Abstract:
The problem raised in the article has always been important and topical as people always wanted to become demiurges, creators, to be just like gods. The first embodiment of this desire in literature was the mythical Pygmalion. But the sculptor in that myth created only a marble shell. The origin of life was a mystery to the ancient Greeks, which only gods possessed, so they (gods) breathed life into the artist's creation. The theme of creation can be found in folk and literary tales. The pantheistic worldview and the sense of energy in each piece of nature determine that human imagination does not search for reasons why the creatures of snow, flour, wood, etc. come to life as if by themselves.
