The focus of the study is the problem of “entry” or “penetration” of pre-revolutionary philosophy into Soviet philosophy. On the example of the oeuvre of E.K. Gertsyk, the author of “Memoirs” on the philosophers and writers of the religious and philosophical revival at the turn of the 19th–20th centuries, the translator of the works of F. Nietzsche, J. Huysmans, F. von Baader and others, the thinker who created her own version of the philosophy of life, it is shown how a representative of the culture of the Silver Age managed to reconcile with the Soviet reality. The article traces Gertsyk’s creative evolution from the philosophy of the phenomenon, presented in her dissertation essay on the problem of the real world in the Kant’s philosophy (1904), to the philosophy of life; her interpretation of Kant’s epistemology is considered; the concept of a path (a key one in Gertsyk’s work) was analyzed on the basis of works written in the early Soviet years (the hagiographic treatise “On the Ways” (1917–1918), the essay “Edgar Poe” (1918–1927)); the influences of decisive importance for Gertsyk’s philosophical searches are considered (I. Kant, F. Nietzsche, L. Shestov, N. Berdyaev, V. Ivanov, A. Bergson and etc). The article focuses on the transitional stage of Gertsyk’s oeuvre, when there was an increase in religiosity and apocalyptic moods in her mindset, which in the 1930s was replaced by a departure from Christianity as a stronghold of the old culture and old values, justification and apologia for the new social reality, demonstrated by Gertsyk in the well-known letters “from there”, i.e. from the Soviet Russia, published on the pages of the Parisian journal “Sovremennye zapiski” and caused a mixed reaction in the emigrant community. The article shows what ideological attitudes allowed the participant of the decadent meetings and the interlocutor of Russian religious philosophers to accept the Soviet reality.
研究的重点是革命前哲学对苏联哲学的“进入”或“渗透”问题。格特西克是19 - 20世纪之交宗教和哲学复兴的哲学家和作家的《回忆录》的作者，也是F.尼采、J.休斯曼、F.冯·巴德尔等人作品的译者，这位思想家创造了自己的生活哲学版本，以格特西克的作品为例，展示了白银时代文化的代表如何设法与苏联现实和解。本文追溯格特塞克的创作历程，从她的论文《康德哲学中的现实世界问题》(1904)中提出的现象哲学到生命哲学;考虑她对康德认识论的解释;路径的概念(格茨克作品中的一个关键概念)是在苏联早期创作的作品(圣徒化的论文《在路上》(1917-1918)，散文《埃德加·坡》(1918-1927))的基础上进行分析的;本文考虑了对格特塞克的哲学探索具有决定性重要性的影响(I. Kant, F. Nietzsche, L. Shestov, N. Berdyaev, V. Ivanov, A. Bergson等)。本文将重点放在格特塞克作品的过渡阶段，当时她的思维方式中宗教信仰和启示情绪有所增加，而在20世纪30年代，她的思维方式被基督教所取代，基督教是旧文化和旧价值观的堡垒，是对新社会现实的辩护和辩护，格特塞克在著名的“来自那里”，即来自苏俄的信件中证明了这一点。这篇文章发表在巴黎的《扎皮斯基共和国》(sovremenye zapiski)杂志上，在移民社区引起了不同的反应。文章展示了什么样的意识形态态度让颓废会议的参与者和俄罗斯宗教哲学家的对话者接受了苏联的现实。

The article examines the socio-political aspect of the new atheism. Within the framework of this phenomenon, initially associated with the four bestselling authors R. Dawkins, S. Harris, K. Hitchens, D. Dennett, who launched the “fight against religion” in the mid-2000s, a community and a weakly organized movement eventually formed. A number of connected questions are considered: characteristics of the phenomenon of new atheism (origins, sources, specifics); perception of atheism and new atheism by society in the USA and Great Britain; political views of key figures of the new atheism, external assessment of their political influence; views and activity of supporters, external assessment of the socio-political influence of the movement. The article focuses on the aspects of the new atheism as a movement in the USA and the UK. The author comes to the following conclusions: the “creators” of the new atheism scarcely touch upon the socio-political agenda in their activities (the main foreign policy interest is the fight against Islamic terrorism); currently, the new atheism as a movement and a community reacts to politics rather than forms it; not all actions of new atheists aimed at reducing the social and political presence of religion or at reducing discrimination against atheists achieve their goals; the main achievement of the new atheism movement is that atheism as a worldview ceases to be a marginal agenda, and non-believers receive a formalized, positively colored identity for themselves. The latter is important in the context of discrimination of non-believers against believers, which in the United States takes place both in the public consciousness and even at the highest political level.

The article defends the thesis that in the context of moral responsibility (MR) as it is understood in modern Strawsonian theories of MR, psychological approach has significant advantages in comparison with competing approaches to personal identity problem: biological approach, substantialism and narrative view. In the Strawsonian theories, two generally accepted necessary conditions of the appropriateness of holding someone responsible are the conditions of moral agency and agency of action. The article shows that for these conditions to be satisfied a person who is to be hold morally responsible now for some past action should stay not only numerically, but also qualitatively identical in respect to his quality of will and moral capacities. That raises the problem of personal identity over time in the context of MR. It is shown that psychological approach helps to clarify the kind of personal identity that is required for the conditions of moral agency and agency of action to be satisfied, it is compatible with all the Strawsonian theories of MR and copes with much of moral collisions that are usually presented as its problematic consequences. It is also shown that the competing approaches to personal identity are either cannot clarify the relevant for MR kind of personal identity, or incompatible with most of the Strawsonian theories of MR and leads to moral collisions. That gives strong reasons to prefer the psychological approach to personal identity in the context of MR.

: Slavoj Zizek's Lacanian adaptation of the Hegelian dialectics has attracted much attention in Western scholarship, and this unique dialectic is used as a fundamental research method throughout the entirety of Zizek's theoretical system. Taking the antagonistic relationship between the supersensible and appearance as a starting point, this paper transforms the epistemological opposition between the two into an ontological split, thus transforming the relationship between the two into a relationship between void and fantasy, and finally arriving at the double meanings of the proposition "the supersensible is appearance qua appearance". Accordingly, this paper proposes the quaternary structure of Zizek's dialectics, which provides a basic interpretive framework for understanding Zizek's postmodern theory.

: Marxist philosophy is the sum of the view of practice, philosophy and human nature, and learning Marxist philosophy can enable people to establish dialectical thinking and philosophical world view. Marxist philosophy plays a crucial role in using philosophical thinking to understand the relationship between man and the world, man and society, and man and man. Establishing a correct world outlook, consciously deepening philosophical cultivation, broadening theoretical space, and cultivating keen judgment and theoretical generalization are conducive to examining, guiding and regulating life with philosophical thinking. A deep understanding of philosophical thinking helps to grasp the objective law of the development of things, improve the state of life, and explore the truth of life. Consciously cultivating philosophical thinking and mastering the basic system of philosophy in life practice can continuously promote the integration of philosophy and reality, interwoven and collision between theoretical thinking and life practice, and provide spiritual nourishment for people's growth.

: As a pioneer of cross-cultural dialogue between the East and the West, Tagore’s creation of a subject consciousness is of great significance to the understanding of Asian civilisation, but it has not received due attention in academic circles. His construction of subjectivity reflects the characteristics of Asian civilization. Under the influence of the thought of Brahma, humanity is the spiritual subject in the relationship with nature and the divine. Tagore’s transcendent subject is different from the West’s subject which is completely defined by apposition with the object. As a force of reflection, the subject consciousness infiltrates Tagore’s thinking on the relationship between Eastern and Western civilisation from the perspective of cosmopolitanism using the Asian philosophies of the relationship among nature, others and even the self. Tagore’s construction of subjectivity is of great significance for communication and mutual learning between Eastern and Western civilisation.

This publication is a translation of a Latin text by the Franciscan philosopher and theologian of the first third of the 14th century, Petrus Thomae (c. 1280–1340). Petrus Thomae is one of the early followers of the philosophy and theology of John Duns Scotus and probably the most interesting and important metaphysician belonging to the emerging among the Franciscan scholars in the 1310s–1330s “schola Scotica”. We have translated the text of the 7th question from the metaphysical treatise of Petrus Thomae “Questions on the modes of distinctions” (written around 1325). This question is an explication of the concept of “formality” fundamental to the early Scotist tradition and its relationship with the metaphysical concept of a thing, as well as an analysis of the problem most discussed among the first followers of Scotus: to what extent the formal distinction (or the distinction between formalities) coincides with or differs from the real distinction as a distinction between different things. Thus, this rather brief question by Petrus is an exploration of a problematic at the heart of the metaphysics and epistemology of the early Scotists, and of paramount importance both for the consideration of questions of scholastic theology and for the philosophical analysis of finite being and its constitution. The translation from Latin was made from the “working edition” of the Latin text of this question prepared by the translator, which was constituted on the basis of a collatio of 6 manuscripts of the 14th–15th centuries. The translation is accompanied by a historical and philosophical commentary and preliminary remarks by the translator.

Hegel’s so-called system of philosophy is a speculative, i.e. meta-level or topical reflection on the logical roles of concepts in world-related empirical knowledge. Its main insight is that the so-called explanations in the science are a result of a world-wide work on ‘the concept’, the translatable semantics of our languages, which form a relatively a priori and generic precondition for concrete assertions and their understanding.

An unbiased metaphysics of consciousness allows us to put forward a thesis that consciousness is not an object, but a fundamental problem of modern philosophy and different solutions of this problem define the history of European philosophy. For Descartes, consciousness is Cogito, the personalization of substance by the mind acting in a variety of cogital, conscious acts. Kant, for whom substance is a mode of thinking the unity of experience, Cogito is not a thing (Res), but a transcendental condition for the formation of notions in the process of categorical synthesis. The resurgent phenomenology and analytical philosophy of consciousness in the 21st century aim at studying consciousness, respectively, in the transcendental-theoretical and pragmatic-naturalistic settings. Continuing the Kantian line of thinking, one can see the processuality of consciousness as data acquisition process, but the verb formed from a noun “consciousness” (for this processuality) is difficult to adequately translate into English. To achieve completeness in identifying the problem area of the philosophy of consciousness, it is necessary to take into account one more type of conscious activity referred to as “osoznanie” in Russian (“awareness”, “coming into consciousness about something”). The Russian verb formed from the noun Smysl cannot be adequately translated into English as the main language of the analytical philosophy of consciousness and this term can mean the opposite of data acquisition process and can refer us to the idea of Integrity (A.V. Smirnov). Once the most important, meaningful and existential activity of the mind is identified as the denotation of this term, the problem of Smysl acquires the potential of changing the perspective on the possibility of creating a “strong” AI.

For Descartes, consciousness is Cogito, the personalization of substance by the mind acting in a variety of cogital, conscious acts. Kant, for whom substance is a mode of thinking the unity of experience, Cogito is not a thing (Res), but a transcendental condition for the formation of notions in the process of categorical synthesis. The resurgent phenomenology and analytical philosophy of consciousness in the 21st century aim at studying consciousness, respectively, in the transcendental-theoretical and pragmatic-naturalistic settings. Continuing the Kantian line of thinking, one can see the processuality of consciousness as data acquisition process, but the verb formed from a noun “consciousness” (for this processuality) is difficult to adequately translate into English. To achieve completeness in identifying the problem area of the philosophy of consciousness, it is necessary to take into account one more type of conscious activity referred to as “osoznanie” in Russian (“awareness”, “coming into consciousness about something”). The Russian verb formed from the noun Smysl cannot be adequately translated into English as the main language of the analytical philosophy of consciousness and this term can mean the opposite of data acquisition process and can refer us to the idea of Integrity (A.V. Smirnov). Once the most important, meaningful and existential activity of the mind is identified as the denotation of this term, the problem of Smysl acquires the potential of changing the perspective on the possibility of creating a “strong” AI.","PeriodicalId":41795,"journal":{"name":"Filosofskii Zhurnal","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135711804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
