COLLECTIONS

Philosophical Generations. Compiled and edited by Yulia V. Sineokaya. Moscow: LRC Publishing House Moscow, 2022. – 1232 pages. – ISBN 978-5-907290-83-9 (in Russian)

This book is a special document in the history of philosophy in Russia, a group self-portrait of Russian philosophers of the mid-twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, a first-person chronicle of the Moscow philosophical community, narrated by the participants of the events described. The study of philosophical generations is important for the restoration of the human context of the development of philosophy, outside of which much will remain incomprehensible. The path from generational type to texts is no less important than the familiar path from texts. The notion of the ‘philosophical generation’ is used as a key to interpreting the history of philosophy. The generational approach allows us to change the usual optics, to focus the attention of researchers on existential, personal ties within the professional community, which clarifies the mutual influences of scholars that determine the birth and development of philosophical ideas. The publication is timed to the centenary of the Institute of Philosophy, RAS, whose creation marked the beginning of the institutionalization of philosophical research in Russia, and illustrated with photographic portraits of the authors from the time of their entering the profession.

Nietzsche today. Compiled and edited by Yulia V. Sineokaya. Moscow, LRC Publishing House, 2019. – 312 pages – ISBN 978-5-907117-74 (in Russian)

The purpose of the book is to show the relevance of Friedrich Nietzsche’s legacy for the 21st century, to specify the problem area of contemporary Nietzsche studies, to identify the guidelines of the work of Russian scholars as well as to reveal Nietzsche’s role in creating the contemporary intellectual context of Russian life. All the texts included in this publication are research papers based on the public lectures which their authors delivered as an open discussion platform in the center of Moscow within the framework of the co-project of the Institute of Philosophy, RAS and Moscow library named aft er F. M. Dostoevsky. Th e collection of articles is illustrated by the portraits of the philosophers dedicated to their work and their audience. The book is intended both for specialists in history of philosophy and for the general public and is designed to help the reader get rid of the stereotypes of percepting Nietzsche’s work as the preaching of National Socialism, chauvinism, or violence, the stereotypes persisting in Russian culture since the 1930s.

The book you are holding in your hands is the story of philosophical unions whose creative work was formed with mutual love, of the unity of philosophy and Eros, of how philosophical texts are born from the intertwining of personal and creative fates. It is a chronicle of the passions of people who lived in different eras and different countries and worked in different thought paradigms. The poignant tragedy of all the life stories is overcome through joint creative work, the joy of communicating with a person of kindred spirit, of finding the meaning of life in passionate service to the chosen one and to one’s calling. No two essays, no two stories in this volume are alike. The book opens with the stories of love and work of married couples. Then follow essays about impossible love, about lovers doomed to be separated, and about those who were close and loving, but never became loved. The next body of texts is stories of forbidden love that challenges the social mores and involves a series of difficult and painful decisions lovers have to make. The book concludes with stories of spiritual love. It draws on rare archive materials, letters, personal notes, memoirs and diary jottings of philosophers. It contains fragments from academic papers never published in Russian before and letters of foreign thinkers. It is aimed both at historians of philosophy and at the broad lay audience. It may attract those who are interested in the lives of past thinkers and the history of how philosophical concepts were conceived — the “biographies” of ideas and senses. The reader will find neither solace nor instruction in the vicissitudes of the heroes’ lives, instead he will learn how love-passion, love of someone to lean on, love-rapture, love-support, love-infatuation, love-service and love-friendship shape a philosophical tradition.

Friedrich Nietzsche: Legacy and Prospects. Compiled and edited by Yulia V. Sineokaya and Ekaterina A. Poljakova. Moscow: LRC Publishing House, 2017. – 824 pages – Hardcover – ISBN 978-5-94457-311-7 (in Russian and English)

The trilingual collection of articles focuses on the problems of Nietzsche studies at the beginning of the 21st century.

The book is intended both for specialists in history of philosophy and for a wide range of readers and aims to promote communication among intellectuals of different countries.

Open lectures of the philosophers at the city library gave a clear answer to a question: "Why philosophy is necessary for society and what is practical outcome from it?" The success of the project shows that philosophy is necessary not only for the closed circle of intellectuals, but for all people. For the experts of the Institute it is important that their work, knowledge and research experience are appreciated not only by their colleagues, but also by non-professionals. Philosophers are involved not only in search of truth, but they also help people to find out the sense of existence and support them in everyday life. The topics that were presented at the library have been investigated by scientists for many years and became the subject of several professional discussions and disputes. The project became an important event in the life of the Institute of philosophy. It has been launched and functioned thanks to the enthusiasm of researchers on a voluntary basis and was carried out without any grant, material encouragement and rating points. The initiator and head of the project is Yulia Sineokaya. This collection was gathering all generations of researchers of the Institute. The texts are followed by the photo portraits of the philosophers at work and their listeners – the faces of modern philosophical Moscow.

The topic of this article is the principle of non-vengeance, or a denial of the spirit of revenge [der Geist der Rache], and how it is conceptualized in Friedrich Nietzsche and Lev Shestov. Both thinkers make this principle central to their philosophical discussions. However, they have different motives and ways of realizing the principle in their theories. Nietzsche’s approach is manifested in his idea of the eternal recurrence, while for Shestov, the principle is rooted in his interpretation of the biblical myth of “repealing the past evil.” Nietzsche defines vengeance as the will to repeal a past misdeed. Only our own will, turning toward the past and reevaluating itself, can free us from the spirit of revenge. Shestov goes beyond Nietzsche, transforming a moral problem into a theodicy problem. Truth is in the power of an Almighty Creator, who is capable of repealing something that has existed before. The absolute freedom of an all-powerful God who by his own volition can at once repeal a past evil shall solve the problem of vengeance. This article attempts to show the evolution of the two philosophers’ views on the problem of vengeance and non-vengeance, putting those views in the context of the key events in the thinkers’ lives.

• Dispute on Belief, Culture and the Meaning of Life (A Correspondence from Two Corners by Vyacheslav Ivanov and Mikhail Gershenzon), Philosophical Journal, Moscow, 1 (9), 2016, pages 61–79. (in Russian)

This article is devoted to one of the most important documents of culture from the beginning of 20th century A correspondence from two corners by Vyacheslav Ivanov and Mikhail Gershenzon. The small book consisting of mere 12 letters was published by St-Petersburg publishing house Alkonost in 1921. It tells about the crisis of humanity, the revaluation of values of European intellectual tradition, the meaning of life and morals. The twentieth century which opened with wars and revolutions put before intellectuals the goal of overcoming the gap between cultural tradition and personal creativity. Both European and Russian thinkers were giving sharp critique of classical culture which, according to them, had the World War as the logical consequence of its development. Ivanov and Gershenzon, despite their very different approaches to the problem of antinomy between personal creativity and freedom on the one hand, and cultural tradition on another hand, agreed on their vision of the problem. For both of them culture was a phenomenon that needs a moral, social, esthetic and religious justification. In the West, it had been Nietzsche who first raised this problem; in Russia, it became one of the central subjects of philosophical debates during the Russian Religious Renaissance at the turn of 19th and 20th centuries. Ivanonv’s optimistic attitude towards cultural heritage was based on religious belief. Mikhail Gershenzon defended the autonomy of individual creativity against the automatic worship of centuries-old cultural tradition that falsifies life. Gershenzon argued that creative individuality alone could become the solid foundation of any authentic culture in the future. The author proceeds to discuss the nature of friendship between the poet-philosopher and the historian of Russian social thought as well as the evolution of views shared by either of them, and describes the intellectual and social atmosphere around the composition of the Correspondence. The article also provides an outline of public disputes which followed after the publication of the Correspondence.
