On April 21, the Ukrainian Language Department took part in the scientific-theoretical webinar “Artistic and Journalistic Discourse in Modern Linguistic and Cultural Transformation of Ukraine”, which was organized and conducted by the Department of Stylistics, Language Culture and Sociolinguistics of the Institute of Ukrainian Language.
The leading Ukrainian linguists Svitlana Bybyk, Halyna Syuta, Lesia Movchun, Tetiana Kots, Natalia Holikova and others offered for public discussion own research of modern artistic and journalistic texts, in particular the use of new nominative, meaningful language units, ways of transmitting factual, contextual and subtextual information, use of vocabulary in terms of its normative, rhyming, spelling features of Ukrainian language, transformation of Ukrainian consciousness , formation of new spatial, objective, mental language images caused by war, etc.

Of particular interest was the study of Svitlana Bybyk, dedicated to the novel by Serhii Zhadan “Voroshilovgrad”.

The participants of the webinar noted the urgency of the problems of reflecting the linguosophy of existence in modern texts, the study of artistic and journalistic discourse as an environment for the formation of linguistic and cultural memory in linguistic and aesthetic signs of the times. Scientists presented today’s understanding of the problems and noted the need to rethink them after some time.

The problem of distinguishing the features of urban rhyme in the figurative organization of poetic texts, evaluation of Gogol’s work for the development of Ukrainian culture in general and interpretation of the ideological content of the writer’s texts in connection with modern events in Ukraine provoked discussion.

The director of the Institute of the Ukrainian Language of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Prof. Pavlo Hrytsenko: “There should be a road map that will determine how we should move forward.” The researcher also drew attention to the urgent need to rethink the teaching of the Ukrainian language in secondary and higher education, which is especially important for the professional activities of teachers of the Ukrainian Language Department.
