The article examines the gnoseological and ontological dualism of Lesia
Ukrainka’s drama‑fairy tale The Forest Song (Лісова пісня) as a way of expressing the writer’s
rational‑intuitive cognition of the world. The gnoseological dualism is expressed in the
combination of intuitive and transcendent knowledge of the world with a practical, rational
approach to the formal side of The Forest Song. This vision reflected the main ideological and
intellectual movements of the time that influenced Lesya Ukrainka. The ontological dualism is
connected with the dialectic of the civilized (profane) and natural (sacred) worlds, which are
interconnected with each other on the basis of harmony and order. In the text, Lesya Ukrainka
prefers the natural world, which prevails over the material values of civilization. The
researchers suggest that such a philosophical and ideological component of the text is
connected with the writer’s biography, in particular her correspondence with intellectuals and
writers of that time.
