Abstract

 Este artigo problematiza a formação do tema da COVID-19 como parte do discurso cultural ucraniano. No âmbito deste estudo, formou-se um repositório de amostras representativas da literatura, analisaram-se textos do folclore moderno dedicados a este tema, bem como seleções de obras poéticas. As características da comunicação durante a pandemia e a sua influência na criatividade literária foram estabelecidas. A investigação realizada permitiu tirar conclusões sobre a presença, na cultura ucraniana, de um esquema de resposta a fenômenos de crise oriundos da pandemia da COVID-19, que envolve a formação de um conjunto de textos de circulação popular sobre o tema, na forma de poesia, performances etc., depois em prosa, e, um novo conjunto, na fase final de assimilação dos fenômenos pelo discurso cultural
