FEATURES OF THE ARTISTIC INTERPRETATION OF THE CHERNOBYL TRAGEDY IN THE LYRICS OF LINA KOSTENKO

Abstract

In the article features of artistic interpretation of Chernobyl tragedy in poetic and publicistic works of Lina Kostenko are considered. The Chernobyl theme in the works of Lina Kostenko constitutes the basis and center of the lyrical experience, forming a complete work. The Chernobyl tragedy entered the poetic consciousness of the poetess so deeply that even in the works on another theme memories of Chernobyl, allusion to it arise, a mosaic of thoughts and feelings of the poetess turned to modern reality is formed. Lina Kostenko continues the best traditions of Ukrainian literature which are associated with acute perception and ethical and philosophical artistic understanding of the most important socio-historical events, phenomena, processes for the country and people. At the same time, the poetess not only recreates her artistic perception of the world, but also transforms, reinterprets traditional genres, sometimes falling back to combinatorics of various genre and poetology systems. Not so much as desire for a unique repetition of themes, images, emotions, thoughts but also some kind of inner peculiar repeatability is inherent to Lina Kostenko’s creative consciousness. It is based on the integrity of the author’s lyrical subject with its special ethical and philosophical vision of reality, the view of life addressed to the contemporary reader. In the work of Lina Kostenko a distinctly pronounced tendency of the aesthetic solution of acute socio-historical, moral, philosophical problems actual for the modern life of the Ukrainian people emerges. The peculiarities of this view of life, the experience of the world are peculiarly refracted in the lyrical and tragic theme of the Chernobyl disaster.
