Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to define the concept of text-shaped universals in the works of the Ukrainian national heroic epic. The text-shaped universals are analyzed to determine the relationship between them and the formulas and different text components. The author considers the texts and imaginative universals as a system and as a linguistic model. She looks at them, trying to determine what the building blocks of text-shaped structures and what the essential features of the analyzed structures are like. She analyzes the function of folk improvisation understood as a verbally-shaped folk instrument of communication.
