CONCEPTUAL ANALYSIS OF M. HEIDEGGER'S ONTOLOGICAL DISCOURSE IN THE CONTEXT OF THE PROBLEMS OF RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY

Abstract

In the article, there was made an attempt of operationalization of ideas of M. Heidegger in the methodological way for analysis of mythological and religious constants of culture; the multidimensionality of ontological discourse of M. Heidegger in relation to the problems of philosophy of culture and religion was differentiated. Within the framework of theoretical and conceptual analysis, the ontological configurations and specifications of M. Heidegger’s concept were explicated. There is postulated the idea that ontology of the myth-religious subject (consciousness) and the ontology of myth-religious culture are those dimensions, where it is possible to develop Heidegger’s discourse about being. It was showed that in the act of religious or mythological coherence, there takes place the detection of “being”, about which M. Heidegger writes. Uncoveredness of being (aletheia) in mythological religious being lets to discover new meanings in the space of interpretation of these phenomena. The ontological project of German thinker in the cognitive sense can be used as one of the vectors of the methodology of religious knowledge: the presence of the religious in the space of its being; its beingness is the goal of analysis of deep philosophy and phenomenology of religion. This ontological strategy may be complementary to dominant paradigms of modern humanitarian knowledge.
