ЗАСТОСУВАННЯ ПРИНЦИПУ МІЖДИСЦИПЛІНАРНОСТІ ДО РОЗШИРЕННЯ МЕТОДОЛОГІЇ ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ ТВОРЧОСТІ О. ДОВЖЕНКА

Abstract

Guided by the principle of interdisciplinarity, the article proposes a methodology for the cultural analysis of O. Dovzhenko's works using the method of ethnographic description. The above-mentioned methodology makes it possible to investigate the issue of the difference between Ukrainian and Russian culture, which is significant nowadays, as well as to determine the direction of the development of the Ukrainian culture in order to create the conditions necessary for bourgeois transformations in society. By applying the method of ethnographic description to the study of Dovzhenko's films, we had the opportunity to find out the philosophical contexts, social relations and cultural practices that are relevant to the Ukrainian culture. In addition, the study highlighted the personal attitude of the great director to the ability of the Ukrainian culture to build a bourgeois-democratic society. The methodological practices of the Lipset-Hall school and the British School of Cultural Studies were involved in the research. This allowed us to conduct culturometry and typology of the Ukrainian culture. In particular, the paper investigated the cultural parameters of collectivism/individualism, masculinity/femininity, long-term/short-term orientation, and power distance. The suggested practices made it possible to determine the type of society built by the Ukrainian culture as triadic, individualistic with a medium-term orientation. The triadic society of Ukraine has a fundamental difference from the dyadic society built by the Russian culture. According to O. Dovzhenko, in the future, the Ukrainian culture would be capable of building a bourgeois-democratic society, based on the state-building theory of multiculturalism and individual liberalism, through the development of law, private property, and institutions for ensuring civil and economic freedoms. In the result of the evolutionary development of the Ukrainian culture, the philosophical contexts, social relations and cultural practices of representatives of the Ukrainian society will certainly change in the direction of increasing masculinity, individualism and reducing the distance of power.
