The text provides a synthetic view of the key subject matters of the contemporary Ukrainian literature i.e. Mother/Ukraine. The authoress analyses the subject matter in the context of the symbolism of Ukraine as a lonely mother devoid of the right to walk her own way, a mother in flood of tears, infinitely unhappy, raped and defamed by ruthless oppressors/drifters. With the use of the colonial discourse technique the authoress analyses this feminine image of the motherland on this basis of the works of Taras Shevchenko, Yevhen Malaniuk and Mykola Khvylovyi - artists, who created the most distinctive and representative literary patterns and models of interpreting the Ukraine motif in the 19th and 20th century Ukrainian literature.
