THE CORRELATION OF INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL CANON OF ART (based on Vyacheslav Ivanov’s philosophical and aesthetic heritage)
Journal Title: Δόξα / Докса. Збірник наукових праць з філософії та філології - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue
Abstract
The article focuses on the essence of internal and external canon of art in connection with the clearing of fundamental categories of theurgy and conciliarism. A creative personality must comply with two canons – internal («a realibus ad realiora») and external («ad realia per realiora»). The external canon is a set of artistic and aesthetic skills and rules. The internal canon consists in the acceptance of the hierarchical order of true values. The basis of the internal canon is faith. It is a way of overcoming personal principles with overpersonal principles, organization of the personality according to the ecumenical norms. The artist can be called theurgist only in case of compliance with the internal canon. Without compliance with the internal canon, the artist will be an illusionist, and art – an illusory reality, «a copy of the copy». Theurgy in art is related to the concept of conciliarism. Conciliarism, as the unity of all that exists, is based not only on mutual relations with the living, but also on mutual relations with the departed, on a living bond with the fathers. For the conciliar consciousness, there is neither the other world, nor this world, but there is some kind of wholeness, a simultaneous presence of everyone in Thou art (Ty esi). The author comes to the conclusion that theurgical art reserves for itself the ontological status and is a form of manifestation of the true reality.
