Historical examination of agent concept

Abstract

© BEIESP. Throughout the development of thought from the classical forms of philosophizing to the present, the understanding of the subject also changes. The transition from the Hegelian substance subject to the individual transcending subject is carried out, and then the “death of the subject” in all its forms (God, social, author, etc.). Such a fundamentally new understanding, the interpretation of human consciousness and being, is primarily associated with the emergence of a fundamentally new way of this consciousness functioning. This work is devoted to the consideration of this determining connection between the forms of theoretical problematization of a subject in philosophical thought and changes in social structure. They may consider the allocation of three main historical stages of the subject problematization and the corresponding forms of social as the main results. In the era of the New Age, there is understanding of a subject as a participant in history, who is the product of history and the creator. At the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, this understanding is being transformed and refined. Now they deny subject rootedness in the transcendental field on the one hand, and this rootedness should seek and achieve on the other hand. The motive for a breakthrough towards the absolute and overcoming one's own “queerness” becomes the main one. In the second half of XXth century, they form a special view of the subject-he is now problematized as absent.
