Mentality of the peoples of the world
29.99 €
The book by the famous Russian philosopher, culturologist and literary critic Georgy Dmitrievich Gachev (1929-2008) is devoted to the national peculiarities of cultures and civilizations. Each national integrity is considered as Cosmo-Psycho-Logos, i.e. the unity of local nature, character of the people and their way of thinking. The interdisciplinary approach makes it possible to describe the national world and national mind as a certain invariant at different levels: in everyday life, language, religion, literature and arts, natural science, etc. The first part of the book, which is a course of lectures, poses general problems and outlines the technique of researching national mentalities.
The second part gives "portraits" of national worlds: Greece, Italy, Germany, France, America, Russia, Poland, Bulgaria, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan. The third part is a seminary, a workshop that explores national images of the world in natural science and film art, and presents the experience of reconstructing Dostoevsky's Cosmos.
The book is addressed to a wide range of readers
