| Summary: | Ways of organizing the narrative system in his book “From the Polish Card of Leo Tolstoy”,
which was published in Olshtyn in 2003, and its constructiveness are characterized in this article,
which is based on analytical and hermeneutic and receptive methodology, taking into account the
assessments of an outstanding Polish scientist, Tolstoy expert, one of the organizers of Tolstoy science in Poland – Basil Byalokozovich by polonists O. Tsybenko, V. Khorev, O. Rozynska, I. Rudziewicz
and others. The expediency of raising the problem – the specifics of Polish scientist`s methodology,
is substantiated. In this regard, the purpose of this article is to describe the techniques and methods of organizing Byalokozovich`s narrative system aimed at achieving the greatest effectiveness of
textual discourse. The topicality of the problem is confirmed by the position of B. Yegorov: “Literary
work is unthinkable without the form analysis”. It is proved that B. Byalokozovich`s approaches to
the disclosure of the problems raised by him, the persuasiveness of his arguments, the skill of organizing the narrative system and the creation of a large dialogic field covering space-time from 1898
to the middle of the twentieth century are of great interest. It is emphasized that the text is built on
the classical principle – from the general picture to a detailed analysis of assessments of Tolstoy`s
works by Polish writers and scholars. B. Byalokozovich's emphasis on the fact that the novel “War
and Peace” came to Poland only in Western European languages, and the publication of small works
by Leo Tolstoy in “Warsaw Diary” was considered insignificant. The titles of all chapters-medallions are characterized as concentrated text. The methodological perspective of the content of the
monograph title “From the Polish Card of Leo Tolstoy” is considered, where the key role is played
by the word map, thanks to which all authors with their own conceptual vision of Leo Tolstoy appear visually and in dialogue on the space-time modus. Difficult relations between E. Ozheshko and
L. Tolstoy are shown on the basis of human documents: Polish writer throughout her life sought to
talk to him, but L. Tolstoy, giving way to her story “Jedna setna” (“One Hundredth”), spoke sharply
about E. Ozheshko`s sentimentalism. But the writer also subjected the composition of his novels to
merciless criticism. Attention is drawn to the following methodological feature of B. Byalokozovich,
manifested in the fact that he gives large fragments of evidence in the original language. This is fundamental because the scientist thus supports the position of O. Potebnia that the opinion expressed
in another language is different. It is noted that in B. Byalokozovich each section is a concentrated
monograph. B. Byalokozovich presented a complete picture of intellectual life of the whole era in
Russia, which is intense and full of contradictions. |
