Пушкинский миф в фольклоре рунета: биографический аспект

Abstract

The article is the first one from the cycle of works on the analysis of representation of the Pushkin’s myth in Russian internet folklore and highlights its biographical component. According to the research, Russian-speaking segments of the Internet represents Pushkin’s mythologemes that are already rooted in the native culture: African’s descendant; the first Russian lyceum student; Pushkin and nanny; loving person; autumn in Boldino; Pushkin and Natali; Pushkin the duelist; the last duel (Pushkin and Dantes). Their representatives are creolized texts, internet presentemes, memes, motivators, demotivators, internet jokes, pirozhki verses. Overall, Pushkin’s mythologemes represented in the Russian Internet are correlated with biographical facts and repeat the similar stereotypes of the mass culture consciousness. Comparison with the results of the current opinion poll proves that the Internet myth about Pushkin is more accurate than its “philistine” version.
