Literary myth and journalistic logos: from contrast to integration

Abstract

The relevance of the study of productive and creative exchange between literature and journalism is determined by the problematic relation between the two paradigms of the interpretation of reality. The paper covers the opposition and diffusion of literature and journalism. With polarising initiatives, these forms of verbal interpretation of reality have achieved the synergistic effect of their creative integration during their long genesis. The purpose of the study is to identify the conditions for achieving a fruitful synthesis of literary cyclicality and journalistic linearity, which achieves a synergistic effect. Furthermore, the purpose of the study is to clarify the contrast between the cyclicality of the literary image and the linearity of journalistic fact, which underlie the correlation between fiction and non-fiction. The methodological framework of the research includes the principles of historicism, objectivity, consistency, concreteness, methods of source analysis, methods of historical deduction and induction. Based on the results of the study, new scientific data were obtained on the historical specifics of the mutual influence of fine literature on public logos and the reverse interaction of journalistic topicality on the literary canon. The conclusions of the research can be used in the development of new humanitarian solutions in effective dialogue between artistic and literary fiction and actual journalistic factuality.
