STYLISTIC MODIFICATIONS OF THE «GALICIAN-STANISLAV SCHOOL» IN THE PROSE OF HALYNA PETROSANYAK, SOFIA ANDRUHOVYCH AND TANYA MALYARCHUK

Attention is focused on the stylistic features of the latest novels «Forgetfulness» (2016) by T. Malyarchuk, «Amadoka» (2020) by S. Аndrukhovych and «Villa Anemona» (2021) by H. Petrosaniak − writers who either belonged to the «Stanislavsky phenomenon» or were formed within its aesthetics. If the postmodernism of the «Stanislav phenomenon» is characterized by micro-narratives, deconstruction of «big» ideas, irony, fantasy, myth, abstraction from reality, delving into the inner world of the individual, thus making their texts self-communicative, then their successors, on the contrary, turn to reality and metanarratives, prefer the plot writing, combine documentary literature with fiction, refuse irony, prefer sincerity and sensuality. This gives reason to talk about the formation of metamodernism in Ukrainian literature. The works of V. Yeshkilev and N. Bilotserkivets, who already in the 1990s – synchronously – identified the distinctiveness of the «Stanislav phenomenon» against the background of the «Kyiv-Zhytomyr school», have been utilized. The contributions of T. Grebenyuk and M. Pavlyshyn, who emphasized the specificity of geographical literary schools from a temporal perspective, have also been considered. In addition, articles by T. Grebenyuk and T. Pastukh on the issue of metamodernism, as well as the most representative reviews of the last three novels under discussion, were analyzed. The stylistic features of these works, in particular the return to realism and grand narratives, are interpreted as a natural change by analogy with T. Shevchenko’s rejection of humor and I. Kotlyarevsky’s burlesque in the 19th century. At the same time, the realism of the mentioned authors is a complex phenomenon due to hybrid writing, when the writers combine documentary with fiction or turn to topics that indicate the emergence of a new way of life – a new reality in particular military. Keywords: metamodernism, postmodernism, «Stanislav phenomenon», nonfiction, fiction, realism, hybrid genre.

Abstract

Attention is focused on the stylistic features of the latest novels «Forgetfulness» (2016) by T. Malyarchuk, «Amadoka» (2020) by S. Аndrukhovych and «Villa Anemona» (2021) by H. Petrosaniak − writers who either belonged to the «Stanislavsky phenomenon» or were formed within its aesthetics. If the postmodernism of the «Stanislav phenomenon» is characterized by micro-narratives, deconstruction of «big» ideas, irony, fantasy, myth, abstraction from reality, delving into the inner world of the individual, thus making their texts self-communicative, then their successors, on the contrary, turn to reality and metanarratives, prefer the plot writing, combine documentary literature with fiction, refuse irony, prefer sincerity and sensuality. This gives reason to talk about the formation of metamodernism in Ukrainian literature. The works of V. Yeshkilev and N. Bilotserkivets, who already in the 1990s – synchronously – identified the distinctiveness of the «Stanislav phenomenon» against the background of the «Kyiv-Zhytomyr school», have been utilized. The contributions of T. Grebenyuk and M. Pavlyshyn, who emphasized the specificity of geographical literary schools from a temporal perspective, have also been considered. In addition, articles by T. Grebenyuk and T. Pastukh on the issue of metamodernism, as well as the most representative reviews of the last three novels under discussion, were analyzed. The stylistic features of these works, in particular the return to realism and grand narratives, are interpreted as a natural change by analogy with T. Shevchenko’s rejection of humor and I. Kotlyarevsky’s burlesque in the 19th century. At the same time, the realism of the mentioned authors is a complex phenomenon due to hybrid writing, when the writers combine documentary with fiction or turn to topics that indicate the emergence of a new way of life – a new reality in particular military.
