Summary/Abstract: On the basis of studies of regularly supplemented archives of peasant family stories, audio records, as well as additional materials collected by performers in different comers of rural Russia a fundamental two-staged research task will be implemented - the first task is to fonn an interdisciplinary scientific idea concerning essential features of peasants' discourses, and the second task is to see the forms and directions of their historical changes. “The discourse in time” - that is the shortest formulation aimed at the analysis of prerequisites (social, cultural, historical) which determine the mechanisms and forms of evolution of the folk language viewed in a sociolinguistic projection. The core of the research is formed by a multidimensional study of the so-called “voices from the underground” - peasants’ narratives regularly recorded by performers for more than 20 years.
