@ARTICLE{Kraliuk_Petro_The_2021, author={Kraliuk, Petro and Karpovets, Maksym}, volume={vol. LXX}, number={No 2}, pages={331-345}, journal={Slavia Orientalis}, howpublished={online}, year={2021}, publisher={Komitet Słowianoznawstwa PAN}, abstract={The article examines the gnoseological and ontological dualism of Lesya Ukrainka’s drama‑fairy tale The Forest Song (Лісова пісня) as a way of expressing the writer’s rational‑intuitive cognition of the world. The gnoseological dualism is expressed in the combination of intuitive and transcendent knowledge of the world with a practical, rational approach to the formal side of The Forest Song. This vision reflected the main ideological and intellectual movements of the time that influenced Lesya Ukrainka. The ontological dualism is connected with the dialectic of the civilized (profane) and natural (sacred) worlds, which are interconnected with each other on the basis of harmony and order. In the text, Lesya Ukrainka prefers the natural world, which prevails over the material values of civilization. The researchers suggest that such a philosophical and ideological component of the text is connected with the writer’s biography, in particular her correspondence with intellectuals and writers of that time.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={The Gnoseological аnd Ontological Dualism оf Lesya Ukrainka’s The Forest Song}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/120415/2021-02-SOR-04-Kraliuk.pdf}, doi={10.24425/slo.2021.137513}, keywords={Lesya Ukrainka, gnoseology, ontology, transcendental knowledge, civilization and nature}, }
