Drawing on the extensive research into diverse materials published in the Russian Federation after the collapse of the Soviet Union, it demonstrates how an initially religious idea has penetrated secular discourses and what implications this entails. By applying the innovative analytical category of ideomyth, the book successfully answers the question of how and why the figure of the Antichrist is employed within the Russian post-Soviet semiosphere, with a special focus on texts that emerged within nationalist and religious milieus.AntichristPolitische TheologiePolitical TheologyApocalyptic FigureApokalyptische FigurAntichristPolitische TheologiePolitical TheologyApocalyptic FigureApokalyptische Figur820.9357Dolinska-Rydzek Magdaaut1836239Ibler ReinhardedtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967052903321The Antichrist in Post-Soviet Russia: Transformations of an Ideomyth4414136UNINA
