This article conveys J. Donn’s poetry from the point of
view of archetype “Height”, namely the Sun. The Sun
as an object of the material world, always attracts
people’s attention. At all times it has energy and
power, tenderness and endearment. The Sun has been
in the focus of interest both for primitive men and our
contemporaries. The Sun is depicted in literature,
works of art, folklore, architecture. In the poems by J.
Donn the Sun is personificated, the author gives Him
human beings’ features, the hero is equal to Him, he
asks the Sun questions and even tries to reign over
Him. The Sun rays can be compared with passion, high
feelings, gladness; love is associated with sunrise,
zenith and sunset. Partly this article compares barocco
and modern literature. The archetype “Height” is
connected with the Sun image in the Medieval
literature. So, it may be concluded that the Sun, its
image and archetype is the key point of J. Donn’s
creative work
In this article, the mythological archetype of Mountain
is depicted in the interpretation of peoples of different
epochs. The comparative analysis of archetype of
Height, namely the Mountain in the R.L. Stevenson
and R. Burns creative work is carried out. The
archetype of Mountain has power and authority; it is
changeable, bright and fully depicts the archetype of
Height. Mountain is the abode of silence, modest
witness, symbol reflects the desire of a man to reach
height and hover over the earth. The archetype of
mountain is versatile, unsteady, authors transform it,
but in all cases, it accumulates the great power of
energy, strength, it reflects fear and veneration.
Moreover, the archetype of Mountain has all the
indications of ambivalence. The examined
mythologem is analyzed in Russian tales. The folklore
creativity can reflect, probably, more widely the idea
of archetype because legends, tales, heroic epics
during time were modified and changed but the main
concept often remained authentic. The analyzed
symbol is in the title of the tale – “Cristal Mountain”.
It means that symbol in the title of the article is
archetypical
