Urban space: archetypal models, morphological properties, mythological plots. The methodology of comprehensive study

Abstract

The object of the study is the cultural space of the city. The subject of the study is the morphological properties and mythological plots of the cultural space of the city (using the example of Komsomolsk-on-Amur). The author examines in detail the complex study of the cultural space of the city in the prism of historical-cultural, philosophical-cultural, psychoanalytic, symbolic, linguistic and semiological approaches. The author's method of exploring urban space has been formed, based on the line of myth (lemniscata Bernoulli). Literary and artistic works have been studied and reviewed to identify archetypal models and their morphological properties of the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur. Some mythological plots and ways of transforming cultural space are revealed. Special attention is paid to the analysis of artistic texts to identify the artistic image of the cultural space of the city. The description of a number of architectural objects and the interpretation of some decorative elements are presented. The study uses traditional approaches to the study of the cultural space of the city, and also attempts to complement the boundaries of the study based on the interpretation of mythical plots, mythologems using a technematic component – the Bernoulli Lemniscate. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the fact that on the basis of traditional and technematic approaches, the cultural space of the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur is studied based on the analysis of mythological plots of the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur, artistic texts, literary and architectural works. The morphological properties of the cultural space of the city are revealed. The main conclusion of the study is that using an interdisciplinary approach in the study of the cultural space of the city, opportunities for its identification have been identified. With the help of technematics or mathematical analysis, interpretation of literary and artistic texts, as well as a comprehensive study of architectural objects and its decorative, expressive means, it became possible to interpret this knowledge as a way to transform the cultural space of the city. This study opens up opportunities for a more thorough study of the myth line as one of the possible options for transforming the city's space, preserving historical, architectural, artistic and literary heritage.
