Ikomasova O. The aesthetic functions of the lyrical hero (on the material of the Ukrainian poetry of the beginning of 20th century).

Thesis is devoted to the one of the urgent problems of the contemporary study of literature – the problem of the subject structure of the lyrical utterance. On the basis of U. Tinjanov’s theory of lyrical hero the author overcomes the gap between the psycho-biographical and abstractly structural methods of approach to the nature of the lyrical poetry. The fundamental architectonic scheme of the lyrical subject structure is proposed to the analytical approbation: aesthetic author – lyrical subject – lyrical personage. Aiming at the ontological interpretation of the lyrical utterance the author raises the problem of the precise differentiation between the architectonic scheme of the lyrical utterance and its casual psychological filling as composition form. Psycho-physical interpretation of time and space as fundamental modus of the person’s existence is viewed by the author as the sphere of transmission of empirical experience into the lyrical utterance. The aesthetic function of the lyrical subject ishis out-of-temporal activity, the aesthetic function of the lyrical personage is connected with completion in the composition form of the lyrical utterance.
