Abstract
The purpose of the study is to identify a new type of a hero in novels by two Scandinavian writers associated with the modernist movement: “Hunger” by K. Hamsun and “Days of Loneliness” by A. Strindberg. The article clarifies correlation between a protagonist’s image and the narrative technique “stream of consciousness”. The research is novel in that it analyses in great detail the nature of the main characters created by the two Scandinavian authors, whose creative work is transition to modernism. As a result, basing on the comparative-typological, hermeneutical method, the researcher has identified a new type of a hero of the Scandinavian modernist novel (an intellectual who is aware of their detachment from the world), as well as techniques of a new type of narrative (“stream of consciousness”).
