Abstract

The paper considers the formation conditions and the specificity of manifestation of cultural archetypes of the Russian people and their influence on the current reality. The author highlights the national features, the essential values, and problem areas of the cultural archetypes. The emphasis is placed on logocentrism as an archetypal trait, understood as a desire for the essential, authentic, and sacral. This concept reveals such basic values as the desire for truth and justice, the idea of messianism and salvation. It is noted that such archetypal landmarks form one of the most important contradictions of the Russian mentality – the dominance of internal over external. The research methodology includes the historical and sociocultural approaches. There are also applied the methods of analysis, synthesis, analogy, generalization, comparison, and systematization.
