Eternal questions of Russian literature.

The eternal questions of Russian literature are the questions of the relationship between good and evil, temporal and eternal, faith and truth, past and present. Why are they called eternal? Because they do not cease to excite mankind for centuries. But the main, I would say, the key questions of all Russian literature were the following: “What is the basis of the life of a Russian person? How to save your soul, not let it die in this far from perfect world?

L.N. helps us answer these questions. Tolstoy in his moralizing "folk" stories. One of them is “How people live”.

The hero of the story, the poor shoemaker Semyon, finds himself in a situation where it is necessary to make a moral choice: to pass by a strange, naked, freezing person or to help him? He wanted to pass, but the voice of conscience does not allow him to do so. And Simon brings him home. And there, Matryona's wife, dissatisfied, crushed by poverty, thinking only that "there was only a piece of bread left," attacked her husband with reproaches. However, after the words of Semyon: “Matryona, is there no God in you ?!” “Suddenly her heart sank.” She took pity on the wanderer who got into trouble, gave her last bread, trousers and her husband's shirt. The shoemaker and his wife not only helped the helpless man, but left him to live. The one saved by them turns out to be an angel whom God sent to earth to find answers to the questions: “What is in people? What are they not given? How are people alive? Observing the behavior of Semyon, Matryona, a woman who took in orphans, the angel comes to the conclusion: “... it seems only to people that they are alive by taking care of themselves, and that they are alive by love alone.”

And what is not given to people? We get an answer to this question when a gentleman appears on the pages of the story, who came to order boots, and received bare shoes, since “it is not given to any person to know - he needs boots for the living or bare shoes for the dead by evening”

He is alive for now. He behaves arrogantly, speaks rudely, emphasizing his wealth and significance. In his description, a detail attracts attention - a hint of spiritual death: "like a person from another world." Deprived of feelings of love and compassion, the master is already dead during his lifetime. He did not save his soul, and by the evening his useless life ended.

According to Tolstoy, one must love "not in word or language, but in deed and truth." Semyon and Matryona, his heroes, live according to moral laws, which means they have a living soul. With their love, they save the life of a stranger to them, therefore, they save their soul, their life. I think that without kindness, mercy, compassion, there can be no love.

Let us also recall Yaroslavna from the Tale of Igor's Campaign. When she cries, she does not think about herself, does not feel sorry for herself: she wants to be close to her husband and his warriors in order to heal their bloody wounds with her love.

Our literature has always paid great attention to the question of time. How are past and present connected? Why do people so often turn to the past? Maybe because it gives him the opportunity to deal with the problems of the present, to prepare himself for Eternity?

The theme of thoughts about life, uncontrollably leaving, took a prominent place in the lyrics of A.S. Pushkin. In his poem “I visited again ..” he speaks of the general law of life, when everything changes, the old leaves, and the new one takes its place. Let's pay attention to the words "on the border of the grandfather's possessions." The adjective "grandfather" evokes the thought of past generations. But at the end of the poem, speaking of the "young grove", the poet remarks: "But let my grandson hear your welcoming noise ...". This means that reflections on the course of life lead to thoughts about the change and connection of generations: grandfathers, fathers, grandchildren.

In this regard, the image of three pines is very significant, around which the “young grove” grew. The old men guard the young shoots crowding under their shadow. They may be sad that their time is running out, but they cannot but rejoice at the growing shift. That is why the words of the poet sound so truthful and natural: “Hello, young, unfamiliar tribe!” It seems that Pushkin is addressing us through the centuries.

A.P. also writes about the connection of times. Chekhov in his story "Student". The action in it begins on the eve of the feast of the Resurrection of Christ. A student of the Theological Academy Ivan Velikopolsky goes home. He is cold, painfully hungry. He thinks that severe poverty, ignorance, hunger, oppression are qualities inherent in Russian life both in the past and in the future, that from the fact that another thousand years will pass, life will not get better. Suddenly Ivan saw the fire of a fire and two women near it. He warms himself next to them and tells the gospel story: on the same cold, terrible night they led Jesus to the high priest for trial. The Apostle Peter, who loved him, waited and just warmed himself by the fire. And then he denied Jesus three times. And when he realized what he had done, he wept bitterly.

His story moved ordinary peasant women to tears. And Ivan suddenly realized that the event that took place 29 centuries ago is related to the present, to these women, to himself and to all people. The student comes to the conclusion that the past is connected with the present by an uninterrupted chain of events arising from one another. It seemed to him that he touched one end and trembled the other. And this means that not only the horrors of life, but also the truth, beauty has always existed. They continue to this day. I also understood something else: only truth, goodness and beauty direct human life. An inexpressibly sweet expectation of happiness seized him, and life now seemed wonderful and full of lofty meaning.

To the lyrical hero of the poem A.S. Pushkin and the hero of the story A.P. Chekhov "Student", Ivan Velikopolsky, revealed the involvement of their personal lives in everything that happened in the world of the past and the present. Glorious domestic names A.S. Pushkin, L.N. Tolstoy, A.P. Chekhov are also links of a single continuous chain of time. They live here with us now and will live. We really need them in our difficult time, when people often put the material above the moral, when many have forgotten what love, compassion, and mercy are. Russian literature from ancient times reminds us of the commandments of our ancestors: love each other, help the suffering, do good and remember the past. This will help protect the soul from temptations and help keep it clean and bright. What could be more important in life? I think nothing.

ETERNAL QUESTIONS OF HUMAN LIFE

Every person at some point in his life asks questions: why do I live? is there a destiny? how free am I in my decisions and actions? Are there laws that determine the development of the world? Who or what determines these laws?

To an even greater extent, each person is interested in those problems that relate to his position in this world.

Is man mortal or immortal? How can one understand the immortality of human existence? Can a person learn about his destiny in this world or is it inaccessible to him? What can a person know? What is truth? How to distinguish it from delusion and lies?

Every person is also concerned with moral problems. What is conscience, honor, duty, responsibility and justice? Is it possible to clearly distinguish between good and evil? Where does evil come from in human actions and world history? Is it possible to achieve such a state in the development of mankind when evil will disappear and the “epoch of universal love and harmony” will come?

People ask questions: why life, why death, what is the meaning of pain, why do we grow old, why do things happen to us that happen? Why does suffering exist, why can a person move from suffering to joy, from joy to suffering, which carries him, like the wind, from one state to another? Why do fears arise, why doubts?


When such questions are born in a person, he is forced either to look for answers, or to continue to live in constant anxiety, like a person who has put on a blindfold and does not want to see anything. When there are ambiguities and question marks, there is no better way than to keep formulating questions leading to the search for an answer.

When Socrates said: “I only know that I know nothing,” he did not say this in order to put up with this state of affairs. It was both a recognition that he did not know much, and a desire for further search, the acquisition of knowledge: "I will learn more, because I need more ...".

Centuries pass, but a person continues to pose all the same questions. The art of living consists in trying to answer these questions day by day in order to understand the meaning of pain and suffering, joy and love, the meaning of one's own life and the life of mankind.

Philosophers in their theories, like ordinary people, answer these questions in very different ways. This variety of ideas allows everyone to find in philosophy his own, understandable, consonant with him, his needs and interests.

There are no definitive, only correct answers to philosophical questions, because each appeal to them, comprehension of what is already known becomes, as a result, one's own, in a new solution to this or that issue.

Philosophy is the oldest, but ever-renewing form of thought, a theoretically developed, logically developed type and level of outlook. Philosophy is a great art, a great science, a special, deep approach to life. This is an approach in which a person does not live blindly, but with open eyes and an open heart, is not afraid to penetrate the mysteries that surround us, is not afraid to peer into the Universe and ask questions about its mysteries, about the mysteries of humanity and about ourselves.

Eternal philosophical questions that determine the nature of scientific thought and the meaning of artistic imagination appear in the minds of people in the form of new (actual) problems in the formation of sometimes mystical hypotheses, but more often - rigorous scientific theories. These are the following questions: what is the essence of the world; to what extent and how the natural and social world can be known; how can you convert it; what values ​​should be guided by; what future awaits humanity; what is the person himself as Homo sapiens and as a person. In the proper philosophical language, these are questions of ontology, epistemology, methodology, praxeology, axiology, philosophical anthropology and futurology. They, being an intellectual condition for the philosophical understanding of the mysteries of the Universe and at the same time a key factor in the formation of social consciousness, are mainly manifested in everyday life as a kind of concrete historical (epochal) self-consciousness of a particular people, humanity as a whole.

Today, new philosophical constructions or models of reality open the way for the researcher to completely different possibilities for comprehending the environment, promising a rapprochement with the humanitarian aspirations of man. At the same time, the influence of the subject on the studied object of nature is now interpreted in a new way. The deepest interconnectedness of natural phenomena and human cognition gave rise to a new holistic (Greek holos - whole) image of research thought, which includes many scientific ideas and social and moral principles and ideals. Life and practice fill ideas and ideals with deep philosophical meaning. They become a special kind of universal-reflective attitudes for a volumetric (holistic) awareness of a person of his life activity. Therefore, a well-known aphorism, attributed to almost all the sages and the first philosophers of Ancient Greece, was entrenched in philosophy: “Know thyself.” It turns out that philosophy, as a unique transformer of social consciousness, already at the very initial stage of its formation, was affirmed as a special ideological reflection of the human mind on nature and society, on the place and role of man in them.

Awareness of the meaning of philosophy as the self-awareness of an epoch or society is one of the most complex and controversial ideas for rational understanding. The very fact of the philosophical self-awareness of an epoch, of society, does not lend itself to strictly logical analysis and even “resists” all attempts to enclose it within the structural boundaries of scientific theories, concepts about society. It can be said without exaggeration: although the role of social ideas and ideals in philosophy has increased markedly, the question of what social being is in a strictly scientific sense remains open and, perhaps, problematically more pointed than ever before. Back at the beginning of the 20th century, the German philosopher-sociologist Max Weber (1864-1920) called the transition of social consciousness (thinking) from prehistory to true history "the rationalization of knowledge". This remark of his was received by the philosophical and scientific community of the world with benevolent unanimity. The rationalistic approach in the philosophical theory of knowledge of society has received new semantic grounds that justify its place and authority in the historical and social sphere of cultures, in particular in science and medicine.

Today there is a transition from confrontation to the optimization of the common efforts of the natural and human sciences, studying the various functional structures of society. Philosophy and sciences become heuristic phenomena of the single impulse of humanity towards the true knowledge of society, the place and role of man in it. Philosophy turns into a generator of mental activity in almost all studies of social connections and relations. At the same time, being the collective conciliar mind of scientists from various fields of scientific knowledge, it is the most important factor in the “health” of science itself. Philosophy “feeds” scientific thought with new ideas and moral and ethical ideals. Science itself is in dire need of a special philosophical method of abstract-theoretical thinking, a dialectical method of analyzing reality, a speculative search for the source of nature's self-development. There is, one might say, a natural synthesis of philosophy, science, morality, medicine as a manifestation of dialectics in cognition.

Since the time of Hellenistic philosophy, dialectics has received fairly wide recognition in intellectual circles. True, in different years this idea was understood and used in different ways. In our time, dialectics appears as a mental direction in the knowledge of the world and human society, which deals with the fundamental philosophical idea of ​​self-development. G. Hegel's thoughts, thanks to the speculativeness (lat. specula-tio - mental contemplation) of his rational-critical mind, constituted in fact the first scientific and philosophical doctrine that reveals the fundamental essence of self-development in the comprehension of things. G. Hegel, in contrast to the old metaphysics, called his philosophy dialectical, or true, metaphysics, "the science of sciences." Nothing but this type of philosophy, according to the thinker, can form the idea of ​​an integral understanding of social life on Earth, the value self-determination of a person.

The philosophical ideology of dialectics today permeates, in fact, the entire intellectual product of the human mind.- a holistic comprehension by him of being in its inexhaustible diversity. This is a kind of ideology of "limiting cognitive problems", when dialectics becomes the lot of all scientists. In other words, we are talking about such powerful theoretical-rational abstract reflections of scientists that unfold historically and receive a clear ideological and thematic articulation inherent only in them, thereby forming an internal connection between truly scientific thought and creative practice.

K. Popper, raising the question of the genesis of all scientific ideas, proposed to consider dialectics as a mental reservoir of philosophical ideas and ideas from which new scientific concepts and bold hypotheses arise. He believed that the highest level is the level of philosophical creativity- this is, of course, the lot of genius scientists who think dialectically, that is, boldly overthrow the established theoretical canons, sometimes even undermining the foundations of fundamental sciences. Today, however, they talk and write more about synergetics, which has become fashionable. It is believed that it provokes essentially a fundamentally new philosophical (evolutionary and holistic) vision of the world. Based on the material of synergetic research (synergetics sees the universality of self-organization of natural phenomena, including inorganic ones) of the interactions of low-intensity electromagnetic radiation of the millimeter range with living matter, it was concluded that, along with nuclear and molecular physics, there is actually a physics of the living, containing synergetic and quantum principles.

Physicists have discovered amazing things. In addition to the known types of energy that a person receives from the environment, there is another special type - informational. All living beings are in the field of constant influence of information energy. It consists of a huge number of components: electromagnetic, thermal, acoustic and other waves, flows of microscopic corpuscular particles. And each of them carries the information it needs to living matter. Recently, the attitude towards synergetics of philosophers, scientists themselves, especially in the field of medicine, is moving from an apologetic stage to a critical one (in the Kantian sense). The reason for this is the ongoing difficult process of critical rethinking of the experience of many years of harsh domination of dialectical materialist methodology in the natural sciences and, of course, in the medical sciences. Without denying the dialectical-materialist methodology in cognition, one cannot but notice other effective scientific methodologies. Philosophical knowledge allowed scientists to develop a new concept called morphogenetic synergy. It has absorbed all the latest achievements in physics, chemistry, cybernetics, biology, and medicine.

Philosophical physicians are well aware that the diversity and multifunctionality of the systems of the human body, manifesting themselves in behavior, goes back directly to the physiology of the human brain. It has long been noted that, for example, in the right hemisphere of the brain, the tendency to an irrational way of processing received or obtained information about the world dominates, and in the left, on the contrary, to a rational way. The following circumstance is very interesting: when various types of information about the world, society, and the person himself are processed differently by the cerebral hemispheres of the human brain, a voluminous ideal image of a holistic reality is created - synergetic knowledge (gr. synergeia - cooperation). Such knowledge indicates the interaction of various potencies or types of energy in the integral world of nature. The openness and complexity of the living world are associated with nonlinearity and instability, and spontaneous activity suggests the versatility of possible ways of its development. Therefore, the living world appears in the minds of people not as a mechanism, but as a complex organism that obeys the laws of nonlinearity and self-organization. The philosophy of the synergetics of the living is formed on the basis of generalization of the achievements that already exist in such types of knowledge as scientific, medical, religious.

The main problems of philosophy called the highest, essential, most important questions of man about the world and about himself. At different times, the nature and methods of posing questions varied. In table. 1.2 shows the main problem areas, originally explored in different eras and by different philosophers.

Table 1.2. The main problems of philosophy

All these questions are from the category of "eternal" and open. Each of them can be clarified in a number of more detailed, but no less significant questions, such as: o What is being? -> Where did it all come from? o What is knowledge? -> What are the limits of human knowledge? o What is a person? -" What is the sense of life? o What is society? -> How to make society fair? o What is value? -> What matters in life?

Of course, philosophy is not limited to "eternal problems." It has already been said that philosophy reflects time with all its peculiarities and contradictions. Therefore, philosophy is "doomed" to deal with modernity. Here is a sample list of the most topical issues, considered at international philosophical congresses and conferences of recent years:

O philosophy of politics and law- international law, democracy, human rights, international order, war and justice, terrorism, inequality, poverty, globalization;

O philosophy of language and literature- the language of science, meaning, understanding of the text, the expression of truth, artificial languages;

O applied ethical and philosophical questions- problems of abortion, euthanasia, human cloning, genetic engineering; death penalty; animal rights, nature values; scientist's responsibility;

O philosophy of virtuality- Internet, virtual worlds, computerization, artificial intelligence;

O feminist philosophy- women's rights, emotions and feelings, criticism of logic;

about history of philosophy - application of traditional theories to the present.

One of the important questions for understanding the development of philosophical knowledge is the question traditionally called "basic question" of philosophy. It sounds like this: “What is primary - matter or consciousness?” The world has both material manifestations (sensible physical objects) and ideal ones (knowledge, ideas, thoughts, emotions). What is decisive? Depending on the answer to this question, philosophers are divided into materialists and idealists.

materialists believe that only matter really exists. It is completely independent of our consciousness. Moreover, consciousness is dependent, secondary and is a property of matter itself. Thus, human consciousness cannot exist without the brain as a complex material organ. Belief in the existence of special entities independent of matter - the soul, the spirit - is an unscientific prejudice.

idealists*, on the contrary, they believe that only our consciousness can be considered the only reliable reality, and what is called material things is only its manifestation.

1 Do not confuse philosophical idealism with idealism in behavior (dreaminess and naive beautiful soul).

niya. Who can reliably prove that the things we see are real and not mere appearances? So, a person considers everything that he sees in a dream to be real, but the dream world is illusory and created by consciousness. Maybe all life is a dream, an illusion, a mirage, and we are simply not able to “wake up” and break through to real reality (according to objective idealists) or there is no reality at all, and everything exists only in our minds (according to subjective idealists)?

For those who have seen The Matrix (1999, directed by the Wachowski brothers), it is easy enough to understand the concept of objective idealism. To understand the ideas of subjective idealists, we recommend paying attention to the classic play by P. Calderon with the symbolic title Life is a Dream (1636).

dualists adhere to the third point of view, according to which matter and consciousness are considered as two independent sides of reality. For dualism, in fact, there are no problems regarding the answer to the "basic question of philosophy", since the question itself becomes impossible: there is nothing secondary in the world. Both matter and consciousness are equal and interconnected beginnings. Dualism in philosophy is not very popular - it moves away from the struggle, which is the driving force of philosophical thought. In this respect, both materialism and idealism have a right to exist: in their eternal dispute, arguments are honed, new ideas are born, and ultimately philosophy develops.

The following two questions are often cited as "philosophical": "Which came first - the chicken or the egg" and "Does the sound of a tree falling in the forest be heard if no one is nearby?" Although both questions are not, strictly speaking, philosophical questions, for the first one it can be assumed that, according to the theory of evolution, there was an egg in the beginning. In the second question, it is necessary to note the ambiguity of the word "sound". These are wave vibrations and human auditory sensations. Then sound will exist in the first sense and will not exist in the second. As far as philosophical questions are concerned, an idealist philosopher might ask in this regard: "Is there a forest at all if there is no one in it?"

The name "basic question of philosophy" (given by the German philosopher Friedrich Engels) is rather arbitrary.

According to many modern philosophers, the main question is about a just society, about the values ​​of a person or his destiny. Thus, the French philosopher Albert Camus wrote:

To decide whether or not life is worth living is to answer the fundamental question of philosophy. Everything else - whether the world has three dimensions, whether the mind is guided by nine or twelve categories - is secondary.

There are also reasons for Camus's question, although the answer is intuitively obvious: “it is worth it” (the philosopher himself comes to this conclusion). But how to live this life?

Thus, philosophical problems are diverse - their only common feature is that none of the sciences, except philosophy itself, can give detailed answers to them. The choice of the main problem is a personal matter for every thinking person. Philosophy suggests that in search of the essence, everyone should be guided by their own mind, and the books and sayings of famous philosophers are only means of forming one's own opinion, not a set of truths for all occasions.

Our brain is an amazing tool for learning and a real gift for those who know how to use it. This extremely powerful computer on our shoulders is capable of solving problems that many modern and powerful computers simply cannot do, especially when it comes to creativity. However, in order for our brain to work effectively, it needs regular exercise, which means we need to give our brain difficult tasks from time to time. And it seems that this is not a problem, but what if you are just too lazy to solve problems and do not want to do anything? In this case, you can force your brain to think by asking yourself philosophical questions.

Perhaps we should start with the main questions that interested many philosophers of antiquity and continue to excite many thinking people in our time.

Global questions of philosophy:

  • Who am I?
  • Does God exist?
  • Why does everything exist?
  • How real is the world?
  • What comes first - consciousness or matter?
  • Does free will exist?

The main thing is not to hold back your imagination, do not create unnecessary boundaries for it from your beliefs, because what can exist in our world very often goes beyond what we are generally capable of imagining. I wish you success!
