Abstract<\/strong>
\nThe article traces how, within the discourse of war, the reinterpretation of Shevchenko\u2019s precedent utterances, canonical quotations, and aphorisms constituting the foundation of the national poetic canon takes place. It is argued that, under conditions of existential threat, these expressions have become a relevant resource for processing the psychological trauma of war, articulating the language of resistance, and fostering moral mobilization, while, in a broader sense, they also serve as a means of rethinking historical experience and shaping Ukrainians\u2019 new collective memory. The study demonstrates that the linguo-mental and evaluative renewal of Shevchenko\u2019s word transforms the key profiles of the national linguistic worldview.
\nThe article shows that Shevchenko\u2019s texts function as highly active instruments for the contemporary experience of war and as effective linguistic units of resistance. Their receptive renewal primarily involves a change in the perspective of perception and communicative status. This process entails their repragmatization and the acquisition of the status of mobilizational formulas within national linguistic practice. During the war, Shevchenko\u2019s utterances have undergone substantial functional and receptive transformation. They have ceased to be elements of ritualized citation and have instead become active linguistic units of resistance.
\nThe receptive renewal of Shevchenko\u2019s quotation in wartime is associated with the dehistoricization of distance (the quotation ceases to function as a \u201ctext of the nineteenth century\u201d and instead operates as a unit of the language of the present), repragmatization (the poetic formula becomes a direct instruction for the present, no longer merely describing struggle but calling for it), and decolonial interpretation (the precedent imperial context of Shevchenko\u2019s oeuvre is projected onto the contemporary Russian-Ukrainian war, creating the effect of historical continuity of resistance). In wartime, Shevchenko\u2019s quotations function not only as carriers of emotional intelligence and linguistic-cultural memory, but above all as linguistic units of resistance that glorify struggle and shape a sense of historical continuity.
