L’ingénieur Kirillov (Dostoïevski, Les Démons), nihiliste hégélien chez Alexandre Kojève et Albert Camus
Revue des etudes slaves. 2021. Vol. 92. No. 3-4. P. 599–614.
Tokarev D.
The article focuses on the place occupied by one of the heroes of Demons, Alexei Kirillov, in the philosophical reflections of Alexandre Kojève and Albert Camus. While making only a few brief allusions to Kirillov during his seminar on Hegel at E.P.H.E. in 1934-1935, Kojève analyzes the “logical suicide” of this Dostoevskian character as a major argument in favour of a radical, “nihilistic”, interpretation of the notion of absolute freedom in Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit. There are echoes of this interpretation in The Rebel (1951), where Kirillov, already referred to in The Myth of Sisyphus (1942), is placed in a negative context related to the inevitable mutation of “philosophical suicide” into “philosophical murder”. The latter can take the form of individual terrorism or state terrorism, which is absolutely inadmissible for Camus.

The connection of the poetic form with the content is investigated. The free verse, developed by W. Whitman in the second half of the 19th century, took root in the USSR with difficulty. In modern Russian poetry, the free verse, while preserving the aura of Western poetic culture, often combines gender and political meanings, broadcasting ...

Unlike many other Turkic languages, Balkar normally demonstrates obligatory subject-verb
number agreement in finite clauses with 3rd person subjects: when a subject is plural-marked,
so is the verb. However, there are cases when the subject is not overtly plural-marked, but the
verb can be. We argue for an account where such facts are not reduced to any form ...

The determination of new words and meanings is a key issue in lexical history studies. However,
common reliance on identifying “the earliest examples” can be challenged by textual complexity and subjective
disagreements. Focusing on the emergence of the FAST meaning of kuai (快), this study proposes criteria for
identifying new meanings from the perspective of the lexical system. ...

The article examines Old Russian anthroponyms with the suffix -ec-, originally conveying the meaning ‘less than X’. A diachronic corpus study of
11th–17th-century texts reveals that while this suffix lacked inherent pejorative
connotations in Old Russian sources, contextual (adherent) pejoration is clearly
observable. For pre-15th-century chronicles, two primary usage patterns are
identified—1) characters with explicit negative evaluation, and 2) ...

The story of the Tower of Babel (Gen 11:1-9) is one of the key episodes in the narratives of the Book of Genesis. In modern scholarship, various—often sharply divergent—datings of this pericope are proposed, as well as different interpretations of its place in the picture of the formation of the biblical text that was put ...

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

В докладе предлагается интерпретация философского проекта Александра Кожева через призму его центрального понятия, из которого Кожев выводит как следствие свои «политические» идеи о «конце Истории» и появлении Мудреца-Богочеловека.

Both thinkers attempt to answer the question of how the ideal of man is possible with this dialectic. However, they arrive at different answers. Kojève sees the possibility of perfection only ...
