Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the evolution of Victor Domontovych’s creative thinking inhis last novel Without Foundation. This work of art became a resume of his writing and an intertextfor his philosophical and culturological research in scientific and critical articles from this period.The basic theme of this novel is the end of the epoch; the author addresses the theme of the exhaustionof modernity’s value and aesthetic systems, which formed the basis of his early artistic works.The analysis of Domontovych’s perception of the epoch boundary, his exhaustion of the culturalparadigm of modernism and the embodiment of his conclusions in the works make the researchrelevant, especially in terms of the changing landmarks of modern global culture. The research isbased on the structural-semiotic methodology of literary text interpretations, which allows the differentlevels of the text organization to be reviewed, thus reaching wider cultural generalizations.This study helps to better understand the author’s concept of the culture crisis and the poetics of thenovel Without Foundation.
