Time and word in social and cultural space of the modernity

Referring to the past era often intends to show the social and political system and, accordingly, focus is on the opinion of philosophers, sociologists, political scientists, etc. In this case, often on the sidelines is a person, his feelings, and attitude. This is evident in the attitude to the recent Soviet past of our country. In this regard, along with the coverage of the problem of time fixation in the artistic consciousness, we analyze the spiritual life of the transitional period, the main feature of which is the contradictory assessment of the 70-year history of the USSR. And it is not only about the nihilistic attitude, in the simplified denial of the Soviet experience, but also on ignoring the spiritual quest, the history of the formation of images and meanings inherent in our nation. The past time is not only economics and ideology, it is also artistic culture. Nihilistic attitude to the Soviet era is the way to oblivion of a huge cultural layer. It is an axiom which for some reason needs to be proved again and again. The social and cultural approach to the understanding of the past and present time has a greater tolerance in judgments and allows to fill the gaps in the public consciousness, to present spiritual life in diversity and uniqueness. The works of words, screen masters, sociologists conclusions contribute to the understanding of the recent past and the rapidly changing reality of the transition time.
