Gerasymchuk V.A. Art reception of myths “Noah’s Ark” in a philosophical novel XX cen. // Actualni filosofski ta kulturologichni problem suchasnosti: Zb. nauk. pr. – K.: Vyd. tsentr KNLU, 2005. – № 15. – P. 136–143.
Myth as “integral element of literature” in contemporary cultural studies like no other worldview system matches the aesthetic artifacts of XX century. Established in spiritual dimensions of an era through archetypal image creation, myth demonstrates the desire of artistic consciousness of XX century for the cultural universalism and syncretism outlook more fully. The Mythologems are constants and dominants of these processes, revealing deep symbolic meaning of which we can reconstruct a complete picture of the world, submitted in the text.
The purpose of the article is to analyze and synthesize an innovative actualization of an archetype and a mythologem in the Noah’s Ark in the genre of the philosophical novel, and to make their mythological reproduction at the level of the philosopher.
