The categories “goodness” and “beauty” in the space of post-secular culture

The aim of the study is to identify a number of meaningful characteristics of goodness and beauty in the space of post-secular culture, in which secular and religious approaches occupy an important place. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that despite the predominance of secular attitudes in modern culture, the religious approach plays an important role in the process of formation of modern man's ideas about goodness and beauty. The applied secular and religious approaches in defining the essential characteristics of goodness and beauty help to reveal the peculiarities of the process of formation of postsecular culture. As a result, postsecular culture is analysed as a philosophical phenomenon in the aspect of the categories of goodness and beauty. The description of possible prospects for the development of postsecular culture, goodness and beauty is presented in the literary works of the modern author V. Pelevin.
