Abstract

Deconstruction of the Soviet in paraphrases of precedent cultural signs is for the first time considered from a socio-philosophical position: the socio-cultural and socio-psychological reasons for this phenomenon are analyzed, and its influence on the reception of the Soviet theme by modern public consciousness is theorized. It has been established that the tendency of ironic paraphrasing of Soviet precedents is predetermined by the morphology of Soviet culture and by a number of factors associated with the properties of social psychology as well. The author points out that paraphrases are capable of creating an alternative thesaurus of Soviet culture and broadcasting specific values.
