Abstract:
In his article Suetin describes the relationship between views on reality and development of science till the moment when classical science was created. The author analyzes idea of ancient and medieval philosophers as well as philosophers and scientists of the Modern Age comparing these ideas to the vector of scientific development. The author of the article also touches upon the question about the influence of religion and church and associated lifestyle on the development of classical science. In general, science is viewed as an essential instrument for understanding the reality, however, the classical variant of scientific tendencies is gradually shifting towards pragmatism and adoption of reality to human and society. The research is based, first of all, on ancient philosophy and religious philosophy as well a shistory and philosophy of science. Taking into account constructive factors of classical science, the author of the article analyzes the reasons and consequences of the negative tendencies of science. According to the author, the main problem of classical science is the excess rationalization and ignoration of the sensual-emotional factor and reflexion. Views on the reality do not encourage science any more but rather create obstacles for scientific development. The novelty of the research is caused by the fact that the author views science from the point of vie wof emotional and sensual reflexion. According to the author, without taking into account emotional and sensual perception of the world, science cannot perceive the reality as it is but can only provide means of pragmatic use of the reality.

About the Role of Evolutionism in Developing Knowledge about the Psyche: at the Interface

DOI: 10.7256/2454-0722.2013.5.62754 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=62754
Abstract:
In Western culture positive knowledge is confined to making reality fit scientific conceptions about mechanism
or a system as a complex combination of homo- and heterogenic elements. More than that, evolution of mechanic
theories and concepts (mechanism-organism-structure-system) quite often makes researches come to the conclusion
about evolution of mechanism as well. Thus, epistemological invariant includes mechanical theory (in the broad
meaning of the term), energetics and evolutionism, Based on the example of trans-disciplinary sphere between psychiatry,
psychoanalysis, psychology, neurology and philosophy (which is called ‘psychophilosophy’ by the author), the
author of the article shows how this epistemological variant applies to studying human psyche.
Keywords:

Genius Mistake of Friedrich Nietzsche
// Psychology and Psychotechnics.

DOI: 10.7256/2454-0722.2012.10.61616 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=61616
Abstract:
German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche was focused on the idea about the disruptiveness of human existence.
In this life all of us have to be either a man or a woman. We do not have a chance to experience the entire,
integrated experience of human existence. However, there is more to it than that. The matter is that culture is also
becoming fragmentary and kaleidic. People who belong to one cultural layer have difficulty understanding those
who belong to another cultural level. This particular article describes how Nietzsche interpreted Antique culture and
what mistakes he made in his still genius interpretation.
Keywords:
psychology, philosophy, antique times, apolloism, dionyseism, culture, myth, Hellenism, pessimism, tragedy.

Abstract:
The article studies the stages of genesis and objectives laws of functioning of the structural and functional
dichotomy between the cortex and subcortex of the human brain which determines the typical models of physiological
and social behavior of a person, ethnos, nation at various stages of the world history of human. At the same time
the author studies the evolutionary connection between genetic algorithms of psyche with environment and internal
environment. Among them special place is taken by the structural and functional differentiation of the subcortex as
well as interactions between harmonic immune and neuropsychic regulation of life-sustaining activity of an organism
and behavior of a human.

Creative Work as an Expression of a Creator’s Personality
// Psychology and Psychotechnics.
2011. ¹ 4.
P. 78-86.
DOI: 10.7256/2454-0722.2011.4.58355 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=58355
Abstract:
The author of the article believes that a creative insight represents certain qualities of a person who creates an
artwork. In order to prove it the author tries to show that the means of expression themselves reflect personality of an
artist who uses these means to realize his creative quest and to achieve a cognitive, artistic and spiritual insight. The
author analyzes the fundamental concepts which are directly related to the study of the thinking activity, in particular,
such terms as ‘information’ and ‘idea’. Based on the author, the term ‘information’ better describes the processes of
the ready or ‘ frozen’ knowledge while the term ‘idea’ more adequately renders the dynamics of finding and creating
something new.
Keywords:
psychology, creative work, genius, creativity, idea, information, corporeity, mentality, insight.

Secret Ritual Societies of Africa:
Essays on Philosophy and Psychology.

DOI: 10.7256/2454-0722.2011.3.58083 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=58083
Abstract:
Secret ritual societies of Tropical Africa are a
relict of history and at the same time, an alternative to a
modern state institution. The psychological mechanism
of regulation of traditional relations can be autonomous
and rather tolerant towards the central state institution
and municipal authorities, at the best case, but it can also
appear to be a mystifi ed foundation for the opposition,
separatism and crime. The study of these societies allows
us to specify and enrich a wide range of terms and concepts
in social anthropology and philosophy of history.

psychology, power, Africa, secret ritual societies, age brotherhoods, male and female unions, gerontocracy, totem, traditions

DOI: 10.7256/2454-0722.2009.9.56915 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=56915
Abstract:
Review: the presented work is a reviewing translation of an article by David Smillie ‘Sociobiology and Human Culture’, professor at New College of the University of South Florida. Smillie’s article can be of great interest to a professional reader since it contains a very useful idea allowing to take a new look at origination of some adaptive cognitive abilities in phylogenesis. For instance, comments of the translator show how that idea could be used in interpreting the logic of language formation.
Key words: philosophy, culture, language, information, evolution, phylogenesis, ontogenesis, origin, adaptation, species

Simulakrum.

DOI: 10.7256/2454-0722.2008.2.56073 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=56073
Abstract:
The concept of simulacrum (derived from a Lain word simulacrum meaning image, resemblance, vision) is now considered to be of the “olden times”. It goes back to the ancient world at the very least. Simulacrum is an ideal model which becomes overgrown with all kinds of imitations. Sometimes the imitation resembles the original but more often it is no more similar and from that moment on we have to compare the model and a new item.
