Український пісенний дискурс: сучасні символи

Abstract

The modern Ukrainian song discourse and its features and symbols are examined in the article; the main linguistic notions are highlighted: text, discourse, song text, song discourse. It was found that the notions of «text» and «discourse» are not identical, but have a common field of operation, which consists in the dynamics of the text. It is emphasized that discourse as a communicative process is closely connected with the cognitive sphere of the individual, society and culture in general. The meaning that is verbalized in a song is always subject to interpretation. Each song genre defines specific parameters and rules of communication, because in the process of interaction, certain ideas about the surrounding world, considerations, thoughts, impressions, desires are actualized. Lyrical songs unite communicators, reveal and manifest the internal connection between them. So, firstly, at present, songs about the war, about our modern history of victorious struggle for our national identity, constitute a significant percentage of the modern national song discourse as a completely independent linguistic and cultural substance. Song discourse on military themes is distinguished by a special communicative orientation, since its symbols and images are dedicated to the events of the Russian-Ukrainian aggression, in modern culture they form the space of Ukrainian national identity, they become the basis for the affirmation of general life values and meanings common to our entire generation. Secondly, the Ukrainian song currently holds the linguistic front, the song unites people. Thirdly: being Ukrainian today is a special mission in the world, a global trend.
