Abstract

Ukrainian literature of the 1960-80s is notable for the creative achievements of the Sixtiers, the hermeticism of Kyiv school poetry, Samvydav activity, and dissident nonconformism, which was aesthetically enriched by the poetic movement of “silent poetry”. His creative practice involved a latent rejection of the political state, which imposed its ideological criteria on the culture. Poets continued to defend the right to creative self-realization, which gave impetus to the ideological and artistic formation of “silent poetry” by the efforts of I. Zhylenko, S. Yovenko, A. Kychynskyi, V. Pidpalyi, L. Skyrda, L. Talalai, P. Movchan, D. Cherednychenko and others, whose aesthetic dominants of creativity are characterized by existential, cordo-centric and natural philosophical motives. This generation was in search of an individual manner, expressed national consciousness and recognized the autonomy of the poet and art.
