Abstract

The article analyzes cases of “everyday” words functioning as political terms. Data for his study he takes from panegyrical Russian literature in Peter the Great’s epoch. It is shown in this article that authors of panegyrical school dramas and sermons used words “envy” and “pride” to denote hostile to Russia nations.
