description | The celebration of the October Revolution in the late Soviet period (1968–1984) is
explored in this article. The empirical ground of the research is based on materials
from the Tomsk periodical press. The theoretical foundations fit into the framework
of the historiographic discussion between Aleksey Yurchak (the concept of the
perfomative shift of ideological discourse) and Caroline Humphrey (the idea
of a «creative» initiative based on the mimesis strategy). The holiday context is
studied through the triad «structure–hyperstructure–anti-structure», which explains
the stages of the celebration that existed during the researching period. The
author poses the problem of the logic of constructing and reproducing the basic
mechanisms of celebratory action on local material. Actualization of the research is
considered through the situation of the modern status of commemorative spaces
of «trauma» and «nostalgia» regarding the events of the October Revolution. The
main research conclusions are related to determining the boundaries of the triad of
celebratory actions and utterances under consideration. According to the source
material, the combination of mechanisms for the implementation of hyperstructure
and anti-structure of the celebration of the October Revolution Day reproduced the
basis of the celebration — «structure» (which, by definition, should be a reflection
of Soviet reality itself). So, the late Soviet celebration of the October Revolution did
not reflect the principles of the classical «ritual process» (according to V. Turner) |
