scholar’s theoretical suggestions fit into the general context of German and American literary critics’ search for the key features of the novella genre. The article also reveals the history of the controversy over Mayfet’s book in the Ukrainian literary process of the late 1920s and early 1930s, which took place between Volodymyr Derzhavyn, Felix Yakubovsky, and the critics of New Generation. This discussion, which lasted almost four years, demonstrates how ideological control was increasing in Ukrainian literary criticism in the early 1930s.
