Features of Semantic Translation of Collective Historical Memory

Abstract

The article is devoted to the methodological problem of the interaction of individual and collective in the phenomenon of historical memory. The identification of specific features of collective memory, the nature and dynamics of collective memories allows, on the one hand, to conceptualize collective memory, to substantiate its ontological status, on the other, to reveal the features of the mechanisms of collective memories. The article analyzes such features of collective memory as conventionality, tradition, repeatability, selectivity, etc. The thesis about the ambivalent nature of collective historical memory as a process is defended.
