Ontology and Language in the Context of the Linguistic Turn

Autors:

Abstract: 

The correlation between the linguistic turn and the turn to ontology is analyzed. The ideal of “pure mind” in classical philosophy is corresponded to epistemological and methodological orientation of philosophical thought, and the turn to language in the philosophy of the ХХ–ХXI centuries is followed by the turn to ontology. It is proved that, despite the contrast, Russian and western philosophy of language have convergence points in the sphere of ontology. Both Russian and western philosophy of language reveal the bases of ontology in the Word, sounding or written, and in the energy of sounds or combination of signs. It is shown that such intellectual traditions are kriptomythological and have roots in the common tradition of Abrahamic religions. The word which was “at the beginning” can be interpreted as written (Judaism and Islam). And the Word which was “at the beginning” can be interpreted as told, – the sounding word bearing in itself the energy of creation (Orthodoxy). “The deconstruction of deconstruction” of the concept of J. Derrida is undertaken. It is shown how the ontology of the post-metaphysical writing can be transformed into the ontology of the energies of Russian imiaslavie. Also the relationship between two turns is analyzed: the linguistic turn in modern philosophy and the turn “from the mechanism to an organism” in modern scientific outlook.
