SOPHIA AS A SYMBOLIC FORMULA OF THE EURASIAN COLLEGIALITY IN RUSSIAN RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY
Abstract
The background of the article is connected with the correlation of the image-concept of Sophia as a symbol of the unity of the world in culture with the idea of Eurasianism as collegiality in Russian religious philosophy of the 19th-20th centuries. The purpose of the study is a comparative analysis of the signature formula «Sophia» in the author's receptions of collegiality in Russian religious and philosophical thought through the prism of the idea of Eurasianism as the archetype of the East Slavic Logos. The archetype of Eurasian collegiality as a structural element of world unity is traced from implicit historical origins in the Old Russian Middle Ages to the explication of this concept in the New Time. Research hypothesis - substantiation of the assumption that the Eurasian idea of collegiality as an idea of synthesis of the West and the East goes back in its cultural and historical roots to the archetype of Sophia and undergoes certain transformations from premodern through modern and postmodern to neo-modern, without losing its theoretical relevance and applied significance as a mechanism for integrating traditionalism, universalism and personalism. Research methods: dialectic method, structural and functional analysis, phenomenological description, hermeneutic interpretation, philosophical comparative studies, universal ethics of dialogue and semiotics of culture. The result of the research is a historical tracing of the evolution of sophiology from the times of Ancient Rus through the Age of Enlightenment to late modernity in the context of collegiality of Eurasianism, symbolically embodied in the image-concept of Sophia in Russian religious philosophy with the typology of its main features (messianism, providentialism, mystery, Westernism vs Slavophilism as a dialectical unity). Conclusions: interpretation of the concept of Eurasianism as a manifestation of the Russian religious and philosophical idea of collegiality, and the interpretation of idea of collegiality as a manifestation of the symbolic phenomenon of Sophia, which removes the contradictions of illusory dichotomies (universalism - particularism, modernism - traditionalism, theism - atheism, etc.) in favor of harmonious unity of the world of the West and the East on the civilizational, social, cultural and mental levels.
