Abstract

The article deals with the problem of language in the press of the Russophile movement, which has been gaining anti-Ukrainian character since the beginning of the 20th century. Particular attention is paid to the actual concepts that are currently actively used by Russian propaganda. The notion of language moves from the plane of communication to the plane of political expediency and the unifying factor with Russia.

The task of this work is to point out the structural key points that actualize this problem; to study the features of the presentation of the speech topic in the Russophile press; to highlight the journalistic discourse around this topic of those who did not perceive the ideas of Russophile movement. Research methods – problematic and thematic method applied at all stages of the study; the historical method of research gives us an opportunity to show the historical precondition of the publications and works of the ideologues of the Muscophile movement and their opponents on the language problem; bibliographic-descriptive method used at the stage of the choice of editions that we studied in the context of studying the language problem; comparative-analytical test for the study of the ideological and conceptual foundations of the Russophile press, which concerned language problems.The problem of this research has a deep modern undertone, because attention is paid to such fundamental ideas, which today are actively cultivated by Russian propaganda, that today are actively cultivated by Russian propaganda – the basic guarantee of the «russian people» trinity is the Russian language; the presence of the Russian language on the communicative map of Eastern Galicia will mean the presence of «Russians» here; the denial of the Ukrainian language existence legalizes the idea of the Russian language as a general Slavic, and others.Key words: Russophile press, language problem, anti-Ukrainian politics. ; У статті досліджено проблему мови у пресі москвофільського руху, який вже від початку ХХ століття набирав антиукраїнського характеру.
