Abstract

The article deals with the studying of the phenomenon of scriptorium in contemporary literary criticism, which is the evidence of rehabilitation of author in post-structuralism. The analysis of theoretical concepts of grammartology is grounded in the writings of J. Gelb, J. Derrida, M. Epstein etc. The main object of study is «Synopsis», a book of contemporary Ukrainian writer Petro Kraliuk consisting of six separate works. This collection offers the art studies of the events that have become central in the past of Ukraine and has
