Soviet power symbols in the works of philosophers of the Russian emigres

Abstract

The article is dedicated to the analysis and understanding the emergence of new power symbols in the writings of philosophers of the Russian emigres after the october revolution. In the period from 1917 to 1929 there was a change of paradigms and the transition from pre-revolutionary consciousness to revolutionary. While abroad, philosophers of the Russian emigres could speak openly about the new world, and also tried to preserve the cultural heritage of Russia. In their works, they not only describe the events that took place in the period from 1917 to 1929, but also what consequences the revolutionary results had for Russia. Entering a debate with the government, Russian philosophers tried to expose the true motives for introduction of the official and unofficial symbols: how symbols and to show the emergence of symbols of post-revolutionary culture, reflecting the interests and values of the new ideology, and the mechanism for reading and interpreting same symbols by the power and philosophers of the Russian emigres. The arrival of the new government, marked not only changes in the visual and symbolic culture, a new turn in self-awareness in the culture of the 20th century, but also the construction of a new world.
