Po II wojnie światowej antologia literacka staje się jednym z najważnejszych sposobów reprezentacji literatury ukraińskiej, który zmienia się w zależności od definiowania i redefiniowania statusu pisarza. Podczas gdy w literaturze radzieckiej pod opieką Akademii Nauk pojawiają się wydania wielotomowe, konstruujące postać pisarza jako uczestnika socjalistycznej reorganizacji rzeczywistości, antologie emigracyjne rozwijają mit o pisarzu jako twórcy świata słów, stającego się nową „przestrzenią spotkania” dla całej wspólnoty kulturowej.Antologie literackie opublikowane po upadku Związku Radzieckiego (których liczba rośnie wielokrotnie) odzwierciedlają wszystkie problemy transformacji tożsamości autorów od wieszcza do gracza w niepewnej rzeczywistości, a także różne modele mitologizacji twórczości od romantyzmu do postmodernizmu. W tym kontekście szczególnie widoczna staje się zmiana natury gatunkowej antologii, która stopniowo przechodzi z kolekcji do projektu. Z jednej strony zauważalny jest efekt komercjalizacji literatury w warunkach rynkowych, przekształcenie pisarza w „producenta” towaru tekstowego. Z drugiej strony, obok klasycznego pisarza, który w uznawany przez czytelników sposób reprezentuje wartości estetyczne, powstaje postać pisarza jako intelektualisty publicznego, podejmującego wyzwanie tworzenia nowych zmysłów i nowych formwypowiedzi na aktualne tematy.

After the II World War, literary anthology has become one of the most important means of representing Ukrainian literature, and it has changed depending on the definition and redefinition of the writer’s status. In the meantime, in the Soviet literature under the supervision of the Academy of Sciences, there appear multi-volume editions constructing the figure of the writer as a participant in the socialist reorganization of reality, emigration anthologies develop the myth of the writer as the creator of the textual world, becoming a new “common place” for the entire cultural community. Literary anthologies published after the collapse of the USSR (whose number has grown manyfold) reflect all the problems of transforming the identity of the author from the prophet to the player in an uncertain reality, as well as various models of mythologizing creativity from romanticism to postmodernism. In this context, the change in the genre of anthology becomes especially noticeable; it gradually moves from the collection to the project. On the one hand, commercialization of literature in market conditions and the transformation of the writer into a “producer” of textual goods are visible. On the other hand, next to the classic writer who, in a manner recognized by readers, represents aesthetic values, there emerges the figure of a writer as a public intellectual who undertakes the challenge of creating new meanings and new forms of expression on current issues.

This article examines the drama Joanna the Wife of Chuza (1909) by Lesya Ukrainka, who is one of the defining figures in the history of modern Ukrainian literature. This work is considered an example of creating a new communicative model, introducing the poetics of an open work in the Ukrainian literature and establishing a new relationship between writer and audience. The incompleteness of the central image of this work, and therefore of the corresponding behavioral model and worldview, leads to the absence of a plot ending which would be the final solution to the conflict. In this way, Ukrainka establishes a new reading practice, not limited to experiencing the ‘life world’ of the author’s work. As reference to the history of thetext shows, it corresponds to the author’s conscious instruction, with which the composition of the work agrees: the events take place in a special period of time, when the previous story has already ended and the new one has not yet begun (after the crucifixion of Christ, but not after the resurrection). At the same time, the spatial organization of the work emphasizes the position of readers, turning them from interested witnesses to active searchers. The example of Joanna is all the more telling because it undermines the hegemony of the novel in twentieth-century literature and draws attention to literary forms that correspond to a particular literary situation, especially that of ‘submerged population groups’ (Frank O’Connor). The change introduced by Lesya Ukrainka at the level of a separate work is also a change within the genre as a way of communicating between an author and a reader; it is also a change in the very notion of literature as a certain type of aesthetic experience and as a culturally established way of cognitive and rhetorical response to a certain type of situation.
