Abstract
The features of the lyrical hero-traveler in modern Ukrainian poetry are investigated in the article. His distinction from the traditional image of the traveler, formed in Ukrainian literary travels, is traced. The basic types of poetic homo viator and its psychological features are determined as well. The character’s open mindedness to the new imagological impressions is emphasized and the specificity of his national identity is indicated.
