Anthropological Dimension of National and Cultural Context in John Keat’s Poetry: the Dialogue between Poet and Motherland.

Abstract

Poetic actualization of nationally specific concepts in Keats’s poetry is anthropocentric in its nature. Keats poetic conceptualization discloses itself as a reflection of creative and cognitive activity of a poetic personality, directed towards representation of the national environment in the system of multilevel senses that fix poly cultural experience of the nation aggregated in the literary universe of different epochs and ethnos. The anthropocentric nature of national space poetic representation consists in the interrelations of the elements belonging to three basic semantic domens: “the poet” as the preserver of invaluable ethnically specific and universal knowledge; “myth” – mythologeme, association, allusion representing the dialectics of the cultural evolution of the nation, the most typical impressions and stereotypes in the structure and forms of literary consciousness; “nature” – inspired physical substance of the being existing in its primary forms of human and social adaptation to geographic environment, forms of cultural and artistic experiences.
