Трагедия А.С. Хомякова «Ермак»: религиософское рассуждение, стилизация под сибирский колорит или намеренное упрощение национального вопроса

We analyze a drama work as a carrier of religious and philosophical points. In the play on the background of a historical event, the opinion about the gods as the land protectors, who revenge the conquerors, is stated. The study of the historical and religious-philosophical layers of interaction of the work results in the conclusion that the semantics expands in the play, which has traditionally been considered as “boring” by the researchers and related to the “second” literary series.
