I.A. BUNIN''S JOURNALISM OF THE 1920S: THEMATIC COMPONENTS OF THE PROBLEM SPACE
Thematic components of journalism of I.A. Bunin of the 1920s are considered in article. It is emphasized that the first decade of emigration of the writer was connected with some recession of its art activity and strengthening publicistic. In many respects it is explained by that emotional heat with which the writer created works for periodicals, understanding that his word will be heard by the widest audience. The scope of publicistic performances of Bunin in the 1920s is to some extent traditional. The artist earlier showed attention to the questions of literature and history of Russia, but now the problem orientation of his judgments essentially changes. All space of publicistic texts is under construction about the revolution of 1917, its leaders and inspirers which the writer considers the Soviet literature and the press. The position of rejection of "Lenin grad", aspiration to show revolution as the greatest tragedy of the present, and socialist transformations - as "acting" becomes the main approach to the events assessment in the Soviet Union. Reality also well matches the "verbal" atmosphere filled with falsity, irrepressible pathos. Bunin emphasizes the "great dope" of the Soviet ideology extended by literature and the press, urges cultural figures of emigration, the whole world to struggle with this evil. For himself he chooses the principles to which he abides for many years: to constantly protect universal values of life, to work from the positions of the person as God's creation, to act on behalf of former (original) Russia. They define the general format of his publicistic performances: the thematic constancy turning with variations from one work into other, problem pointedness, maintenance of own reflections as examples from life and historical experience of last years, information from the Soviet and foreign newspapers, quotes from works of modern writers and classics of domestic literature. However open expression of the author's position based on monarchic beliefs and Christian moral become the most valuable in Bunin's journalism.
