| Description | In his famous article “Objective and Normative Point of View on Language” written exactly one hundred years ago, A. M. Peshkovsky notes the “striking conservatism” of the “literary language ideal”, which manifests itself, on the one hand, in the orientation on existing precedents, on the speech of older generations and previous literary schools, and, on the other hand, on the Moscow norm. Peshkovsky’s further reasoning confirms the thesis of Professor Peter Deutschmann in his plenary talk at the 26th Olomouc Days of Russian Studies conference: The idea of a literary norm in the case of the Russian language is closely linked to the idea of national and state unity. In order to check to what extent this connection was a commonplace for educated native speakers of the first quarter of the 20th century, we turned to the documentary and journalistic literature of that time and studied the meta-linguistic statements found in these texts. The focus of our attention was on the nature of the speech facts evaluations and their criteria. |
