Роль китайских пушкинистов в популяризации русской литературы в культурном континууме КНР

Abstract

The aim of the study is to assess the scale of research and educational activities of Chinese scientists, whose focus is Russian literature, namely the work of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. To do this, the authors of the article identify and systematize the scientific works of Chinese scientists using the information capabilities of the scientific platform CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure, “Zhongguo Zhiwan” – hereinafter Zhiwan). Various scientific materials are posted here, including those that provide an opportunity to get acquainted with the most popular works of Chinese Pushkin scholars. An analysis of the entire volume of publications on this site made it possible to highlight the names of outstanding Chinese scientists who devoted their lives to the study and popularization of Russian culture and literature among their com-patriots. The characteristic features of the activities of Chinese Russian scholars are highlighted and described. The authors identified and systematized, according to the degree of publication activity, Chinese printed publications that posted materials on the Zhiwan website that, to one degree or another, related to the study of the works of the great Russian poet and prose writer. Particular attention is paid to the systematization of monographs and articles not only by philologists, but also by representatives of other scientific fields. The authors presented a brief description of public events (conferences, competitions, etc.) held in China by scientific and educational institutions to popularize Russian spiritual culture. The research results reflected in the reports of Chinese Pushkin scholars can be found on the Zhiwan website. The methodological basis is the dialectical method of scientific knowledge, which made it possible to trace the continuity of the scientific research of Chinese Pushkinists. The systematic method revealed the wide capabilities of the CNKI scientific platform. The statistical method for identifying and processing textual information provided a quantitative description of the scale and depth of the study of Russian literature abroad. Thanks to the analytical-synthetic method, not only was a database of scientific works created by Chinese researchers of the life and work of A.S. Pushkin, but also their role in the popularization of Russian culture in China was revealed. The conducted research is interdisciplinary in nature and may be in demand by domestic and Chinese Pushkin scholars (philologists, historians, cultural experts, specialists in the field of art history).
