Новые референции концепта «земля» в русской литературе революционных лет (1917–1920-е)

The paper demonstrates the change in the topic of Russian literature under the pressure of revolutionary events in Russia from 1917 to 1921. The author considers the gap between the concepts of “land” and “people”, traditionally indivisible in the Russian linguistic image of the world. On the one hand, the “motherland” plays a redemptive role in relation to the people betrayed by her, on the other, being ready to take them into her space, she is more worthy than her people. Historical and biblical analogies are also given in the paper. The author traces the deconstruction of the concept “people” in Russian literature in the 20th century and at the turn of the 20th and the 21st century. She determines the connection of this process not only to the unique history of 20th-century Russia but also to the worldwide globalization process and notes the apparent weakening of the traditional relationship between “lands” and their people. The author analyzes the works written by D. Merezhkovsky, S. Bulgakov, M. Prishvin, A. Remizov, S. Durylin, and M. Voloshin between 1917 and 1920. She uses historical-typological and hermeneutical methods and also conceptual and mythopoetic approaches in her paper
