often risking their health and lives, treating prisoners for typhoid, worms, and the like in the camp. In general, the scholars have managed to identify more than 100 captive

Postmodernism. Ivano-Frankivsk: Lileia-NV, 2018. 400 p.
ISBN 978-966-6681-452-6
Relying on the studies of domestic and foreign scholars, the most commonly
used terminological allologs, which identify the conceptual range of the categories
emblem and emblematicity, have been defined. The study uses a diachronic approach
to monitor the modification of emblematic forms and to outline the historical
perspective of this genre development. The interrelationship between an emblem and
hieroglyph, metaphor, metonymy, allegory, word picture, etc., in general, those
phenomena that offer various types of literary delimited ‘transitions’, belonging to
the indirect expressions of cognitive prototypicality and significativity has been
traced.

“Prosvita”, 2018. 196 p.
ISBN 978-617-7201-69-3
The book centers on the study of the entire corpus of artistic work by Uliana
Kravchenko (1860–1947). The main emphasis is placed on the analysis of the lyrical
type of the writer’s talent. Ms Kravchenko’s eminetly lyrical way of artistic thinking
is represented by her several collection of works. Their image-motif system reveals
the dominance of the so-called leader neo-romantic discourse next to which functions
the symbolist and realistic poetics of landscape, personal and social contrasts, as well
as the motif of serving the people in terms of nurturing public spirit of children
through the word.
