MYTHOLOGICAL REPRESENTATIONS IN ORAL TRADITION AND THEIR TRANSFORMATION IN WRITTEN CULTURE

Abstract

In this article the author considers the mythological interpretation of singer’s ideas in oral tradition and their transformation in the incipient literature, connected with drastic reconsideration of the poetic word and its narrative capacity in written culture. Traditional ideas of a singer are transformed into an idea of the distinct path of a poet with his own biography. These transformations coincide with the formation of the poetic speech basis, which also cannot be sung, of the text in early literature.
