Abstract

The article studies the perception of Poles by Russians in the ethnocultural border zone in different historical periods, which was reflected in folklore texts. Over the centuries-old history of Polish-Russian relations, a fairly stable negative stereotype of the Pole has formed, supported by the memory of military conflicts and stabilized in the texts of legends. At the same time, there was a tendency in the “mass” consciousness to learn the truth about another culture and overcome its negative perception. The development of this tendency resulted in the transformation of the national stereotype of the Pole (from “alien” to “other”).
