Collective Amnesia in Ian McEwan’s Lessons: A (New) World Order, Historical Memory and Phantom Pains of Greatness
(Faculty of Arts, University of Ostrava, 2024) Bohovyk, Oksana A.; Bezrukov, Andrii V.
ENG: Collective memory is actualised when a social group or a nation endeavours to reconstruct significant historical events giving them a certain interpretation. Historical exploration of the sources of a new world order and its fragility involves imperialist narratives being the causes of some geopolitical conflicts. All the great empires inevitably lose their power and status, but some former empires still feel the phantom pains of their former greatness, which may have unforeseen historical consequences. Ian McEwan’s latest novel, Lessons (2022), covers a long period of time to deliver a powerful meditation on history and humanity through one man’s life across generations and historical (un)doings. The article focuses on the literary representation of some historical contexts and attempts at resisting collective amnesia, in order to illustrate how a blatant disregard for the painful lessons of history invites the occurrence of new cruelties of imperialist ideology.
Colliding Utopian and Dystopian Worlds: Revising Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 and Ahmed K. Towfik’s Utopia
(Librarie Du Liban Publishers, Beirut, Lebanon, 2022) Bohovyk, Oksana A.; Bezrukov, Andrii V.
ENG: The article discusses two symptomatic texts that are imbricated within the utopian/dystopian ambience: Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury and Utopia by Ahmed Khaled Towfik. The style and structure of the selected novels are revealed at the level of the chronotope and aimed at clarifying the correlation of genre-forming components within the triad of a ‘person – civilisation – society’. This paper tests a hypothesis that the discursive representation of these components in a narrative structure is realised through colliding utopian and dystopian worlds. Problematising this idea in fiction reveals how the tension between the diametrically opposed worlds promotes critical scrutiny of both to draw attention to the most pressing social problems facing humanity: the role of ordinary people in society, impact of mass media on public opinion, dissolution of morals, social disparity, drug addiction, etc. The study primarily follows a phenomenological-hermeneutic approach to exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of utopian/dystopian worldviews in the literary dimension. The dichotomy of utopia/dystopia manifests in the novels through the overt conflict of different patterns of life, mentalities, and cultures. Analysing the ways of a literary embodiment of this conflict in Bradbury’s and Towfik’s books explicates how creating a new reality from utopian/dystopian perspectives alters consciousness and promotes a completely different paradigm of existence.
Communicative Methods of Forming Professional Competences of Future Foreign Specialists During Distance Learning of Ukrainian Language in HEIs
(Redfame Publishing, 2022) Zavaruieva, Inna; Bondarenko, Larysa; Lutsenko, Valentina; Nazarenko, Olena; Fedko, Olha
ENG: The COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's military aggression against Ukraine have surely influenced the intensive development of distance learning and showed the difficulties that occurred during the educational process, especially for foreign students. Under such conditions, the use of the latest means of teaching the Ukrainian language has become one of the main priorities for the training of future foreign specialists in higher education institutions. The purpose of the work is to analyze and identify effective methods that will develop communicative abilities of foreign students in the process of learning Ukrainian. During the study, video materials, dictionaries and color schemes were used, and the survey was conducted with second and third year students. The results of the research showed that introducing students to the cultural heritage of Ukraine before the direct study of the language increased their motivation and desire to learn Ukrainian. In addition, due to the use of role/business games and video materials in stages in accordance with their specialization, there was an increase in vocabulary, as indicated by high rates of listening. In case of problems with the perception of information and its adequate understanding (reception), mnemonics were used, which included non-verbal sign language or the principle of situationality. The study also showed that most students have difficulties with learning grammar. Therefore, the method of color schemes was used, which helped to focus on the exceptions and rules with a certain color. The methodology proposed by the authors was used in the study of cases of noun and adjective. At the same time, students independently chose colors and made an association with the concept indicated by the teacher. In addition, during the work it was advisable to use dictionaries, in particular, to search for words of foreign origin, which greatly influenced the process of proper understanding of the educational material by foreigners. The results show positive changes for effective, high-quality and fast learning of Ukrainian language by foreigners.
Conceptual View of the World and Means of Its Media Interpretation in Modern Theatrical Journalism of Ukraine
(Redfame Publishing, USA, 2022) Galatska, Valentyna L.; Filipenko, Viktoria; Mamchych, Inna; Dashko, Nataliia; Nechyporenko, Svitlana
ENG: The relevance of the study is determined by the fact that the methods of media interpretation of the worldview are shown in the ambiguity of the theatrical concept of view of the world in modern art. This is an important problem of the scientific tools development for the combination of different theatrical journalistic approaches, which are considered around the industry of mass culture, and have an impact on the development of social values in times of war tension. The conceptual view of the world in theatrical journalism allows a comprehensive approach to the diverse expression of symbolism, which the subjects build and reconstruct in the cultural field, demarcated in various institutional spaces. The purpose of the study is to consider the characteristics and elements of the communicative content of cultural and spiritual aspects of the worldview in the current space of theatre journalism. The following methods were used to achieve the stated purposes: system, content analysis method, and comparative. The work results determined that the concept of the modern worldview of Ukraine makes it possible to historically restore cultural traditions and their expression as a sample of the cultural structure the analysis. Theatre as a cultural element of a person forms their personality, starting with parallel events of present, based on a set of principles of society and culture. Philosophical structures, religions or political systems provide an interpretive basis with a complex vision, and sometimes with a resistant to changes vision. It was identified that questions about the world are inextricably connected with the development of culture and art. Possible answers to these questions are concentrated in works of art, the structure of which is based on original intuitions, concepts, categories, truths of the mind, axioms and symbols. All these factors create a semantic network that materialises in essential aspects of any human community. The practical significance is in the use of the work results by theatre journalists for the development of Ukrainian culture and independence during the Russo-Ukrainian war.
Creating Communicative Space and Textual Reality via Emotiogenic Means in Fictional Discourse
(Aesthetics Media Services, 2021) Bezrukov, Andrii V.; Bohovyk, Oksana A.
ENG: The article focuses on the strategies of reconstructing communicative space between the author and reader as well as forecasting the emotional impact on the reader through transforming textual reality. The emotiogenic characteristics of fictional discourse provide the emotional perception of literary texts since emotions are central to the experience of literary narrative fiction. Such a perception is made possible by the identification, comprehension, and interpretation of the emotionally significant textual components of different types. The authors of the article have classified them as the following: graphical and visual, punctuation, and semantic-stylistic ones. These means, found in the postmodern novels by Salman Rushdie, Tahereh Mafi, Marina Lewycka, Kazuo Ishiguro, Alexandar Hemon, and Stephen King, have been analysed to explicate the character of the phenomenon of emotiogenic fictional narratives. The emotiogenic means in the selected novels are exploited by the writers of different ethnic affiliations that can be resulted from their multicultural experience. The superimposition of some means is explained by their semantic relationship. The article tests a hypothesis that the cognitive architecture of the emotiogenic means is determined by an emotional situation reflected in a literary text that appears to be a special code through which readers interpret their emotional and evaluative meanings. The indicators of the text’s emotionality occur to be signs of the textual representation of emotional knowledge. This study contributes to the investigation of the emotiogenic means of creating communicative space which are considered those discursive expressive elements that affect the perception of textual reality.

Dialectics VS Hermeneutics: History and Literature in the Analysis of the Biographical Texts
(Мелітопольський державний педагогічний університет ім. Богдана Хмельницького, Мелітополь, 2017) Vlasova, Tetiana I.; Krivtchik, Gennadiy G.
EN: The “postmodern situation” demands to think of time and people historically in an age, when “objective history” is denied and rejected. One consequence of this paradox is predominance of hermeneutics in philosophy, literature, linguistics – science, in general. Everything is open to interpretation, varieties of interpretations of historic events and historical people are included in the hermeneutical discourse, incorporated with the problem of text in relation to genre. In biographies the real exists (and existed) but our understanding of it is always conditioned by different ways of talking and writing about it. The problem is that people still need objectivity; in reading “histories” – biographies included – we try to understand what is true, and what is opinionated, subjectivated and is simply deceit and fraud. Hence comes the importance of a dialectical method, – a method, which means weighing up contradictory facts or ideas with a view to the resolution of their real or apparent contradictions.

Emotion Concepts for Representing the Vicissitudes of Fate in Markus Zusak’s Bridge of Clay
(Київський університет імені Бориса Грінченка, Київ, 2022) Bezrukov, Andrii V.; Bohovyk, Oksana A.
ENG: The problem of studying emotionally expressive information contained in a text is of considerable interest since it interprets reality, expressing value or emotionally significant attitudes toward this reality. The analysis of the emotivity and expressiveness of a literary text focuses primarily on its research from the cognitive (separation of emotiogenic knowledge) and semantic (determining the features of its use to indicate the author’s purposes) perspectives. A literary text is considered as a dual dimension: on the one hand, it is related to emotions, and on the other hand, it is specified by them. The aim of the article is to identify and examine the emotional concepts represented in Markus Zusak’s Bridge of Clay for portraying the vicissitudes of fate. The breathtaking story revolves around the Dunbar family of ‘ramshackle tragedy’ and brims with pathos. To analyse the emotion concepts, the following methods have been employed: the methods of interpretation and systematisation; contextual, stylistic, and distributive analysis as also a method of emotional valence, and the hypothetico-deductive method. The results of the study show that emotion concepts in Zusak’s Bridge of Clay are realised at the following levels: phonetics, morphology, and semantics, which shows the universality of functioning emotion concepts in fictional discourse. The emotion concept appears as a single entity that consists of attributes of emotivity, which are anthropocentric and character-creating. The lexical units, chosen by Zusak, convey the author’s intentions, explicitly or implicitly indicating the emotional nature of the text. Since characters belong to the category of essential universals of a literary text, the emotional meanings included in its structure have a special informative significance. The character’s emotions are represented as the special psychological reality, and the set of emotions in the text appears as a kind of dynamic plurality that changes as the story develops.
Fighting Windmills: Quixotism and Old/New Issues Facing Humankind
(National University of Colombia (Bogotá Campus), 2024) Bezrukov, Andrii V.; Bohovyk, Oksana A.
ENG: The most recent reimagining of Miguel de Cervantes’s Don Quixote (1605) —Salman Rushdie’s Quichotte (2019)— represents the volatile identities in American society under the conditions of blurring a line between fact and fiction. Exploring quixotism as the conflict of idealism vs realism elucidates the idea of humans who fight with the windmills in their heads. Against the background of this conflict, topical concerns are vividly highlighted to remain constant throughout the centuries, considering specific historical and sociocultural circumstances. The impact of this binary opposition on the worldview of the people of that time and the modern ones, created by Cervantes and Rushdie correspondingly, is a primary focus of the article. Both novels share a symbolic reflection of the world through the distinct aesthetics of a work of fiction that moves them beyond metafictional narration. A comparative study of the diachronically different stories emphasises a similarity of the strong questions raised about the societies whose ideals quixotes reflect.
“Fluid” Temporality: The Conflict of Gender and Age in The Postmodern Socio-Cultural Context
(Aesthetics Media Services, India, 2022) Vlasova, Tetiana I.; Skyba, Eleonora; Vlasova, Olha; Liashenko, Iryna
ENG: Temporality, being an intrinsic property of the subject/object relations in the multiplicity of the socio-cultural and gender narratives, presents one of the most complicated ideas of postmodernity. The project of temporality embraces ambivalent scripts in their “momentous transition”, revealing the attempts at generalizing ages of men and women in the certain “unified” narratives. The latter is expressed in the triad paradigm of “past-present-future” with “present” as the dominating member. While conceptualizing binary oppositions, namely, the dualism “man/woman”, it is evident that nowadays the biological “intrinsic value” of the human being’s identity has become less relevant. The man/woman’s identity is not fixed anymore by anatomy, at present it is “fluid” with the time and age “shifts” of femininity and masculinity. The decentering “situation”, having transformed the temporal aspects of man/woman’s value in the social practices and corresponding narratives, nowadays demands their valorizing by means of the conceptual impact on the transformations of the “liquid temporality”.

“The Great Reset”: the Road to the Peaceful “New World” or a New Global War?
(Київський національний університет імені Тараса Шевченка, 2023) Vlasova, Tatiana; Litman, Maksym
ENG: The review deals with two books, which have caused much debate all over the world, the two authors who are much spoken about – with respect and disrespect, with recognition and contempt. “COVID-19: The Great Reset” by K. Schwab and T. Malleret claims that there has been nothing like COVID-19 in the modern history and points out that this kind of an existential crisis can facilitate introspection that leads to transformations. The supposed transformations are investigated by the authors both in macro categories and micro terms. The world is claimed to enter the chaotic crisis leading to the state of “uncertainty”. As a result, no extraordinary scenario can be excluded concerning geopolitical reset, ecological reset, technological reset and micro transformations with the individual reset. K. Schwab’s opponent, A. Jones, in his “Great Reset and the War for the World” proves that Schwab’s Great Reset represents the global elite’s intention of conspiracy in enslaving humanity both on the macro and micro levels. A. Jones is sure that K. Schwab’s strategy is to use the Great Reset for achieving an unprecedented control over the global problems and individuals’ lives. K. Schwab’s and A. Jones’ opposing arguments are interesting and persuasive. They both have many supporters and opponents of their theses all over the world.
Historical Narratives, Fictional Biographies, and Biblical Allusions in Aleksandar Hemon’s The Lazarus Project as a New Literary Hybrid
(Wuhan Guoyang Union Culture & Education Company, 2021) Bezrukov, Andrii V.; Bohovyk, Oksana A.
ENG: The article proposes a new perception of The Lazarus Project (2008) by Aleksandar Hemon. Literary transformation of the past events in light of historical experience, their reinterpretation, and adoption appear within the novel in the forms of history representation and memory production. The author's position in the book is actualised through its structure with alternating chapters and realised in two conflicting identities: a historian who just records events, and a creator who builds up the conditioned reality of the characters' world. The analysis of the novel's structure displays the hybridity of narrative strategies in historical, fictional, and biblical dimensions. Including photography in literary hybridisation highlights a means through which the forms of the representation of the author's worldview get separated from existing practices and recombine with new ones. The conjunction of biography, photography, space and time frames in The Lazarus Project refers to a specific type of narration that underlines its transnational character. The article also deconstructs the examples of biblical allusions and as direct so indirect references to the Bible that can be a way of transcending historical barriers. Originality in research of Hemon's novel as a representative of migrant literature consists in revealing the influence of transcultural narratives of contemporary postcolonial fiction on the migrant identity. The application of an interdisciplinary approach intends to demonstrate the diversity of narratives in the book as an original piece of postmodern metafiction.
