THE REFLECTION OF CONFESSIONAL DISCOURSE IN OLD BELIEVERS’ DIARIES
The genre and content originality of two Old believers' diaries for 1915–1923 and 1956–1975 years are considered in this work. These diaries were written by the members of one of Tomsk North communities. The confessional discourse reflection in the very utility texts with weather and Old believers' everyday life description is shown by these diaries material. The mentioned property of these texts is partly ensured by the traditional type genre (a kind of memorials), produced by ancient culture environment, its pragmatic, external to the text attributes: graphic, original calendar and etc. Old Belief ideas aren't declared directly, but keen self-consciousness of community writers is reflected in everyday content texts which show the God's earth harmony and the patriarchal life as the only true one.
