For more than seventy years the memory of the October revolution of 1917 had been the basis for Soviet identity. The article discusses the development of the main elements of Soviet historical narrative dedicated to the event, as well as the reloading of the commemorative program of the revolution in post-Soviet Russia; as a result, the centennial of the revolution turned out to be not only «inconvenient», but also «doubtful» in view of the modern Russian government. The historical policy of the current elite, the century-old distance from the events in 1917, as well as postmodern realities of the XXI century, making it increasingly difficult to perceive the metanarratives of past times, all these could not but affect the collective memory of modern Russian society regarding events and actors of the revolution and its general perception. Taking into account the typology of social forgetting phenomenon by P. Connerton, the authors of the article highlight oblivion practices relating to the revolution, which are used within the framework of official history politics in postSoviet Russia.

The day of november 7th - what sort of calendar day is that?: centenary of memory and oblivion practices on October revolution of 1917
