Linguoideologeme "People" Reflected in Russian Poetry
Verbalization of the linguoideologeme “people” in the Russian poetic texts is studied. The article covers peculiarities of using lexical-semantic variants of the polysemantic word narod (“people”) in speech in order to identify their axiological specificity and metaphoric characteristics basing on the analysis of the lexeme’s attributive compatibility and categorial juxtaposition. It is stated that the people is presented in the poetry as a reflexive child of its motherland, as a collective personality of an ambiguous nature. The author comes to the conclusion that the view on the “people itself” – as something that is left from the nation after taking the “elite” out of it – depends on the “subjective positioning” of the poetic text’s author.
