Ways of artistic understanding of historical memory in modern belarusian prose about the Great Patriotic war

Abstract

Modern Belarusian literature about the Great Patriotic War contains both a reception of the traditions of Soviet military literature and their deconstruction. In modern prose, it is not personal military experience (not the tragedy of one’s own generation) that is subject to artistic comprehension, but the historical memory of the country and the Belarusian people, which presupposes new approaches to the creation of cognitive artistic models and new ways of philological explication of cultural and social codes. The functional spectrum of social and cultural implications of historical memory demonstrates the axiological range of modern Belarusian literature about the Great Patriotic War.
