Abstract.<\/em><\/strong> The article analyzes A. I. Solzhenitsyn\u2019s lectures and speeches delivered in lecture halls
\nin Vladivostok, Moscow, Rostov, Ryazan, Samara, Saratov, Tver, Tomsk, Windsor, Harvard, Zurich and other towns and cities in Russia, Europe and the USA to investigate the writer\u2019s ethical and aesthetic views on the modern world, his ideas about self-improvement, his perception of humanist values. The article proves that Solzhenitsyn strives to endow his young listeners with moral qualities, such as self-discipline, fairness, conscience.\u00a0 The author of the article maintains that Solzhenitsyn tries to warn his young listeners against mistakes associated with lack of experience, talks about threats facing humankind, such as 1) elusive truth that can result in social disruption and hostility, 2) a decline in courage, lack of willpower, cowardliness, subservience, pragmatism, 3) rejection of freedom and independence for the sake of comfort, material wealth, enjoyment. For Solzhenitsyn, all risks of modern life are associated with moral destitution, emasculated humanism, spiritual crisis, political impasse. He underlines such hidden dangers as boundless materialism, complete disregard of religion and religious duties, sciolism. Solzhenitsyn\u2019s advice to his young listeners is based on communicativeness, which is one of the pillars of his aesthetics. Solzhenitsyn couldn\u2019t imagine his life without his dialogues with his readers, his contemporaries, his literature, his time. Reading Solzhenitsyn\u2019s prose, his memoirs, his literary criticism, we see a wide variety of rhetorical devices. The author concludes that Solzhenitsyn\u2019s communication with young people in the 1960s-1990s reeks of professional competencies which are in high demand nowadays, which ensure the formation of an educated and harmoniously developed personality. Solzhenitsyn highlights the importance of knowing world and national history and culture,
\nhe wants young people to be able to develop and preserve moral values, and humane character. He urges them to practice self-discipline and conscience. He encourages them to awaken \u201ckind feelings\u201d Alexander Pushkin speaks about in his poem \u201cMy Monument\u201d.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\nKeywords:<\/em><\/strong> A. I.
