Composition and meaning: to the exegesis of the RÌ¥V X.129
Siarhei Sańko
The compositional analysis of the cosmogonic hymn (RÌ¥V X.129), based on the discovering of such complex figures as chiasma, combined with the figure hysteron proteron, allows to reveal behind the surface structure of the text (which provoked the conclusion on the agnostic, skeptical or atheistic bias of the poem) some hidden text in which the composer sought to match antithetically two gnoseological positions, two theories of the origin of the universe, and apophatic and kataphatic versions of cosmogony, probably influential in his time.
