«FOREST SONG» BY LESIA UKRAINKA AS MYTHOLOGY «DEATH RESURRECTION»

Summary/Abstract: In the article, in the context of mythological and literary traditions, Lesya Ukrainka's drama-fantasy is considered as the ideological and artistic realization of the philosophy of eternal return, in particular in the aspect of the mythology of «death-resurrection». The specificity of such aspects as the cyclicity of being, the antinomy of the world, elements of earth and fire, the otherworldly, psycho-characteristic of the Ukrainian world is traced. Mythological and psychoanalytic approaches provided the reading of the primitive / deep and social in the text. In particular, the psychological characteristics of the heroes of the work are noted: the infantilism of Lukash, his mother as a false woman, the accentuate personality of the Carpathian. It is noted that the life story of Lukash is the development, decay and revival of love as a spiritual beginning; his state of wolves can be regarded as a phenomenon of temporary death. It is proved that the mythology of «death - the resurrection» is decisive in the poetry of Lesya Ukrainka's «Forest Song».
