The metaphysical of Stepan Protsyuk’s fiction is primarily manifested by the existential states, when the person opens the “supersensual”, “divine being”. Consequently, the main points of metaphysical model of artist’s biografy features the existential states of Stefanyk’s life in it’s most intense moments. The depth of Stefanyk’s psychology is closely connected to the transcendental sphere that forms the metaphysical horizon of the novel.
