This article tries to outline the differential peculiarities of images in the modern Ukrainian prose, particularly in historic fantasy Iz siomoho dna (2011) by Yaroslava Bakalets and Yaroslav Yarish. The historic prose of the early XXI century is an inhomogeneous, contrastive and diversified phenomenon. The peculiarity of Ukrainian postmodernism lies in literature democratization, reaccentuation of traditional themes and topics, representation and reinterpretation of images, game principles of modelling, the ironicalness of author’s position, etc. The topicality of this article is driven by the need of analysis of the dynamics of real and mystical images in national and specific contexts in the modern literature. The novelists succeeded referring to the everlasting matter, which is the most important historic valuables of the Ukrainians, by corresponding them to romantically rethought images. The article states that the novel models the perception of the past, and defines it in terms of modern moral and ethic values, and thus allows to bring to light the nature of changes in person’s characteristics in the current present. The lyrical and emotional component is the important component of the characterizations’ formation. The novelists correspond important qualities of reality to the reader’s mind, and it provides historic basis and timeless existence for existential definitions of characters. The commitment to Christian spiritual values and national and state constituent explains the humanistic solution of the wide variety of issues. It determines that the concerned novel is interested not only because of its theme, since it represents one of the most tragic period in the history of Ukraine – the Great Ruin (mid-to-late XVII century), but also because it treats the past in terms of the desired ideal, which forms the national consciousness.Downloads
