Something along those lines may be Orlando Figes' and Boris Kolonitskii's Interpreting the Russian Revolution: The Language and Symbols of 1917 (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1999) consisting of chapters on the 'desacralisation of the monarchy' (rumours, postcards, pornographic material, letters, etc); symbols (the red flag, the ties between the word 'red' in Russian and the word 'beautiful', for example, as well as its religious significance); revolutionary leaders like Lenin, Kornilov and Kerensky; languages of 'citizenship' and 'class' (terms such as 'comrade'); language dissemination into rural Russia and, often, the misinterpretation of revolutionary, city terms and, lastly, 'images of the enemy' e.g. Jews. Figes has done larger works on the Russian revolution(s) - A People's Tragedy: The Russian Revolution 1891-1924 comes to mind - but perhaps his work with Kolonitskii will provide you with a slightly different, if not wholly unique, approach to the topic! Although it is still based heavily in the revolution, you might have a hard time finding a book on the fall of the Romanovs/Tsarist regime that makes little to no reference to Russia’s political and ideological situation at the time.
