ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HISTORICAL MEMORY AND THE INTERNAL PROPERTIES OF THE HERO'S PERSONALITY IN TOLGUROV'S PROSE
At all times, memory is such an original, natural code of perception of reality, history, future, that it is rarely realized by analyzing consciousness. In the broadest sense, memory is a common category that defines what remains of the past, a kind of «database» of past experience and information. At the same time, it is not only a «passive repository of constant information» but also a generating, creative mechanism for its preservation. This is clearly a very general definition that needs to be clarified in each particular study. Analysis of the difficult relationship between historical memory and the internal characteristics of the characters' personality is one of the characteristic features of prose of Tolgurov. Memory allows his heroes to preserve the human nature, to preserve their connection with their native land, with the traditions of ancestors, which are the guarantor of the existence of personality in the flow of history. The writer inherits here the experience of world and Russian humanistic thought, philosophical and literary focus on the cornerstone.
