Abstract
Bohdan-Ihor Antonych is one of the most researched poets in Ukrainian literary criticism, but the problem of artistic explaining of the sacrum category in his works still demands the attention of researchers. The purpose of our study is to trace the peculiarities of the artistic comprehension of the sacred space in the collection «The Great Harmony» by Bohdan-Ihor Antonych, to analyze Christian topos and the artistic reflections of the author as to the sacred space. Bohdan-Ihor Antonych thinks the sacred places are places connected with the biblical events. So, in the poem «Liber peregrinorum, part 3», the artist introduces the image of Jerusalem, the sacredness of which is confirmed in the Bible. But the sacred space is not limited only by the geographic toposs for him. The poet thinks that in the plan of God the whole universe is dispensed with the privilege of sacredness, as evidenced by such verses as «Ut in omnibus glorificetur Deus», «Musica noctis», «Te Deum laudamus», «Deus magnitucus», «Te Deum laudamus, 2». In the physical space there are places, dispensed with special sacredness – these are temples. In the works of Bohdan-Ihor Antonych we will find a few remarkable examples that testify to the poet’s reverence before the sacredness of the temple – these are «Carpenter’s son», «Te Deum laudamus, 2», «Green holidays». The greatest admiration of Bohdan-Ihor Antonych is the man as the temple of God, more exactly, his heart, which is the main organ of religious sensations in the understanding of the poet, it generates the aspiration for God as a source of faith. These motifs are in such works as «Veni Sancte Spiritus», «Salve Regina», «Magnificat» and others. Thus, the sacred space in «The Great Harmony» by Bohdan-Ihor Antonych is presented with the help of the sacred geographical toposs to Christians, through the image of the sacredness of the universe, and most importantly – through the artistic understanding of the symbol of the heart as the fullness of spiritual life and the place of meeting with the Divine.
