The literary-critical discourse of the first Ukrainian Renaissance.

Abstract

The literary discussion of 1925-28 of the twentieth century can be called without exaggeration an epochal event for the Ukrainian literature, as it has laid the foundation for the further development of national literary discourse. Among the conceptual problems that were resolved in the course of debate on the pages of periodicals, it must be highlighted how to determine the ways of renovation of the writer's discourse in the beginning of the twentieth century with a possible focus on the classic examples of national literature and on the «psychological» Europe, the search for opportunities to improve writing skills of the beginning Ukrainian writers, etc. The most active participants of this process are Khvylovy N., Zerov N. and Pilipenko S.
