THE PECULIARITIES OF FORMING OF ANTROPOCETRE IN UKRAINIAN NOVEL STUDY OF SECOND HALF OF XIX CENTURY

Abstract

The article analyzes the peculiarities of the construction of anthropocentre in Ukrainian novel study of the second half of the XIX century in connection with the strengthening of the tendency for homocentrism, which determined the purpose and the sphere of the studio observation. The result of the analysis of the literary material was differentiation and study of the factors influencing on methods, techniques, means of the depicturing of the world and a man in it, taking into account the objective (extra-literary) and subjective (proper aesthetic) priorities of the author’s thinking: respectively, historical, political, ideological and cultural-artistic. The novel anthropocenters (mainly on the example of the socio-psychological and psychological genre form) in the projection to dominant mono- and bi-centric structures were observed, the peculiarities of a person’s depicturing as a unique object that forms his own behaviour , which is the focus of the outside world, are commented. The main methods of characters’ forming are named; they are self-analysis up to the “ stream of consciousness ”, dreams, hallucinations, dynamic portraiture, and symbolism of colour. The conclusion about advantages and prospects of studying of the novel corpus of the period on the basis of complex research of the semantic- and form-forming elements that build the model of the world is made. Thus, it is emphasized, on the one hand, on psychologism, lyricalization, intimization, in other words, introspective feature, and, on the other hand, the radical transformation of oriented towards a collective, individual, and individualistic vision of the laws of the world’s development into the introspection of the vision of a human as a self-sufficient entity that forms itself and the environment. In general, the dependence of the dynamics of the literary process in connection with the change of the philosophical, aesthetic paradigm of the development of society is grounded: from the traditional to the modern, from didactics to psychologism. Key words : novel, homocentrization, structure, human, person, world, character’s creation.
