Meaning of the word rock. History of Soviet rock music

Rock music refers to the synthesis of black rhythm and blues and country music. From the first direction a peculiar rhythmic pattern was borrowed (reverse beat: emphasis on the second and fourth beats of the bar), from the second - the completeness of the compositions and improvisation, simplified in comparison with the blues. Rock is a protest against the political situation in the country, the values ​​of the older generation, a way of self-expression and a statement of one’s own views on life. The confrontation occurs due to the lyrics and aggressive manner of performance.

Story

Music of this style first appeared in 1954. In the movie "Chalkboard Jungle" the song "Rock round the clock" was performed by Bill Haley. At the same time, Elvis Presley's records came out. Somewhat later, the Beatles, Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan appeared on the music arena.

Gradually, rock music begins to be performed as a protest against the war in Vietnam, and organizations are created whose members do not welcome armed conflicts and racism.

With the emergence of the underground in the USA ( The Doors, Steppenwolf, Blood, Sweet & Tears), and in the UK musicians try to preserve the features of traditional culture ( Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd). At the same time appears new form presentation of compositions - music album: several melodies united by one idea.

Gradually, the rock style is gaining popularity in other countries, developing and breaking up into different directions.

Jazz, hard, folk...

The style is based on classic rock. Musicians (Elton John, Sting, The Who) play electric guitar, bass guitar, drums and do not use stylistic features other directions.

Psychedelic rock is music that is composed under the influence, while progressive rock has other forms. musical construction, complexity and depth of the material presented. Progressive rockers include Blood, Sweat & Tears, Gong and others. The creativity of musicians who want to go beyond the boundaries of style is called experimental rock. The most famous experimenters are The Fugs, The Godz, Red Crayola, etc.

Another direction combines features of rock and jazz. It appeared not only because jazzmen became cramped in their style, but also as a result of the fusion of “white” and “black” music as part of the fight against racism. Famous musicians synthetic style - Georgie Fame, The Soft Machine, The Mahavishnu Orchestra, etc. Folk rock is a synthesis of rock and folk music (Bob Dylan, Joan Boez, Fairport Convention), and hard rock is characterized by specific guitar rhythms, heavy rhythm -section and excessive sound volume. Famous representatives directions - Jimi Hendrix, Iron Butterfly, Vanilla Fudge.

Also music critics they distinguish glam, gothic, etc. The definition of style varieties is somewhat arbitrary, since groups are constantly experimenting, changing the manner of playing or inventing new ways of performing.

Rock opera

Characteristic of all types of art, including music. An example of this is the synthesis of rock and drama, called rock opera. This includes episodes in which the plot is revealed. The arias are performed in rock style. Unlike classical opera, a keyboard player, guitarist, and other musicians may be present on stage. Most often, the performance is accompanied by the sound of a classical orchestra.

The singing style is assertive and aggressive, which is typical for rock music. Sometimes parts contain elements of other musical styles (jazz, folk, baroque, etc.). In addition to arias, musicians perform recitatives and plastic numbers.

Examples of works of this genre are “Hair” by G. McDermott, “Godspel” by S. Shuorz, “Juno and Avos” by A. L. Rybnikov, etc.

Rock culture

Over time, the music of rockers became so popular that elements of the style penetrated into other layers of culture, and a unique rock style arose. This is how a special language (slang) appeared, in which adherents of the style and fans speak. Slang is used to write song lyrics, but at concerts (sessions) non-verbal communication becomes more important. The unity of music, words, stage movements and images affects the human subconscious, causing certain sensations and emotional reactions.

Rockers are fond of Buddhism and other religious teachings, contrary to psychology West. In their free time from concerts, musicians and fans attend so-called happenings (meetings), where they communicate, play music, and express their opinions about everything that happens in their lives.

Trends in rock culture are manifested in clothing (indelible stains of dirt among hippies), demeanor (rock is the denial of everything and everyone, therefore aggression is characteristic of adherents of the style), rejection of traditional values, moral and aesthetic attitudes.

Rock and Christianity

The Christian religion does not recognize the right to the existence of rock, considering adherence to rock culture impossible for believers in God. Enhanced rhythms, increased frequencies, and soulful lyrics influence people’s subconscious and awaken deep instincts.

Rock has a serious impact on the psyche. After listening to such music, a person loses the ability to self-control. The content of many songs is devoted to the theme of death, human depression, and self-destruction. In many cases, passion for rock music is closely related to drug use and violence, which also does not correspond to the Christian lifestyle.

Art historians and cultural experts view rock music and everything connected with it as a confrontation traditional culture.

Introduction

The Russian national language is a historically established linguistic community and unites the entire set of linguistic means of the Russian people, including all Russian dialects and dialects, as well as social jargons. Highest form The national Russian language is the Russian literary language. Until recently philological science, while studying the dynamics of Russian speech, she paid primary attention to the positive - verbal creativity in its highest sense: bookish literary language, literary texts, poetic speech, worthy manifestations of national folklore - and was significantly less concerned with the elements of mass urban speech, an organic part of which are professional sublanguages, social jargons, and argot. Meanwhile, urban speech, as a living organism that exists relatively independently, is part of the general Russian linguistic and cultural space, with which the literary language itself is connected through many factors.

Due to its geographical remoteness from other Russian cities, as well as a number of objective social reasons (occupation of residents, influence of local dialects, living conditions, natural and climatic conditions, remoteness from large centers), the urban speech of Severodvinsk has its own personality traits. Within the framework of this speech, jargons take their place, including the jargon of musicians - a relatively small social group, which, according to our observations, are not characterized by close contacts with their own kind from other cities.

The study of social dialects is associated with certain difficulties. Subsystems are very mobile, they are uncodified and subject to laws, primarily the sociolinguistic norm, which is much less stable than the linguistic one. The main form of implementation of social dialects is oral. In written texts, elements of non-literary language occur occasionally, performing various kinds of stylistic functions. Collecting samples of oral speech is always a more labor-intensive and painstaking task than analyzing written texts, since this material clearly shows correlations between linguistic and social phenomena. However, the subject of research in itself does not necessarily predetermine the sociolinguistic nature of its description. In principle, each social dialect can be studied from a purely structural point of view - its vocabulary is described, the sources of its replenishment are identified (of course, these facts can also be given a sociolinguistic interpretation, but they can also be illuminated exclusively lexicologically), the most frequent morphological patterns are identified , features of phonetics and syntax (if any). Thus, turning to such a dynamically developing and changing idiom of Russian speech as the jargon of musicians, and in a territorially marked form (Severodvinsk), must be considered relevant and scientifically promising. The fact that the slang vocabulary of Severodvinsk has not been studied by anyone determines the scientific novelty of the study.

The research material was lexical units representing the jargon of Severodvinsk rock musicians, collected by the author.

The purpose of the thesis research is to describe the linguistic features of the jargon of Severodvinsk rock musicians.

In connection with the stated goal, the following tasks were set:

– study scientific literature on the research topic;

– characterize the place of slang vocabulary in the system of the modern Russian national language;

– identify and characterize the sources of slang vocabulary;

– to reveal the concept of “musician jargon” and its place in the Russian language space (in the system of forms of existence of the modern Russian language);

– collect and systematize examples of slang speech of Severodvinsk rock musicians;

– identify signs of systemic organization of jargon;

– describe the main methods (techniques) of the formation of slang units, identify among them the dominant ones in the formation of jargon that are part of the jargon of Severodvinsk musicians;

– present a description of the lexical-semantic groups of slang (actually slang and professional slang) vocabulary of Severodvinsk rock musicians.

At different stages of work we used various methods and techniques of analysis. The method of linguistic description with all its techniques was chosen as the main one; as well as private methods: participant observation method, comparative method. The participant observation method allows us to draw certain conclusions about speech behavior the reference group being studied, adjust the results of specific language material obtained through interviews and questionnaires. In a number of cases, slang speech was recorded without the knowledge of the informants. The technique of self-observation was also used. The recordings of the informants' speech, as well as their own speech, recorded the use of lexical units in natural conditions. When qualifying the semantics of slang units, the techniques of component analysis turned out to be productive; when characterizing the word-formation features of the studied vocabulary, formal connections within chains, prospective word-formation analysis was used, in cases where attention was paid to some combinability properties of LSV, methods of distributional analysis were used.

§ 1. The concept of the Russian language space and the space of Russian culture

The modern language situation in Russia is characterized by great dynamics, especially in the sphere of uncodified speech. Understanding and analyzing the current situation is one of the pressing problems facing modern linguistics.

The works of many scientists are devoted to the study of social dialects from various positions [Schweitzer, Nikolsky 1976; Krysin 1989; Lisovsky 1996; Grachev 1997; Khimik 2000 and others]. Currently out whole line dictionaries of various jargons and argot [Bykov 1994; Elistratov 2000; Large Dictionary of Russian Jargon 2000; Kveselevich 2003; Dictionary of the modern Russian city 2003, etc.].

According to many linguists, Russian speech is the use of the Russian language in its main functions: communication, communication, influence, etc. However, from this statement we can conclude that speaking, or the Russian language in action, is a diverse, multi-aspect process, depending, according to V.V. Chemist, from the one who says what he communicates, with whom he communicates, for what purpose and under what conditions [Khimik 2000: 3]. Russian speech is diverse. And this “diversity of the speech element as a whole is the Russian language space” Lotman 1993: 15].

Linguistic space constitutes a condition for the generation and development of cultural space and a means of its formation and existence. In other words, “language is a mirror of culture, main source history of the people and their spirit" [Khimik 2000: 8].

Your view on the concepts of Russian language and cultural space in the article “Linguistic space as a component of the paradigm of sociocultural space” is defended by N.K. Frolov: “the concept of “space”, which has become recent decades fashionable, super common in the field of science, culture, education, and is synonymous with the concepts of “field”, “habitat”, “field of activity”. For example, we can cite words and expressions such as spiritual, national, linguistic, political, legal, geographical space and even moral space<…>. Beliefs, morals, convictions, certain knowledge, methods of obtaining a livelihood, socio-political organization, etc. are fixed in oral folklore traditions and recorded by linguistic means. The totality of all these sensory-cognitive, incentive-communicative factors precisely constitutes the form of spatial existence - spiritual culture<…>. The cultural-linguistic environment includes a number of linguistic and non-linguistic components: a) orthnic language as a ready-made system of signs and meanings, famous writers, creators of language (verbal-significative component; b) material objects (denotative component); c) cognitive ethnic component, i.e. a complex of knowledge, beliefs, ideas and cognitive stereotypes; d) psychological component, which is a factor of ethnic consciousness of its linguistic orientations. Linguistic space is objectified in speech activity."
