Philosophy as an event
The article is devoted to research of self-contradictory specificity of philosophy which, aspiring to the comprehension of being, does not reduce it to achievement of separate truths, but goes into gnosological, ontological, axiological and praxeological levels of consideration of the obtained knowledge of the world and human being. The reference to a historical-philosophical heritage, beginning from the Antiquity and at the end of works of modern philosophers, enables the author to retrace the deep tie of philosophy with mythology and a word, to determine an integrative component of philosophical views in the form of the metaphysical attitude to being and from these positions to try to find answers to the eternal problems, concerning possibilities of achievement of truth in cognition of being, essence of good, beauty and justice, origin and destination of human being.
