description Background. The works of the modern Austrian writer, winner of the 2004 Nobel Prize in Literature, Elfriede Jelinek, has been widely studied in domestic and foreign literary studies. However, the author is known not only as a talented novelist and playwright, but also as a public figure who always openly expresses his own point of view on topical and controversial issues and events of today's era. The rebellious nature of E. Jelinek does not allow her to remain at the level of describing existing flaws and vices exclusively in literary texts. Since the 70s and up to the present, she has been actively criticizing the values existing in society on the radio, writing radio plays, in which she expresses her active civic position. Purpose. To analyze the most famous radio plays by E. Elinek of the early period and highlight their main themes and stylistic features of the text, allowing to realize the intention of the author. Materials and methods. The main research methods are the analysis of scientific literature by Russian and foreign scientists investigating the peculiarities of the artistic world of E. Jelinek, contextual analysis of continuous sampling, analysis of text fragments of radio plays. Research results. In the course of the study, radio plays from 1972-78 were analyzed. The main themes are the destruction of myths of modern society, formed by mass culture, social and gender inequality in society and the oppression of women. In the plays, Jelinek uses collage-editing and inset techniques, wordplay, transformed quotes to create irony and absurdity of everyday situations. Despite the fact that the work of E. Jelinek has been widely studied by literary critics around the world for more than fifty years, early radio plays without a printed version clearly do not have such potential due to the fact that they have not been translated into foreign languages and are closely linked to the cultural and social context of Austria in the 1970s. Practical implications. The results obtained can be used in the study of E. Jelinek's work, when reading Austrian fiction for its deeper interpretation, as well as when teaching students German as a foreign language.
