The main aim of the article is to discuss the reflection of ideas of psychoanalysis in Lithuanian modernistic novel. The method of the work is historic-comparative; psychoanalytic literature criticism and G. Genette’s narratology are used. Modernistic novels of interwar Lithuania, soviet times, exodus are analyzed.
In the context of modernistic novel of interwar Lithuania only two works may be distinguished: 1) the unfinished novel “Svetimos kaltës” (1928) by V. Mykolaitis-Putinas, which may be called the first attempt to create a psychoanalytical novel; 2) S. Leksaitis’ novel “Spûdai”, which can be justly given the term of psychoanalytical novel.
The method of social realism determined appearance not of the psyche of an individual, but of analysis of the effect of the social and ideological environment on the character in the centre of the so-called “inner monologue”. The inner monologue technique was used for this purpose in the works of Alf. Bieliauskas, J. Mikelinskas and M. Sluckis.
Psychoanalytical ideas (“stream of consciousness” technique, complexes, archetypes) gained the most adequate expression in the works of exodus novelists. Novels of A. Landsbergis, A. Škëma, V. Janavièius, J. Jankus testify to it. Reflection of psychoanalytical ideas in Lithuanian modernistic novel was not timely. It stopped in soviet Lithuania, and its belated revival is related not so much with the exodus novel as with the last decades of the 20th century.
