M.M. Bakhtin (1895-1975) is a Russian philosopher whose work is adjacent to the post-symbolist period of the Silver Age culture. Bakhtin presented his teaching as a system that had the character not of abstract metaphysics, but of moral philosophy. The main category of his moral ontology was the concept of "being-event", to which the "responsible act" of a person was equated | the epistemological problem was solved on the basis of the intuition of the “participant”, i.e. attached to the being of thinking ("On the philosophy of action"). In general, Bakhtin's teaching was originally thought to be syncretic - including ethics and aesthetics, and the scientist himself in the last period of his work was defined as philosophical anthropology.The publication includes philosophical works of M. M. Bakhtin of different years (end of 1910 -x - early 1970s). They reflect various stages in the development of Bakhtin's philosophical idea - from moral "metaphysics" to hermeneutics. The philosophy of human existence, developed by the thinker throughout his life, is presented by these articles and treatises as a unique philosophical and philological synthesis. The publication is equipped with the necessary scientific apparatus and is intended for an in-depth understanding of Bakhtin's views.The publisher's layout of the book has been saved in PDF A4 format.
