Abstract
This paper is devoted to issues of research of a human body in the 16th century literature and art paradigm. The researched texts context structure analysis has shown that a human body may be represented as a subject, an object and a symbol. The character of a human body representation in the text of mannerist allows interpreting the somatisms as axiological indices that are functioning in the semiotic continuum of culture. The multi-aspect analysis of somatisms presented in this work enables determination of limits in representing a human body and the image of a human body in the author’s texts, the degree of intended / non-intended deformation of such, since it is the breach of perfection of a human body’s proportions and thirst to sophisticated compositions that are one of formal characteristics of mannerism in art. The study of the ‘human body’ phenomenon in this work presumes a study of how the author speaks of the body and its parts, how he uses the concept ‘body image’ for relaying own intentions. Constructing a formal model of the author’s picture of the world for the mentioned analysis includes the analysis of the lexis depicting the body language. Peculiarities of mannerist culture, formed in the Eastern Europe within the transition period of 16-17th centuries, are studied within this research of the treatises in literature written in the Eastern Europe. Given all the complexities of life and fate of these writers, among other authors of that period they are distinguished with a peculiar attitude towards the cultural achievements of the Renaissance, the trend not only to rely on the existing tradition, but to renew that tradition with the help of transformations. Such a contradictive “pending situation” between the old and the new is one of characteristic features of mannerism.
