DECONSTRUCTION OF THE SACRAL CHRONOTOPE IN POSTMODERN POETRY (BASED ON S. ZHADAN’S POETRY)

Abstract

The research considers the main aspects of the formation of a chronotop in the postmodern text. The article analyzes the ways of ironic desacralization of time and space in S. Zhadan’s poetry. The sacred time by cyclicality, which is its main organizing feature, a guarantee of harmonious existence in the world. Images of cyclic time allow postmodern author to reproduce the usual for mythological
consciousness perception of time on another aesthetic-mental level, providing otherwise the filling of the traditional. The cyclicity of any time space, in particular, everyday, historical, cyclicity and, accordingly, sensuality and absurdity of any phenomenon, individual or collective residence, a sense of uniqueness, is
stated. In fact, the cosmic meaning of the sacred time space is individualized, coming from the macrocosm into the microcosm, becoming the property of each individual in its everyday existence, often remote from holiness or even the opposite of it.
The author emphasizes that the postmodern deconstruction of the chronotope does not necessarily imply his absolute unveiling and the removal of the opposition of the sacral and profane, since it is possible to superimpose chronotopes in the subject’s reflection. Need to clarify the thesis that postmodern space (wider time space) is a space in which the opposition «sacred-profane» disappears, because in the discourse of Ukrainian postmodern poetry the desacralization of time space has a more complex form and a non-one-dimensional realization.
