Еротизація дискурсу смерті у романі Олеся Ульяненка «Софія»

Abstract

This article presents an alternative to the traditional methodologies of studying a literary work, a variant of theoretical-literary analysis, based on a body-mimetic interpretation of the novel by Sofia Oleś Ulyanenko, one of the most talented and controversial contemporary Ukrainian writers. The proposed innovative research method made it possible to find in the analyzed novel not only the dominant feeling of fear of life and death, but also facilitated the observation of attempts to obviously overcome this fear in a deviant way, which in turn mean the affirmation of life and overcoming death.
