Displaying of Ideological Dogmas Textbooks on Romanian, Published in the USSR between 1930–1989

Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the content of texts and examples to Romanian grammar’s rules, which are available in Romanian language textbooks (partly in bilingual Russian-Romanian dictionaries, Russian-Romanian phrasebook) published in the former Soviet Union between 1930–1989. It is proved that they are all filled with the dominant Soviet Communist ideology, which has its shades depending on the year of the emergence of academic publications.In the first Russian textbook of Romanian language written by Lev Spanier and Heinz Kagan (1930) there are such examples of illustrative material to the rules of Romanian grammar: Friedrich Engels was a great man, our goal is world revolution, the Red Army does not drink alcohol, class consciousness should be in every proletarian and etc., which vividly reflect the dominant ideology of world revolution in the 1920s in the USSR. There are samples of Romanian military equipment and aircraft in Russian-Romanian phrasebook, which was published in spring 1941. Russian-Romanian dictionary of 1953 bears the imprint of late Stalinism with such examples: master the fundamentals of Marxism-Leninism, the party is the highest form of the proletarian class organization, Leninism is Marxism of the era of imperialism and the proletarian revolution, Lenin-Stalin’s party and etc.In the first edition of Romanian language textbook written by Aida Samoilivna Sadecka (1962) we find cliches of Nikita Khrushchev`s times Soviet propaganda in the spirit of full development of communism, space exploration, which was current at the time: the 7th of November in Moscow, a kolkhoz “Red October (Chervonyj zhovten`)”, the Soviet Union on the way of building communism, the first cosmonaut is communist, major Herman Stepanovich Titov`s long-term Space flight was successfully completed, Everything is for people, everything is for the good of people (the report about the “historic” decision of the XXII Congress of the CPRS, instead, nothing is said about the extension of exposure of the cult of Stalin by Nikita Khrushchev at the Congress, because the Romanian party leader, Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej rejected the politic of de-Stalinization). In the second edition of this textbook (1974), along with traditional texts, there appear the term developed socialist society; much more attention is given to Lenin in texts, but the texts about the exploration of space are removed. Romanian Grammar reference written by Tamara Repina (Moscow, 1968) and a textbook on Romanian commercial language written by Petrunkina G. (1977) are less ideological, although there are such examples as the struggle for peace, the XX Congress of the CPRS and the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance, which included Socialist Republic of Romania. Finally, in the two volumes of the Romanian language textbook written by Jurij Zajunchkovskij, Tamara Repina and Tatiana Nicolescu (Moscow, 19821989) there are such late-Soviet ideological clichés as: “Pravda” newspaper, “Iskra” newspaper, the Communist party is the vanguard of a socialist society, the Soviet-Romanian friendship, welcome to the USSR, the Soviet Union in the vanguard of progress, the arms race, the struggle for peace, nuclear free zone, discharge. Examples of Romanian classical literature of the 19th century and the Romanian fine literature of the 20th century are selected in the spirit of “socialist realism”.
