Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the scientific reception of the poetics of female experience in the lyrical prose of Olga Kobylianska and Ulyana Kravchenko. The relevance of the research topic is determined by the growing interest in female writing and the role of female writers in the formation of modern Ukrainian subjectivity. The aim of the article is to identify the peculiarities of the reception of artistic modelling of the inner world of women in the authors’ lyrical miniatures. The work analyses key emotional strategies, symbolic structures and figurative models of female experience as interpreted by representatives of feminist criticism and gender literary studies. Common and distinctive features in the creative approaches of female writers are identified. Prospects for further research include the study of media interpretations of lyrical prose and the expansion of comparative analysis in the context of European women’s writing.
