Thaddeus Zielinski, Vyacheslav Ivanov, and the “Slavic Renaissance”
The article examines the concept of the “Slavic Renaissance” proposed by the classical scholar and philosopher of culture Thaddeus Zielinski. It is based on the idea of the beneficial and continuous influence of the heritage of ancient Greece on the cultures of modern Europe. Zielinski points out that the history of European culture (of which he considered Slavic culture to be a part) has experienced a series of revivals in its development, cause…
Eos and Tithonus
The article discusses the philosophical implications of the Greek myth of Eos and Tithonus. In relation to different versions of this myth, the opinions of various authors regarding the problem of finding and maintaining individual identity in the conditions of bodily metamorphoses, as well as the problems of aging (gradual loss of the body and memory) are considered. The question is raised about the body of the mythological hero and the means of…
Classical Studies as Cultural Philosophy
The article discusses the concept of three “Renaissances”, as outlined by Tadeusz Zielinski in the essay “The Ancient World in the Poetry of Apollon Maykov" (1899). By “Renaissances” Zielinski meant the periodic appeals of a particular European culture to the ancient legacy and, at the same time, the beneficial cultural consequences of such appeals. According to Zielinski, two renaissances of antiquity have already taken place: the “Italian” and …
Art, Science and Paideia in Aristides Quintilianus’ De Musica
The study aims to clarify the meaning of the philosophical views of Aristides Quintilianus, presented in his treatise “On Music”: concepts from the field of ontology, epistemology, psychology, anthropology, ethics are discussed in the context of theories developed by his contemporaries. Aristides’ arguments concerning the benefits of arts and sciences (and, accordingly, music) are discussed. It is pointed out that the “accuracy” that Aristides re…
The Upside Down Man of Plato’s Timaeus in the Apocryphal Martyrdom of Peter and Martyrdom of Philip
The study offers a hermeneutic analysis of the apocryphal “Martyrdom of the Apostle Peter” (MPt). We argue that the main idea of Peter’s monologue from the cross is borrowed from Plato’s Timaeus (43e4–8), which describes a man who is placed upside down and thus perceives his right as left and considers truth a lie. MPt interpreted this account in the light of the Old Testament narrative about the expulsion of the first man Adam from paradise and …
