Phenomenon of Russian Philosophy: Influence of Philosophical Trends on Cultural Development and Worldview of the Russian People

The article analyzes the phenomenon of Russian philosophy and its impact on cultural development, as well as the formation of the Russian people’s worldview. The relevance of this research stems from the fact that in modern scientific discourse, Russia’s philosophical heritage is considered a unique source of spiritual, moral, artistic, and social ideas capable of influencing global cultural processes. The novelty of this work lies in the comprehensive examination of not only classical religious-philosophical concepts (Slavophilism, Hesychasm), but also secular trends (Westernism, Populism, Revolutionary-Democratic Thought). Within the framework of the article, dominant themes and key problems of Russian philosophy are described, the mechanisms of influ-ence of philosophical doctrines on the educational system and various spheres of culture ‒ literature, art, and science ‒ are examined. Particular attention is paid to preserving the continuity of ideas from the pre-revolutionary period to the 21st century, as well as new trends in the interaction of the Russian school with Western intellectual traditions. The main aim of the work is to demonstrate the complexity of the phenomenon of Russian philosophy and to identify its role in the formation of modern cultural and national identity. The ma-terials provided may serve as a valuable resource for educators, students, and individuals interested in the cul-tural context and historical dynamics of Russian philosophy.
