Abstract
The article presents a scientific substantiation regarding the specifics and national-philosophical orientation of E. Malaniuk's literary essays. It is determined that for him it became a form of expression of the ideological culturological model of Ukraine. The poet's national-philosophical position in Ukraine and then abroad is characterized by the invariability of interpretation. For Malaniuk, the form of expression of national meaning was formed in poetry, and the deep worldview culturological model of Ukraine appeared in literary essays. The issues that arise in the process of comprehending the author's essay work, in particular the national-philosophical context of his literary-critical research, are covered. Malaniuk's essays ask and seek answers to serious questions: first, what caused the fatal Ukrainian history; secondly, how to influence the genetic spiritual shortcomings of Ukrainians; third, how to strengthen faith and national identity. Emphasis is placed on the phenomenon of intellectual potential of essay texts, Malaniuk's creative personality and his role in forming the position of Ukrainians in emigration. It is stated that the literary essay has become a model of creative and at the same time analytical work of the author, which is based on a significant array of interpretations of European cultural heritage. "The Book of Observations" in two volumes, Malaniuk's notebooks confirm the authentic methods of the essayist, his approaches and complex artistic interpretations. Malaniuk's essays are a deeply meaningful phenomenon that represents his legacy as an intellectual original position of focusing on the national question. His national philosophy, basically artistic, is based on the literary-theoretical concept that Malaniuk formed in his own essays, which arose on a certain margin of his life. It is concluded that the ideas expressed in his essays demonstrate the progress of the Ukrainian national idea and its active viability in emigration. The invariability of the position, the unshakable rank of Malaniuk not only attracts public attention, but acts as a leading position in the existence of Ukrainians in exile. His essays worked and, most importantly, are now able to work as a weapon in two directions: on the one hand, aimed at the colonial (and now – postcolonial) consciousness of mainland Ukrainians; on the other – positioning and perception of Ukraine by another spiritual environment on other continents (international branding in the world spiritual dimension).
