Chesnov, Y. V. Existentials: the city
Abstract:
the article views the city life-style from the point of view of Arnold Toibi’s challenge-response theory. The author stresses out that in this respect, the city is viewed as an exposition where a human must be creative and orient. The author shows that the “rural” mentality is mythologically bound to such an exposition creating the image of “my city”. The article is based on diverse historical data and the author’s researches in Moscow, Moscow region, St. Petersburg, Obninsk and Borovsk (the Kaluga Region).
Keywords:
existential, the city, rural revolution, cult of body, elite nature, passionarity, idleness, htonism, myth, “my city”.
