At the lecture Fyodor Ivanovich will offer reflection on difficult and urgent questions: Why does man not live for the sake of culture? Why does culture put us beyond morality and freedom? What happens when there is not enough consciousness for awareness? Why is society the tamer of man? How does the division into "us" and "them" appear? War as a means of human renewal through horror and war as a way of resolving illogical problems of consciousness. What should we do today?
