Abstract

Unlike many previous ones which contained authors’ socially conditioned interpretations of Oles Ulianenko’s works, the article suggests an original, poetically determined, psychoanalytical reading of Zymova povist. As a result, the conclusion is that in this short but aesthetically powerful work of fiction of unclear genre, plot and theme, the Ukrainian author offers a concentrated, concise presentation of polysemous and expressive archetype images, which are obviously connected with social-historical, moral-ethical, and philosophical subject matter which found its in-depth representation in his later literary work. Above all, however, in this particular work of fiction, Ulianenko depicts how death is defeated by repeated victory.
