The act of the birth of the new world in the russian literature of the first third of the XX century: religious and philosophical concept of Eurasians

Abstract

In article in a wide historico-literary context the idea of the birth of the new world in a subsoil historically "doomed to death" old world order is considered key for Eurasians, the public and philosophical direction of the Russian thought of the first third of the XX century. Special attention is paid to the ethic and ontologic doctrine of Eurasians which was conformable to spiritual and moral searches of the Russian writers which, without belonging formally to Eurasians, in many respects shared their moods, conducted intense dialogue about the fate of Russia, her special mission in the world, about a special way, about synthesis of Europe and Asia. Revolutionary events of 1917 not only in philosophical journalism, but also in art creativity metaphorically correspond to the act of the birth which image in poetry and prose of the 1920th years becomes extremely mifo-suggestive, sated with cultural hints and reminiscences. In the context of eurasianism the image of revolution of spirit in world-wide and historical and religious and metaphysical measurement is analyzed. The universal and space pathos of revolutionary literature at all its externally godless orientation carries not atheistic, but the religious-prophetic character (V.V. Mayakovsky and S.A. Yesenin's poem) in many respects coinciding with understanding of revolution the Russian Eurasians.
