Vlasova, V.B. - The Beauty from the Evil Burden
|
|
pp. 13-21
|
Abstract: The article is devoted to the 120th anniversary of the great Russian poet Osip Mandelstam. This article
represents the author’s views on Mandelstam’s early lyrics and his overall civic-minded position in the context of
‘intelligentsia-power-people’ issue which remained unchanged till the end of his life. Mandelstam’s creative works are
analyzed in comparison with the artistic and social ideals of the ‘silver age’ poets living in the same time. Philosophers’
researches of the poet’s works are mostly focused on the study of his understanding of harmony (from the point
of view of both esthetics and society) as a challenging and dramatic struggle between the beautiful and the unkind.
Even though it is a tragic struggle, the Beauty united with the Truth and Kindness win this fight.

Dobrokhotov, A. L. - Euphorion or Stages of Spiritual Growth in Goethe’s ‘Faust’
|
|
pp. 22-28
|
Abstract: Being one of the most mysterious heroes in Goethe’s Faust, Euphorion becomes clear if we look at him from
the point of view of the main theme of this book, - a birth of a perfect human. In such a case, Euphorion appears to be
not only the symbol of poetry, but also a spirit who left the earth and the feminine nature behind him. He is some kind
of Homunculus and one of the negative alter-ego of Faust.
Keywords:
philology, Goethe, Byron, personality, Euphorion poetry, romanticism, classicism, feminity, alchemistry.

of the article discusses the role of imagination in a creative reproduction of the past through words. Based on the
author, the main idea of the book is a struggle between a human in the stream of change and the power of time. By
nature human a complete creature because he has a gift for thought and word, and therefore he is immortal. Analyzing
some moments of Chateabriand’s poetics, the author of the article concludes that human can achieve success in

Skvortsova, E. L. - On the Question of Peculiarities of Far-Eastern Esthetics (based on the analysis of Imamiti
Tomonobu’s views)
|
|
pp. 67-82
|
Abstract: The article is devoted to the analysis of views of a major Japanese aesthetician Imamiti Tomonobu. It analyzes
proto esthetical views of ancient Japanese and descries stages of development of Japanese esthetics as well as
views of famous representatives of Japanese culture. Special attention is paid at ‘impersonality’ of Japanese spiritual
tradition. The ‘continent’ culture taught Japanese that the true knowledge is not just a discourse system of verbally
structured texts but some kind of a ‘heart response’ to vague images which are only to obtain material forms. Ancient
masters taught their students not only to stamp forms but also to understand what is ‘above’, ‘before’, ‘outside’ and
‘above’ the form. The author of the article also underlines the lasting value of Far-Eastern experience in esthetics. At
the present time the theory of esthetics needs not only discursive but also sensual or so-called ‘bodily’ way of thinking.
Therefore, it can be very useful to study traditional Japanese esthetics and its ‘mind of the body’ priority.
Keywords:
philology, Japanese esthetics, ‘mind of the body’, Imamiti Tomonobu, discursive knowledge, impersonality of Japanese culture, etymology of Japanese sense of beauty, ‘vegetal’ nature of Japanese esthetics, stages of development of Japanese esthetics, relation of esthetic and ethic aspects.
