The discourse involves a number of prominent thinkers who express their opinions in quality newspapers and magazines. The concept of Polish national character consists mainly of historical myths, and the dramatically transforming Russian character is to a great extent an absolute rejection of the Sowiet past and an equally approval of the Tsar period.In her analysis, the author identifies the characteristic features of both Polish and Russian national character. The issue can be perceived as a proof of seeking the national identity but also as some camouflage supposed to divert attention from real social problems.
The paper deals with the critical analysis of the Russian linguistic culturology based on the idea that the national language is the source of data on Culture and of thin “mentality” of the people speaking this language. Here many possibilities for the scientific research of different connections between “culture” and “language” are proposed. These “links” should be regarded in the discourse with the consideration of its historical and social aspects, and not in the “language” as a system of words.
