Philosophy and Cosmology, Volume 26, 148-155. https://doi.org/10.29202/phil-cosm/26/12 The research reflects the philosophy of vitality, mortality, and immortality, based on the mystical life and theories of Hryhoriy Skovoroda and Confucius. What connects these two philosophers from different epochs and parts of the world? What makes them always stay interesting for each new generation? And what are their ideas still provoking plenty of interpretations? Dealing with real philosophy, there are always more questions than answers. We can never be sure whether the true ideas of the teachings of the philosophers of such high level were revealed or stayed mysterious secrets for the next generations. But we hope to analyze the tips, given by the great minds, to find out someday the clues to the actual problems for humankind of any century: What is the sense of life? Where can we find happiness? Is it possible to predict death? Are there any possibilities for becoming immortal? This study is focused on investigating the possible answers to all these questions, using modern discoveries of American scientists and the clues left for us in the legacy of the philosophers beyond time and space: Hryhoriy Skovoroda and Confucius.

(541) 344-1528 • Fax (541) 344-1506 An imprint of WIPF and STOCK Publishers Visit our Web site at www.wipfandstock.com Contemporary philosophy and theology are ever more conscious of the fact that the model of relations between religion and culture developed in modernity is fundamentally flawed. e processes of the secularization of society, culture, and even religion are rooted in the dualistic vision of religion and culture introduced in the late Middle Ages. In seeking a way out, we need to explore domains of culture unaffected by Western European secular thinking. Russian thought is remarkably well prepared to formulate an alternative to secular modernity. Indeed, in Russian culture there was neither a Renaissance nor an Enlightenment. Eastern Christianity retained an integral patristic vision of human nature that had not been divided into separate “natural” and “supernatural” elements. ese pre- and non-modern visions are now gaining exceptional value in the postmodern reality in which we find ourselves. e heritage of Russian Christian thought may serve as a source of inspiration for alternative approaches to religion and culture. In this respect, Russian thought may be compared with nouvelle théologie, Radical Orthodoxy, and other recent movements in Christian postsecular thought. For this reason it remains astonishingly contemporary. APOLOGY of CULTURE Religion and Culture in Russian ought edited by Artur Mrówczyński-Van Allen, Teresa Obolevitch, & Paweł Rojek “Apology of Culture is a timely volume addressing the unity of theology and culture in the conditions of extreme secularization of all forms of life.

Russia does not have world famous philosophers. We have Solovyev, Rozanov, and Berdyaev, but very few of our colleagues at philosophy departments in the United States would recognize them and fewer still would have anything to say about them. Yet, most Russian writers were avid readers of philosophy and are often considered philosophers in their own right. On what grounds can, for example, Dostoevsky, such a notorious opponent of “reason,” be considered a philosopher? “I am weak in philosophy,” Dostoevsky has written, “ but not weak in love for it; in loving it I am strong.” Dostoevsky weeps when he reads Hegel in Siberia. Can we find traces or consequences of this encounter in his texts? Or what happens when Tolstoy meticulously studies Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason or falls in love with Schopenhauer, while claiming that Hegel’s philosophy is both incomprehensible and ‘incredibly stupid’? How are these engagements reflected in his fiction? We will not be talking about intertextuality, but rather about philosophical dialogues in fictional texts that might not be immediately noticeable but are nonetheless crucial for the texts.

  • Hryhoriy Skovoroda As a Wandering Teacher and Searcher for Happiness
    140 Bamberg Conference 2006 141 Kloubert, Tetyana Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, Germany [email protected] Hryhoriy Skovoroda as a wandering teacher and searcher for happiness Abstract: This study has been undertaken to present the Ukrainian pedagogue and philosopher Hryhoriy Skovoroda (1722-1794) and his particular way of life as an adult educator. After spending round 20 years of study and research in Kiev at the famous Kiev-Mohyla-Academy and in other cities of Western Europe, he started teaching at different institutions in the Eastern Ukraine. Shortly after that he was forced to quit teaching within an institutional context because his reformatory ideas on the ideal of a man, educational theories and nonconformist theological views were not accepted in traditional circles. Thus he started his wandering life of an adult educator going from one village to another and meeting different people.The present report considers also the didactical particularities of Skovoroda's doctrine. Eager to reach various strata of society, especially the ones excluded from education, Skovoroda formulated his ideas and theories in the form of allegories and parables as well as laconic incisive fables full of exemplified symbols and typical images accessible to common people.The report depicts his life within the scope of his doctrine and his theoretical concepts. Believing in the force of the nature which assigns to each individual a right place in the world and in the society, Skovoroda stood up for „knowing oneself", for perfection of oneself in the process of permanent self-examinations during the whole life. He often characterizes the life as a theatre where each person is not only an observer but also a performer of his role(s).

  • 33 Alexey V. Malinov DISCOURSE of NATURE in GREGORY
    Alexey V. Malinov DISCOURSE OF NATURE IN GREGORY SKOVORODA’S TEACHING1 Abstract Gregory Savich Skovoroda (1724-1794) belongs both to the Russian and Ukrainian philosophy. His philosophical doctrine was only revivified at the turn of the 19th-20th centuries, which was caused by the affinity of the philosophical searches of the Silver Age (beginning of the 1890s-1922) with the religious and philosophical doctrine by Gregory Skovoroda. In the history of philosophy, Gregory Skovoroda can be consid- ered «boundary figure» marking transition from the Middle Ages to the culture of the Modernity. The article deals with the thinker’s ethical doctrine, particularly, with two interpretations of nature: essential and voluntary. Moralizing was the main aim and content of the most works by Gregory Skovoroda. Practical philosophy by Gregory Skovoroda immediately sides with his understanding of nature. Volition, wish (desire), affinity, true man are its basic categories. The main aim of Skovoroda’s moralizing is to show the way to the happy life. The essential topic of the Skovoroda’s creative work are concentrated in his ethics: ontology, or doctrine of three worlds (microcosm, mac- rocosm, symbolic world – the Bible), exegetical method of cognition and symbolism, doctrine of nature and category of affinity, the principle of self-cognition and doctrine of the «true man», doctrine of heart and anthropology, eudemonism and problem of reality of the evil and the good in the world. According to the canons of the symbolism Skovoroda criticizes material, corporeal side of the world and gives preference to its spiritual meaning. Nevertheless, Skovoroda remains a religious thinker in his practical philosophy; he meditates per religious canons.

GLOSSARY Worldview is a system of human views and principles, understanding of the surrounding world and a person’s place in it. The worldview states a person’s life position, behavior and actions. It is directly related to a human activity. Without it, the activity would not be purposeful and meaningful. Mythological worldview is a method of understanding of the world, which is typical for the early stages of social development. Mythology comes from Greek mifos meaning “tradition”, “legend” and logos which denotes a “word”, “concept”, “doctrine”. Mythology is a system of legends, tales, myths which, with the help of imagination, explain the origin and development of natural and social processes. Religious worldview is a type of worldview that considers the problem “a man and the world” through belief in the supernatural, it is a form of the worldview in which the world is explored by being separated into an “earthly” natural world, which is perceived through the senses, and “divine”.
