JEwish theater as a microdynamic model national culture: the paradigm of research

Abstract

The research is aimed at outlining some of the problems of creating a universal model of national theater (for example, the existence of Jewish theater), for the purpose of further research in the field of national minority theater arts. The methodology of the study consists of a comprehensive study of the phenomenon of Jewish theater, which led to the choice of both traditional paradigms of culture (anthropological and symbolic-symbolic paradigm), and specific (psychological paradigm, paradigm of everyday life). By the methods of research in the study of Jewish national culture in general, and theatrical separately, we chose the biographical and interview method, historical and comparative, the method of modeling (to identify the forms of translation and continuity of Jewish theater, to develop a conditional model of national Jewish theater). The scientific novelty is that for the first time: typological differences between Jewish theater and other national theaters have been identified; the functioning of Jewish theater in the context of Ukrainian culture through the interplay of Jewish and Ukrainian theater arts; Jewish theater is presented as a moderator of Odessa city culture.
