Genre-style modifications of modern ukrainian documentary literature on Euromaidan and anti-terrorist operation (ATO)
Abstract
The article is devoted to the problem of genre-style modifications of modern Ukrainian documentary literature on Euromaidan (2013−2014) and armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine (2014−2020). An example of the book “Chronicle of Eyewitnesses: Nine Months of Ukrainian Resistance” (2014, the author of the project — O. Zabuzhko, compiler — T. Teren) explores the content and form of the collective chronicle (eyewitnesses chronicle) genre. It is noted that the posts of 150 authors, placed on various Internet resources and selected for the book, are structured according to the logic of the development of the classic plot. The texts present a diverse range of images of Euromaidan participants. The description of the events is expressed by original artistic means and vivid emotions. Collection of essays «Point Zero» by Artem Cech represents the narrative of a writer who participated in the ATO in 2015−2016. It is a “self-portrait of the artist”, in which the author makes an objective analysis of his subjective war experience. Both books are a kind of objective artistic and emotional document of the era.
