Abstract

The article investigates peculiarities of temporal motifs realization in K. Kalytko’s poetry collection “Torture Chamber. Vineyard. Home”. The concept of time in K. Kalytko’s works manifests itself in the portrayal of the past, present and future (where present stands for the space of anxiety; powerful emotional experience
“here-and-now”, even if the source of its experience is already in the past; precariousness of the future). The artistic semiotics of time in K. Kalytko’s works is closely associated with the mythopoetic images which have, in particular, Christian sources. The main motifs, which clustering around the temporal semantics,
are the motifs of kin, childhood, old age, traumatic memory, duration, love, death, eternity. The peculiar feature of K. Kalytko’s style is the presence of many tropes (mainly epithets, comparisons, metaphors) based on the poetic comprehension of temporal images.
