Аксиология мечты в обско-угорской литературе

Abstract

The article analyzes the peculiarity of the Ob-Ugric literature in the axiological aspect. This approach allows us to draw reasonable conclusions about the peculiarities of the worldview of the Northern peoples. It is possible to achieve this result by an appeal to the analysis of both – a single artistic work and a corpus of feature texts. The purpose of the article is to identify the uniqueness of the comprehension of the world by the peoples of Khanty and Mansi, their attitude to the values of the surrounding world, those, reflected in works of fiction. The essence of the article focuses on analyzing the existence of dreams in literature of the Ob-Ugric peoples in its axiological aspect, on showing the diversity of the presence and manifestations of dreams in the artistic consciousness of the peoples of Khanty and Mansi, on clarifying the question about the role of dream in their beliefs about past, present and future, about the meaning of life. The author of the article refers to the semantic analysis potential, seeking to identify the nature and role of such a sign as a dream in a specific artistic text. The reference to the texts of the Ob-Ugric literature, which can be defined as representative, shows that the dream is present in the artistic consciousness of the Northern peoples in a variety of manifestations: from mythological representations and heroes to everyday, related to the needs of real life, affairs and aspirations, and this is characteristic of both – the epic and the lyric texts. The conducted study suggests the conclusions that the dream as one of the manifestations of the individual and collective worldviews of the Khanty and Mansi peoples is evidence of their trust in metaphor, a propensity to metaphorical thinking, which, in its turn, is an indicator of the significant potential and richness of the aesthetic and artistic consciousness of these peoples.
