Walks in Russia of the beginning of the XVIII century

Currently, the boundaries of scientific research of various phenomena in the framework of subject specializations are expanding. The problem of developing a methodology for the essence of the structural and semantic elements of a knowable subject becomes relevant (in our case, such a subject is a “walk” as a system of life values). Studying the content and forms of walks so far has not been in the field of scientific interests of researchers. Modern technologies and practices have allowed to comprehend concepts related to the walk in the new space and time, to consider the prerequisites for the origin of the “walk” and its stages of development. The walk is a historically conditioned, sociocultural phenomenon that generates a multidimensional system of contexts. It combines the principles of labor and leisure activities of a person in various communication practices. It is initially filled with a lot of deep existential meanings. The basis for the formation of a compositional and meaningful model of a walk is the presence of the object (walk as a phenomenon) and the subject (participants of this action); implementation of the communicative goals and objectives, actions of individual heroes; the influence of external factors (including temporal, spatial). Its development is determined by current needs, human rights and interests, and value attitude to reality. The process of learning walks is extensive and varied. It is based on ontological, epistemological, sociological, axiological knowledge. The transition in the XVIII century. walks to a new level provided extraordinary opportunities for its development. During this period, we can talk about the emergence of various forms of festivities. Peter the Great played a role in this process. He allowed not only to find solutions as a “careful” way of presenting the walk to Russian society, but also made it possible to broaden views, develop certain relations with it. The origin of the city walk at the beginning of the XVIII century is a universal process aimed at the development and implementation of many elements, which subsequently allowed, above all, to develop the leisure of that time. To this day, the walk has not lost its relevance. Today, it is still multifunctional and is characterized by professional and leisure components of modern life. The impact that the walk has on society is transformative, aimed at changing for the better in terms of human health, the transformation of attitudes. In the future, the walk as a phenomenon can be used as a tool to attract attention and study the specific values of the past and modern Russian society.
