The purpose of high culture in our days is solving the conflict between relativistic way of thinking and life-creating commitments of art. Aesthetics and ideology of postmodernism pretends to conform to relativistic gnosis, philosophic criticism points at its’ secondarity, multiplication of entropy, lack of perspective. Return to the value-oriented paradigm of thinking, but with keeping the deep reflexiveness of form actualized non-canonic by form, but traditional by system of values model of creation - literary primitivism. and its’ spiritual and aesthetic program is reconstruction of deconstruction of total and clear understanding of world, where found image is the naive consciousness.   

Comparative method of analysis showed that content of poetics about literature was limited by attacks on naive and apology of naive at the edge of XX-XXI centuries. The valuable relativism of post-modernistic conceptualism exploits the mask of non-reflexive simplicity of D. Prigov’s poems and novels of V. Sorokin. Simple-minded willful consciousness protects the viably necessary meanings: faith, love, patriotism, humanism, compassion. Literature of high naive expresses child immediacy, following the commandment “Let us be like children” (poems and prose of T.Kibirova, historiosophy of V. Sharov), sympathizes to “fools” (prose by V. Pietsoukh and O. Zayonchkovski), portrays blessed ones (poems by M.Stepanova, dramas by V.Levanov and L. Petrushevskaya), animates fables (L. Petrushevskaya, O. Zayonchkovski). Poetics of primitivism is simplicity, clarity, emotional contagion, genuine “artlessness” of form - which are displayed by para-folclore stories, portraits of “simple” characters and sentimental narratives.

The tendency to naive is spontaneously, it can’t develope itself into a direction, but it expresses a conscious strategy of the authors. Naive has declared itself via lyrics and satire, prose, essays and dramaturgy, which indicates conscious polemics with the ideas, anthropology and aesthetics of relativism. Consistency is manifested by the fact that the naive opposes postmodernism in almost all key points of sociology, philosophy of creativity and poetic of its expression.Relativism is opposed by ontological consciousness - not in pathetic, but in organic forms; it is opposed by laugh as the way of cognition, existence, criticising and proving the meanings. Unnatural anthropology is opposed by the image of “simple” hero in various life and behavior modifications: blessed one, foolish one, child, vice sceptic, people’s poet. Naive is the resource, the explanation and the way of displaying of modern humanism.
