Abstract
The Great Patriotic War occupies a special place in Russian history, which determines the interest of researchers in the front-line past. The task of the modern scientific and humanitarian community is to preserve the cultural and historical memory of a significant event in Russian history in the conditions of a rapid process of loss of both its direct participants and the most valuable original documents of the era. The authors made an attempt to expand the semantic horizons of the cultural memory of the war by presenting a block of new sources, the so-called documents of personal origin, which allow us to reveal the everyday feelings of the combatants, their emotional reactions to events, and identify the tactics of everyday and combat behavior. The narrative-textual and historical-anthropological approach to the study of the epistolary heritage of the participants of the Second Defense of Sevastopol allowed the authors to detail the value-volitional portrait of the front-line soldier. The research identifies the conditions and circumstances of the perception of the enemy by front-line soldiers, due to which the image of the enemy and the choice of behavioral strategies and tactics based on the situation of conflict and tension in the context of the most difficult defensive battles on the last lines of the city of Sevastopol is formed.
