• Apriorität und autochthone Ideen der Kultur

  ... a priori lies in certain ways of being of the man.

To such autochthonic ideas the author adds the idea of the sacral (dismemberment of space of sense) and also the idea of soul (comprehension of a temporal constancy)....

• Reception of Kant’s Epistemological Ideas in Fyodor Golubinsky’s Metaphysics

  ... spiritual-academic philosophical tradition of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A prominent representative of these was Fyodor Golubinsky. He was among the first to react to Kant’s “Copernican turn”. He did not merely study the epistemological ideas of Kant but embraced them and modified them in the framework of his own philosophical teaching. To determine why Golubinsky turned to Kant’s ideas, to what extent he shared them and with what he disagreed and why, I propose to reconstruct Kant’s ...

Kant’s thought that the people is the only monarch and that legislative power is vested in it in a rule-of-law state is the central idea of the tragedy. When working on Boris Godunov,...

Of interest are the ideas of the great logician and mathematician Kurt Gödel about the analytical ...

• ‘The Radical Black Colour’. On the Semantics of the Black Colour in Anarchist Discourse

  ... the sociocultural and ontological aspects of the colour black as a symbol of anarchist criticism of power and the state. The anarchist black colour is counterposed to the white colour — a symbol of power in many cultures.

This idea is connected with the prototypical root of the colour black — the night, which is associated with chaos ...

• Condorcet interpretation of probability’s theory: the use of a mathematical construct to the field of social action

  ... theory to moral and political disciplines thus creating a basis for social forecasting. The methods he developed made it possible to predict the results of political elections and formed the basis for the theory of social choice.

• I. Kant on religion, faith, god, and church

  ... analysis of the German philosopher’s major works on the philosophical doctrine of religion, namely Lectures on the philosophical doctrine of religion and Religion within the Boundaries of Mere Reason.

The published Lectures confirm the fact that Kant never considered the problems of philosophy of religion as minor ones. When comparing the two major works ...

• The theme of Old Believers in the works of Alexander Kuprin: discus­sion and study prospects

Tolstoy and A. Chekhov on the formation of the author's idea of old-timers.

Particularly emphasized is the inextricability of the author’s ideas about a “split” ...

• The problem of antinomy of pure theoretical reason in Kant’s system

  ... However, it is not explicitly expressed. Instead of this crucial structural element, which would significantly simplify the understanding of such a complicated treatise, the Critique of Pure Reason presents the system of antinomies of the cosmological idea of pure reason. However, these phenomena are not identical — there is a great difference between the antinomy of pure reason and a system of particular antinomies of one of its ideas. The article addresses this complication and the reasons behind ...

• Kantian motives in logic and philosophy of science. Idea of Unity of a priory and empirical knowledge

  Kant insisted on the inherent unity of a priori and empirical elements of cognition. To what extent further progress of philosophy and exact sciences confirmed (or modified) original Kant ideas?

• Kant between liberalism and conservatism

  Kant has a reputation of one of the chief proponents of political liberalism. However, some of his important ideas can qualify as conservative. Their consequences are reaching far enough to sug¬gest a reevaluation of Kant as an unconditional liberal.

• Kant and Hegel, an alleged right and the ‘inverted world’

  ... one of ontological predicates discussed by Kant in lectures on metaphysics. This concept expresses relation of substance to its attributes and plays an important role in Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit. Law is a simple form of unity incorporating an idea of the play of powers, whereas power is a category that makes it possible to understand the supersensible as a realm of laws. This interpretation is inherent in the system of not only theoretical but also practical reason. Freedom is the ‘substance’ ...

• The voice of history and the politics: On the issue of effective historical consciousness in modern history in the light of N. Karamzin’s historiography

  ... Karamzin’s historical and providential method in the context of philosophical hermeneutics of H.-G. Gadamer. Highlighting a deep connection of the ideological basis of Karamzin’s historiography with the up-to-now-incomplete search for the “Russian idea” the paper shows the suitability of appealing to Karamzin’s historiographical methodology against the backdrop of still controversial dynamics of Russian history, with its typical duality, dual beliefs, and vagueness regarding its place in the ...

• Another Critical Idealism of Hermann Cohen

  ... author’s first and preliminary answer is that the study of Hermann Cohen’s thought is relevant to contemporary philosophy due to at least five reasons: (1) Cohen’s improvement of critical idealism of subject through replacing it with the idealism of ideas; (2) the exposition of thought as the ethics of law; (3) the development of the notion of anticipation as the principle of time, history, and interpretation; (4) the exposition of critical idealism as a form of idealism that is not violent, totalitarian ...

• Inadvisable Concession: Kant’s Critique of the Political Philosophy of Christian Garve

  ... are inclined to abuse it. I interpret this judgement by making a detailed comparison of the texts of the two treatises. I demonstrate that Garve’s work is an eclectic attempt to combine in one concept the lessons of historical experience with the ideas drawn from British empiricism and German rationalism. These ideas were criticised by Kant in his “critical” period. There is a consensus among researchers that Garve condoned the expansionist policy of Frederick II of Prussia, totally denied ...

• Ideas of Kant’s theoretical philosophy in Peirce’s graph theory

  C. S. Peirce is a prominent figure in the nineteenth-century American philosophy. His contribution to philosophy and logic is enormous.

Peirce was fascinated by the German thinker, who literally opened for him the philosophy of modern era and introduced ...

• Hermann Cohens Konzept der Anthropodizee in der Sicht Jacob Gordins

  ... University in December 1921. For the study of the problem of anthropodicy he was apparently inspired by the discussions at the Free Philosophical Association in 1919—1921. Gordin places Cohen’s concept of man in the wide intellectual context given by the ideas of the Russian religious philosophy, German classical philosophy, Neo-Kantianism, and the West European and Jewish mysticism (cabbala). Gordin compares Cohen’s anthropodicy with Vladimir Soloviev’s one and shows that there is a similarity in ...
