Journal Title: Записки історичного факультету - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 29

Abstract

At the time of the social modernization in the second half of the nineteenth century in the Russian Empire the conditions have formed, with the events of Jewish pogroms, the ground for attention to the socalled “Jewish question”. Understanding this term despite its certain stability was different, including the relationship between Jews and non-Jews and the content of the term «Jew». At that time the newspapers of different ideological directions have taken the participation in the discussion on the question, offering contradictory images of the Jewish population. A study of the features of complex images of radical character, that influenced the formation of the value basis for individual and social behavior is important as analysis of the historical experience of interethnic relations in Ukraine under circumstancies of the developing modern European Ukraine and existing the need to prevent the manifestations of social conflict. On the other hand, the existing historiography, which covers certain aspects of the problem, does not highlights its regional aspect, and also has elective character. For example, the mutual perception and understanding of the Ukrainians and the Jews is studied, but the perception of the Jewish community in the mass mind of a particular region is not studied, that is the territorial approach, which allows more comprehensive review of the issue is not used much. Therefore, the chosen problem has the public and scientific relevance. The subject of this research is the peculiarities of images of the Jewish population that formed on the pages of the Odessa newspaper «Novorossijskij Telegraph») in the first half of the 1880’s, from mass pogrom in 1881 till the pogrom in the summer of 1886. The analysis of the content of the publications of «Novorossijskij Telegraph», which presented radical anti-Semitic streams, in the first half of the 1880’s. discovered features of so called by us «external national identity» or images of the Jewish population, disseminated through newspaper’s publications in Odessa and among the consumers of the Odessa press in general. «Novorossijskij Telegraph» presented the Jews as the religious and national community, with the selfish interests opposite to interests of the rest of the population, which must be the object of struggle because it was presented as the «source of economic exploitation for the Christians». The image of the Jewish population in the «Novorossijskij Telegraph»was an example of radical propaganda, that formed the basis for the further development of the conflict on the base of opposition of Jews and non-Jews in Odessa. It has revealed, in particular, in the exacerbation of social relations in Odessa and in the so-called «disorders» in 1886
