Lost Future. Mykola Khvylovyi "Tram Letter"

Postcolonial landmarks of the early 21st century create the conditions for the revival and emergence of oppressed cultures, languages, and literatures in the recent past. These issues are especially acute during the war between Ukraine and Russia in 2022. The source should be sought in past historical conflicts, including the early 20th century. One of the powerful and talented artists who tried to revive, develop and rehabilitate the "Ukrainian" in the beginning 20-th century contrary to the official Russian system, there was a prominent Ukrainian writer Mykola Khvylovy (1893-1933), who literally gave his life for it. The scientific problem is to identify the aesthetic modernist dominants of Mykola Khvylovy's work. In addition to European principles, the formation of Ukrainian national identity at the language level traces in poetic works of art. The purpose is to study women's artistic images, consciousness and character of the heroine, conflicts between men and women, their attitude to family and child on the level of modernist principles in Mykola Khvylov's poetry "Tram Letter" in terms of poetic analysis. This reveals the ideas: the doom of person in the bloodshed and death of wars and revolutions; denial of humanity, love itself; Ukrainian national idea.
