ПСИХОАНАЛІТИЧНИЙ ВМІСТ АҐОНУ: ДРАМАТУРГІЯ ЛЕСІ УКРАЇНКИ

The article deals with the need to consider the scenography and stage speech of LesyaUkrainka from a psychoanalytic point of view. It is argued that in modern times, psychoanalytic theory considers the inner world by analogy with the archaic picture of the world: it divides it into conscious (ideal, sacred) and unconscious (worldly, profane). Human idealism correlates with the belief in the unlimited possibilities of the mind, and awareness of the imperfections of the human being is increasingly associated with irrational processes rooted in the realm of instincts, that is profane reality. In LesyaUkrainka's drama, the details of the stage space are emphasized in dialogues, which often acquire the intensity of a verbal competition, agon. It is in them that the symbols receive a tangible psychoanalytic content. The example of the drama “Stone Master” explains how the symbolic image acquires a psychoanalytic meaning.
