Еврейские темы Василия Гроссмана (В городе Бердичеве, 1934 г.)
The jewish themes by Vasily Grossman (in the town of Berdichev, 1934)

Summary/Abstract: The prewar short story by Vasily Grossman is the starting point for emerging and determining theparameters as well as hierarchically well-ordered elements which due to their specificity should be interpretedas the typical ones for the Jewish community. This community existed in the time of the Polish-Bolshevik Warand during the civil war and afterwards. The time (the era) is very essential in the story as the everyday life ofthe Jewish community in the Ukraine. The scheme of the literary work is very specific as it shows the nuancesof the Jewish-Russian spoken language, the attitude of the community members towards the large offspring,family as well as the heart of home. The aforesaid story also describes the typical situations and places such asthe street, the market-square, and a noisy street crowd. In the course of the story the examples of the Jewishbehaviour are described as they are being emerged. These examples are not of accidental character and at thesame time they present identificational/iconic features. These features are classified into the topical parametersand they also create the modelling system which is the key point. This system is presented in the semantic unitswhich are similar to the conceptual “utterances”, which are the projections of the knowledge of their nature.
