Shimelfenig O.V. Typology of the pictures of the world

The author’s focus is on the problem of creating a holistic spiritual-psycho-physical picture of the world as a philosophical synthesis of the scientific, religious and existential-personal aspects of the world outlook with the help of noospheric language. As such an integral concept of reality a plot-game paradigm is taken, on the basis of which a solution to the problem of typology of the pictures of world is proposed. The methodological basis is the dialectical method, which characterizes the reproduction in thinking of the studied subject in its integrity, movement and development, in interaction and interdependence with other aspects of reality. The author also relies on a systematic interdiscipli-nary approach and the concept of the noosphere, which make it possible to use the theoretical provisions of philosophy, logic, natural science, literary criticism and other sciences. A “meta-picture” of ideas about the world is proposed based on three fundamental dichot-omies: “material — spiritual”, “fragmented — integral” and “unconsciously patterned — consciously-creatively-playful”. It is shown that a variant of the “spiritual-holistically-consciously-creatively-playful” worldview is a plot-playing paradigm. It is concluded that the “panorama of world pictures” built on the basis of this paradigm allows us to understand in what direction it is worth consciously acting in the present, and how to responsibly design the future both for an individual and for society as a whole.
