Kantor, V. K. Silver Age: Culture Against Civilization or Victory
of Archaic Meanings
Abstract:
According to the author of the article, Silver
Age showed that by restoring mythological pagan meanings
culture could actually destroy civilization which has been
slowly and heavily built by advanced force of people. That
artistic epoch was the resonse to introduction of huge massses
into the historical field of freedom. Old systems of hominization,
humaniziation and civilization failed – and the artistic system
stepped in taking people back to a pre-civilized stage with real
mysteries and human sacrifices in an effort to help masses
deal with all the freedom that came upon them. It was as if
humankind went through its spiritual development again and
came to prevenative mechanisms of civilization again, but
this time masses could deal with it. At the end of the article the
author concludes that after cataclysms in the 20th century all
Europe including Russia are coming back to the renaissance
paragirm of history (i.e. paradigm that is based on persoality).
Keywords:
cultural studies, history, culture, civiliza tion, cultural renaissance, spiritial elite, Silver Age, historical field of freedom, aristic epoch, the masses.
