Abstract

The proposed study examines the antithetical worldview of the Ukrainian and Moscow-imperial mentalities, which is manifested in the “Diaries” of Sergei Efremov and Korniy Chukovsky and other objectively unbiased sources. In particular, a number of moral and ethical, socio-psychological constants found in various life situations by the authors of these sources are studied. Forms of their presence in diary prose as documentary evidence of the era of direct participants in the events are outlined and analyzed. It is determined that the “Diaries” of S. Efremov and Korniy Chukovsky, as well as “The Cursed Days” by I. Bunin and other sources, not only constitute a still unexplored basis for understanding the era, but also have significant potential for modern and future comparative philosophical and Ukrainian studies in the specified problem-thematic discourse. In view of this, a number of conceptual parallels were drawn between the worldviews of artists-thinkers who created in Russian, but whose worldview was in the value-semantic paradigm of Ukrainian Christocentric thinking. Based on analytical considerations, it was determined that the worldview concepts of the Ukrainian Christocentric-Christ-inheriting farming worldview are completely opposite to the worldview and the resulting aggressive-aggressive, cunning non-Asian custom, the basis of which, according to its representatives, is cynicism.
