STYLE PECULIARITIES OF OLEKSA HAI-HOLOVKO’S LIRICS

Abstract

The article is an attempt to comprehend the stylistic specifics of the lyrical works of the Ukrainian writer Oleksa Hai-Holovko (1910–2006), who lived in Canada. His diverse artistic heritage (poetry, prose, memoirs, literary criticism, study of literature) includes dozens of books and articles published mainly in a multicultural environment (Poland, Germany, England, Canada).The author did not recognize the modern style,he even ridiculed the modernists, strictly adhered to the rational concept of modeling the artistic world. It is proved that the structure of individual poems the poet reinforces with a kind of psychologism, which is specified by expressive coloring.The subject during the utterance is commensurate with the object of the artistic image, so its inner world is equivalent to the sphere of experiences, emotions, feelings,it appears to the reader energetically and deeply dynamically.It has been found out that the poet framed the perfection of the idea by trope means, the words of figurative meaning became the decoration of the correlation (ratio) of aesthetic elements of lyricizing“I –the Other”. Hai-Holovko’s poems are full of symbols, semantic nuances that convey the mood of the lyrical narrator, whose narration is projected on the reader, aesthetic perception and rethinking of ontological parameters.Stylistic peculiarities of the poet’s lyrics can be clearly traced on the receptive, aesthetic, versification levels.
