The philosophy of A. A. Potebnja’s language and the symbolic cognition of V. Bryusov: polyphony of ideas

Journal Title: ИДЕИ. ФИЛОСОФСКО СПИСАНИЕ - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

The author made a conceptual reconstruction of symbolic artistic cognition of V. Brusov. The complexity of the research is determined by the fact that the philosophical views of A. Potebnja and V. Bryusov are fragmentary and dispersed in literary and critical articles or reproduced in figurative and poetic form. The author carries out their philosophical systematization. The study reveals the historical and genealogical relationship of the Russian symbolism and West-European philosophical and artistic tradition and defines certain aspects of impact on the part of the Ukrainian and Russian scientist-slavist A. A. Potebnja (his doctrine of the “inner form” of the word). Literary and criticism as well as poetry of A. A. Potebnja, V. Bryusov and A.Belyi are the source-base of the research. The general philosophical problems such as the relationship of language and reality, language and myth, features of artistic cognition and symbol were analyzed. The findings contribute to the deepening of our understanding of the European historical and philosophical process and its impact on modern nonconformist movements. The influence of Russian symbolism on the various modern subcultures and alternative religions is relevant and interesting perspective for the further study of this problem
