Abstract
Shadiuk Tamara THE SUFFERABILITY IN THE CONTEXT OF IDEOLOGICAL RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT UKRAINIAN HOLINESS The article is an attempt to analyze the problem of sufferability in the context of ideological religious foundations of ancient Ukrainian holiness. It was found that the theme of sufferability in ancient Ukrainian mind is rooted in the ascetic issues of Byzantine model within which clearly proves essential reflection to overcome the inequality of man and God, and smoothing of ontological consequences of original sin and their correction by means of spiritual praxis. The ideological (mystical-ascetic) understanding of relationship between tradition of patristic, hesychasm and ancient Ukrainian tradition of religious and moral, practical idea is affirmed in article. It is revealed that a Byzantine apophaticism as a traditional background of Eastern Orthodox is ideologically close to Ukrainian mentality of Kyiv Rus period. Determinants for apophatic theology contemplation, sensual keenness and irrational, ethical accentuation of world view found expression in the hagiographical and translated literature, and in arguments of ancient Ukrainian thinkers and ascetics of XI - XII centuries (bishop Ilarion, Pheodosiy Pecherskyi, Nestor Litopysets, Volodymyr Monomakh, Klyment Smoliatych, Kyrylo Turovskyi). In order to clarify the conceptual approaches to understanding problems of sufferability in the works of these thinkers, hermeneutic and analytical methods are applied that allow finding the appropriate semantic connotations and reflecting the problem of sufferability in its relationship with the mystical and ascetic activities. Conceptual approaches of understanding the problem of sufferability are closely revealed in the way, the essence of which is the fight against the passions and patience in various manifestations of sufferability (sorrow, suffering, anguish), which are thought as a means of salvation, and the ideas of God inheritance, deification and adoration. The theme of human sufferability іn its philosophical thinking is formed in the context of an idea of the presence of the divine in the human being, the presence of the God’s providence and the possibility of overcoming the abstract opposition of human and divine by enhancing spiritual activity. However, it is found that the most substantial portion of considerations about a sufferability is understanding its boundary dimension, which, actually, overcomes (transformation) the manifestations of suffering by means study and implementation of the Christian way of life as a feat. It is emphasized that Ukrainian sage particularly peculiar reverence hagiographical literature itself, which carries the fervor of Orthodox spirituality and morality. In this sense, the expression of the relationship of two types of Orthodox Culture (Kyiv Rus and Byzantine) is hagiographic literature with its ideal active spiritual life – a feat (Kiev Pechersk patericon, Lives of Boris and Gleb). It is proved that in the ancient Ukrainian philosophy, which maintains a root connection with the ascetic Byzantine tradition, the sufferability is determined by the disclosure of the content of the main types of Orthodox asceticism as a monasticism, confession, martyrdom, which are both ranks of holiness and modifications of sufferability because they all have the content of patience of suffering, torment, pain, grief, sadness and so on. It is stated that the sufferability in its forms of suffering, torment, pain, grief, sadness, etc. is ontological basis of feat as limiting strain of human essential forces (spirit, soul, body, will, consciousness, etc.), so the forms of suffering are transformed in virtue and therefore realized the meaning of life and the high ideal of holiness.
