In the World of Elusive Meanings — report by Mikhail Blumenkrants

On February 15, 2022, the historian of philosophy and culture Mikhail A. Blumenkrantz made a presentationon the Laboratory seminar 'West and East: Universalism of Culture'

Mikhail A. Blumenkrantz presented the continuation of his reflections on the theme of the world as a symbolic reality. The first report on this topic was read at the laboratory's seminar in 2019 (you can get acquainted with the first speech at the link).
Discussing the nature of the reality in which we exist, the role of symbolic forms that create the optics of our existence, the problem of spiritual substitutions, the speaker tried to answer questions about where to look for a way out of these problems, what is 'the betrayal of intellectuals', and what is behind the feeling of resentment, the search for justice and the culture of denial?
