| Summary: | The aim of the article is to substantiate the methodological guideline of using psychoanalytic
interpretation in the research strategy of modern Ukrainian non-institutional military discourse on
the Internet communication. Materials & methods. General scientific research methods: analysis,
classification, systematization, explanation were used to achieve the goal. Results and discussions. The
use of psychoanalytic interpretation as a scientific method of psychoanalysis becomes crucial for the study
of Ukrainian non-institutional military discourse. Psychoanalytic interpretation focuses on accentuation
of senses and the assumption of self-sufficiency experience. Psychoanalytic interpretation includes two
stages: understanding and explanation. Understanding involves the researcher’s ability to understand
the individual (group) socio-psychological characteristics and requires knowledge of the service condition
features, which are military-related for these group members. On the second stage (the explanation of
understanding) planned or committed actions are considered in the perspective of causality, i. e. they
are analyzed through the prism of motivation. An explanation is considered to be correct if the reasons
(incentives) emphasized in the explanation not only existed, but were also productive. Moreover, the
explanation is not just a formal (mechanical) process of finding motivation, but also includes assessment.
Possible presentation of Ukrainian non-institutional military discourse in the Internet communication
in the form of stories, descriptions, reflections, digressions characterized by expressive composition as
well as in the form of military poetry of the participants of Joint Forces operation, requires recourse to
psychoanalytic literary studies. In this case, psychoanalysis focuses on the symbolism of the unconscious,
universal meanings and the psychological mechanisms manifestation that are important material for the
study. Conclusions. Formed by a combination of different types of discourses modern Ukrainian noninstitutional military discourse needs a special methodological tool for its analysis. The research task success
significantly depends on the correct choice of methods. The emphasis on the psychological features of the
speaker, i.e. the inclusion of a wide range of factors: psychological, mental, pragmatic etc. in the linguistic
personality analysis requires the use in the research strategy of psychoanalytic interpretation as a scientific
method of psychoanalysis. |
