Abstract

Phenomenological experiments by T. Prokhasko are primarily related with the attempts of the characters in his texts to objectively describe and learn what is usually considered to be subjective - consciousness, feeling, perception. Verbalization of such a life philosophy has affected the specifics of the language in his works. The language-game in the texts of the collection "The Lexicon of Secret Knowledge" is used on the phonetic, lexical and syntactic levels. Language-game on the syntactic level is crucial for writer’s idiostyle, because it is created by using stream of consciousness technique, cataloging, cinematography, recombination, detailing, etc. Language-game on the syntactic level is used to put emphasis on the details of the author's point of view, in an attempt to present reality not by the description of the reality, but by passing impressions of it. Because of that the syntax of Taras Prokhasko is complex and consists of repetitions, chiasmuses, amplifications, and other types of complex sentence structure. All of this is in order to convey the aesthetic principles of phenomenology to the reader.
