Abstract

The article is devoted to understanding the theoretical model of the biographical essay realized by Borys Hrinchenko in a number of studies by analyzing the logic of structuring, content, and reviewers' comments. In the article have analyzed popular science publications for the poorly educated, scientific research, anniversary editions, and commemorative publications in terms of content, structure, and their functional role; established the transformations of the chosen theoretical model; finded out the reaction of the critics of the time to the emergence of B. Hrinchenko's biographical essays. To achieve this goal, genre, plot, and narrative analysis methods were used in conjunction with the method of receptive aesthetics. It was found that despite their focusing on different recipients, all the texts included in the object of study have signs of the popular science biographical genre of the second half of the 19th century. The artist's representation in the literary process of the period is the basis for writing his biography. The achievement of the expected results depends on the author's recognition: emphasizing the importance of his works for the people or revealing aspects of his talent. B. Hrinchenko kept a temporal distance from the object of scientific attention for the sake of objectivity and impartiality. As a researcher, he carried out methodologically competent preparatory work: he studied original prints, manuscripts, epistolary, memoirs of contemporaries, etc. Most of the biographical texts are structured: they are divided into sections according to the chronological principle. If there is material available, the article reconstructs the writer's working day, describes his or her relationships with family, etc. The last section, according to Borys Hrinchenko, should emphasize the writer's contribution to art and the importance of their heritage for the nation. The author also inlaid definitions of basic scientific concepts accessible to the reader in the context of the writer's work, such as «theater», «actor», «joke», «drama», «tragedy» and «opera» (in the work «Ivan Kotliarevskyi»).
