THE CONFLICT AND CONSENT WITH THE POWER IN THE POLITICAL DISCOURSE OF THE NAIVE AUTHOR

Abstract

This article analyzes the socio-political views of the specific naive author (a woman of 75 years, secondary education, working profession), which are presented in a hand-written format. The certain basic attitudes, which are characteristic for everyday consciousness of this kind of author, are also revealed. They are: People and power ("Tsar is good and boyars are bad"); Russia is in trouble (it is realized in topics: collapse of the USSR, glorious past is forgotten, enemies are around, dominance of emigrants, deplorable condition of village, ex-scientists and militaries became downand-outs); Pride in the country and belief in its rescue. The basic attitudes, which are allocated in the article, reflect a certain layer of the national socio-political everyday consciousness, which is especially fully embodied in the older generation, which was formed in the Soviet period. Such basic attitudes take their beginning from far away. They got in the deep layers of consciousness or maybe sub-consciousness. They have features of archetypes, do not disappear completely and are reflected in different behavioral forms, including the written-speech activities. The presented material can be interesting not only to philologists, but also to related scientific subjects such as sociologists, historians, philosophers and psychologists.
