Abstract |
The paper analyzes the interaction of local and alien peoples in Primorye at the stage of its development by Slavic settlers from the point of view of spiritual and moral foundations and values. Owing to the great temporal separation of the period under study from the present and the impossibility of the searching for informants, the novels by I.U. Basargin, which are distinguished by documentary accuracy of description, historicity and covering a large time period — from the first settlers to the end of the Civil War came to be the study`s subject matter. Information about interethnic relations and spiritual and moral values was revealed in literary works and compared with the already available scientific materials. The dynamics of spiritual and moral values is analyzed on the basis of M. Scheler's concept of Ordo Amoris, a certain moral formula of a person, in accordance with which relations between values are built in the inner world of a particular moral subject. The study shows that the contacts of the newcomer Slavic peoples, namely the Russian Old Believers, with the natives and the Chinese, took place, on the whole, peacefully, thanks to the firm adherence of the settlers to universal human values. The Ordo Amoris community had become a guarantee of good neighborliness and mutual assistance, while its violation — the promotion of personal enrichment and power — led to crimes, violation of moral principles, and the destruction of peaceful coexistence. |
