The paper studies the problem of interaction of people from various countries and cultures in the conditions of cultural globalization, which creates new problems of cultural adaptation. The paper explores the concepts of «communication», «intercultural communication». The problem of forming the ability of the individual to effective intercultural communication as a means of understanding the mental characteristics of different cultures, which is a guarantor of effective dialogue of cultures in the modern world. The characteristics of intercultural misunderstandings in the process of communication was submitted. Communication as a reflection of the intercultural ties of specific groups of people in a particular period of historical development of society is studied. Intercultural communication in the pedagogical process is also considered as a method of socio-cultural adaptation, due to the interaction of different cultures and the mental characteristics of their carriers. The teacher of Ukrainian (Russian) as a foreign language must be understood that foreign students have already formed ideas about their nation. Therefore, it is important to teach them the differences between cultures, to respect the cultural sensitivities, to overcome stereotypes. Foreign students should learn to understand why people of other cultures must behave in particular way. In the conditions of modern education, when people from various countries with specific features of national character and thinking study in one group, the question of intercultural communication acquires special significance. Cultural diversity implies intercultural enrichment. Shortening of intercultural distance, willingness to adapt to existing realities will provide an opportunity to develop an optimal strategy for collaboration in the group. A dialogue of cultures has contributed progress in universal culture. During the dialogue of culture, there is an acquaintance with another culture and constant development through the mutual enrichment of different cultures.
The article explores national motives (Ukrainian, Jewish, Yakut), which are found in the stories, essays and novels of V. Korolenko, and the problem of the intercultural communication that takes place in his works. Ukraine, namely the Volyn region, the second half of the XIX century, where the childhood of the future writer took place, is described in his works. Korolenko acquaints readers with the bright pages of its history, cultural traditions, customs, peculiarities of life, uses folklore sources, in particular, the heroic epic and mythology. The material for the analysis was the stories „Without a tongue”, „Children of the dungeon”, „The forest is noisy”. In particular, the story „Without a tongue” is full of characteristic ethnographic realities of Polissya village: Ukrainian houses under thatched roofs, features of religion due to the interaction of Catholicism and Orthodoxy, the specifics of the local dialect and even clothing. In the course of the study, the synthesis of Ukrainian, Polish and partly Jewish cultures, characteristic of this cultural and historical locus. Jewish motifs are widely represented: historical plots („Legends of Flora, Agrippa and Menachem, son of Yehuda”); cultural and religious identity of the Jewish people, language, clothing, characteristics of life, etc. (the story „The Mendel Brothers”; traditional holidays and elements of folklore (the image of Hapun in the story „Judgment Day (Yom Kippur”)). There are Yakut national motives: descriptions of the life of the local population, local traditions and customs, the specifics of religious ideas, which are a synthesis of Christianity and paganism (the story „Dream of Makar”) In V. Korolenko’s „Siberian stories”. The proposed exploration, with the selection and analysis of national motives in the most famous works of V. Korolenko, opens opportunities for further study of the writer’s work in this context, in particular, in the autobiographical novel „History of my contemporary”.
