AESTHETIC IDEAL IN PERCEPTION OF TEACHERS OF "ORTHODOX CULTURE"
Absract. The article analyzes the results of the studies carried out by the author in 2009-2017 in CentralRussia, Ural, Volga, Far Eastern, Khanty-Mansiysk and Yamalo-Nenets regions, as well as in Belarus, Ukraine and Kirghizia on the problem of understanding by teachers of "Orthodox culture" the essence and main features of the aesthetic ideal of the Orthodox tradition. Attention is drawn to the dissociation of the declared confessional self-identification and the perception of the value-semantic foundations of this ideal. The author believes that the solution to the problem will be a change in the nature of teacher training for the integration of Orthodox culture into the educational and upbringing space of a modern school.
