The semiosphere of the art of the artistic word in ukrainian stage culture in the second half of the 20th – beginning of the 21st centuries

Abstract

The article deals with the semiosphere of artistic expression in the Ukrainian culture in the second half of the 20th – beginning of the 21st centuries. The author presents a semantic-semiotic analysis of its genre varieties and forms, traditional for this period's performance. Considering the two directions of the stage embodiment of non-dramaturgical material – that of a reader and an actor – the theatrical sign systems related to the artistic word are separated and systematized, their role and correlation with the text in the stage embodiment are determined. Theater and literature related to the latest technology in the arts have led to the search for innovative formats of the text's stage embodiment. It contributes to creating a radically new semiosphere of the art of artistic word, which has been increasingly asserting itself since the beginning of the 21st century.
