Abstract
- This article deals with two young female poets from Ukraine: Bohdana Matijas from Kiev writes in Ukranian, while Elena Zaslavskaja from the eastern Ukranian city of Luhansk writes her poems in Russian. Both have won several awards and presented some of their poems in Berlin in 2009. After a short context has been outlined, some poems by both Matijas and Zaslavskaja will be analysed. The main thesis in this text is that behind obvious differences in style both poets encode male figures as ambivalent Others in their work. Analysis of the communication structure between the various lyrical speakers and their adressees reveals specific strategies for dealing with female roles in Post-Soviet Ukraine.
