модель ідентичності Е.Х. Еріксона у проєкції на життєпис
і становлення україноцентричного світогляду Агатангела
Кримського: входження в українську словесну культуру, формування світоглядних домінант, поліфонічність особистості,
обставини життя і творчої діяльності та їхній вплив на особистість, діяльність як форма реалізації особистості в соціумі. Стверджено, що мова є одним із домінантних критеріїв ідентичності в комунікативній діяльності людини.
The article is devoted to the analysis of the criteria of national
identity of the language personality. E.H. Erickson’s research
model of identity is substantiated in the projection on the biography
and formation of the Ukrainian-centric worldview of Ahatanhel
Krymskyi: entry into Ukrainian verbal culture, formation of
worldview dominants, polyphony of personality, circumstances
of life and creative activity and their influence on personality. It
is argued that language is one of the dominant criteria of identity
realized in human activity.
The projection of identification criteria E.Kh. Erickson on the
linguistic personality of A. Krymskyi’s includes an analysis of the
methods formed by scientists to study the material. The principles
of scientific interpretation acquired at the Lazarev Institute include
different perspectives – research and educational, which complement
the argument. A. Krymskyi’s Eastern studies deepen scientific
observations also in the aspect of translated representations of
texts. The encyclopedic personality is harmonized in this case with
incredible efficiency. A feature, however, characteristic of ascetic
scientists of the Ukrainian Renaissance.
The author came to the conclusion that the dramatic collisions
of A. Krymskyi’s creative and personal life, his service to the
Ukrainian cause, his conscious choice of life line, determination
of priorities allow to develop the criteria of E.Kh. Erickson in the
Ukrainian reality. The language, forms of its life and development –
a possible, but not the only criterion for identification. Acquired,
recognized, rooted in human consciousness, language can become
a behavioral, value, worldview of the individual, motivating his
activities. However, it is activity that harmonizes the spiritual and
natural worlds of man, his existential choice of identification in
space and time.
