Abstract

The theory of precedent is one of the most actively developing areas in modern literary criticism. In modern literature, especially in Armenian poetry of recent decades, the most popular and frequent sources of precedent are mythical and biblical texts, Christian myths. The use of myth in a literary work and the transformation of myth help create a unique literary symbolic world in which the multifaceted aspects of contemporary reality are intricately reflected. Therefore, a comprehensive analysis of the application of myth in a literary text becomes the key through which one can unveil the mystery of the work's unifying power and characterize the philosophical nature and spirit of a particular historical period. The use of myth in a literary work manifests in different ways. In some cases, it involves identical repetitions of mythic plots, while in others, it serves a formal-structural function as a means of completing the artistic narrative. All types of myth, whether ancient or modern, serve as an ideological fabric built on collective emotions and feelings, intricately intertwined in the consciousness, forming a complex, multilayered system by their nature. Myth, 136 being a product of imagination, enters the artistic structure as a precedent text, reflecting the originality of the author's thought and the original world and conceptual system that is uniquely manifested in a work of art. By building his artistic world on mythological foundations and intertwining mythological sources with artistic structure and generalizations, the author transforms myth. As a result, within ideological and psychological interpretation of myth, an artistic structure emerges with its unique expressive, linguistic, structural, and semantic features.
