REVOLUTION OF 1917: THE PROBLEM OF FIXATION, RECEPTION OF ARTISTIC REPRESENTATION OF POLYPHONIC MYTHS IN UKRAINIAN IMMIGRATION LITERATURE

Abstract

Literary-studying concepts of ontological nature of artistic representation of the myths polyphony, generated by the revolution of 1917 and aberration-deviations of its slogans from the norms of human coexistence, humanity have been studied in the article, based on the specific examples; the attention is focused on the multi vector modelling of socio-economic, political, religious, ontological myths in the artistic heritage of the Ukrainian Diaspora writers, such as M. Lavrenko, O. Hai- Holovko, Ye. Malaniuk, V. Vynnychenko. It is proved that polyphony of myths is perceived in the core of the reader’s expectations on the levels of motivation of "the theory of expectations”, preferences, aesthetic tastes, intellectual resource
of the recipient. The article analyzes and interprets the artistic concepts of social, political, economic, religious, and ontological myths in historic-literary and theoretical coverage of revolution of 1917 and its consequences. According to R. Ingarden, any literary work should be perceived as the international product, which differs from the real and ideal objects. The writer simulates the imaginary world, but
it is rather close to reality. Intention – desire, purpose – it is the project, plan of the writer, which is realized during the creative process, but finally it is realized in the literary text, designed for the reader. Therefore, modeling of myths in Ukrainian immigrant literature proportionally depends on the worldview, creativity,
individual style and culture of speech. Resorting to the artistic reproduction of polyphonic myths, emigration writers focus their attention on three social “diseases” that represent loss of meaning, dizziness-crossing of the goal and loss of freedom.
