Проблема усної оповіді Г. Квітки-Основ'яненка в аспекті становлення нової української прози: зв'язки з фольклором та давньою книжністю

Abstract

The formation of H. Kvitka-Osnov’ianenko’s narrative manner is genetically related to folklore traditions. The folklore communicative model used by the writer, underwent certain transformations due to the specific form a literary work functions in. Thus, we argue that there is oral speech imitation as well as the illusion that the narrator is a reality, while being a factious individual. Besides, this narrative manner involves an imaginary reader / listener being present, as the one Hrytsko Osnov’ianenko’s communicates his ideas to. It is only natural that in this Ukrainian works the writer was also guided by preceding literary sources and their tradition. First of all, the ethics and morality cultivated in medieval and baroque literature of various genres was accepted by the writer with the view to the realization of the author’s educational intentions. It is most clearly noticeable in the instructive prefaces and conclusions which correlate with the exordium and conclux in rhetorical prose. In this way the author implemented the guidelines of ancient rhetorics, where a compulsory requirement was to get the message across in the form most accessible to the audience. The characters in “Malorossiyski Povesti” by H. Kvitka-Osnov’ianenko are generally deprived of personalized traits and embody the ideal of a commoner, which in many respects corresponds to the folklore and former literary traditions of imagemaking. We assume that certain adaptation of the above-mentioned traditions took place in the process of creating the image of a natural man in the Enlightment epoch. In addition, the system of tropes developed in folklore was found, appeared to be suitable in depicting sentimental characters.
