The article discusses the logic of structuring and content of the discipline "Culture of Everyday Life", due to the complexity and versatility of the phenomenon of everyday life and interdisciplinarity of methodological optics of its research, the variety of theoretical tools, which, in turn, determines the ambiguity of views on the very essence of the phenomenon of everyday life and its components. The analysis of educational programs on "Culture of Everyday Life", that are among the elements of educational-professional and educational-scientific training programs on "Culturology" in higher education institutions in Ukraine, demonstrated the wide variability of their content and structure. The first part of the article substantiates the need to discuss among stakeholders the boundaries and basic elements of the subject field of the discipline, which would determine its specifics and features when considering the phenomenon of everyday life. A certain model of the logical structure of the "Culture of Everyday Life" as a discipline is proposed, the main elements of its structure and their content are considered. The main stages and thematic directions of historiography of the phenomenon of everyday life in accordance with the scientific specializations of researchers are analyzed. The main achievements in the study of the everyday life phenomenon, initiated by experts of life of certain social groups representing different cultural and historical epochs, as well as the work of historians, philosophers, sociologists, carried out during the XXth century, are considered. The most common definitions of the phenomenon of everyday life, which operate in different segments of modern socio-humanitarian knowledge are analyzed, to understand the situation in modern "everyday science" in terms of systematization / structuring of accumulated knowledge about the phenomenon of everyday life, defining the boundaries of everyday life and its opposing worlds, which more clearly outline the contours of everyday life and thus contribute to the definition of the thematic field of the discipline "Culture of Everyday Life".

Clive Bell’s Art, published in 1913, is widely seen as a founding document in contemporary aesthetics. Yet his formalism and his attendant definition of art as “significant form” is widely rejected in contemporary art discourse and in the philosophy of art. In this paper I argue for a reconsideration of his thought in connection with current discussions of “the aesthetics of everyday life.” Although some, notably Allen Carlson, have argued against application of Bell’s formalism to the aesthetics of everyday life, I claim that this is based on an interpretation of the concept that is overly narrow. First, Li Zehou offers an interpretation of “significant form” that allows in sedimented social meaning. Second, Bell himself offers a more complex theory of significant form by way of his “metaphysical hypothesis,” one that stresses perception of significant form outside the realm of art (for example in nature or in everyday life). Bell’s idea that the artist can perceive significant form in nature allows for significant form to not just be the surface-level formal properties of things. It stresses depth, although a different kind than the cognitive scientific depth Carlson wants. This is a depth that is consistent with the anti-dualism of Spinoza, Marx and Dewey. Reinterpreting Bell in this direction, we can say we are moved by certain relations of lines and colors because they direct our minds to the hidden aspect of things, the spiritual side of the material world referred to by Spinoza and developed by Dewey in his concept of experience. Bell hardly “reduces the everyday to a shadow of itself,” as Carlson puts it, since the everyday, as experienced by the artist or the aesthetically astute observer, has, or potentially has, deep meaning. If we reject Bell’s dualism and his downgrading of sensuous experience, we can rework his idea of pure form to refer to an aspect of things detached, yes, from practical use, but not from particularity or sedimented meaning, not purified of all associations.

Abstract Every definition of creative tourism cites, in some form, the necessity of a positive and productive relationship between residents and tourists, whether it is expressed as visitors engaging in the everyday life of the community, or as visitors learning from residents a creative skill unique to that location. The study provides comparison of the creative tourism situation for Copenhagen and Barcelona in terms of demography and cultural analysis.

Opening the political borders triggered cultural diffusion in the European countries as the open communicative space accelerated the pace of globalization processes. As a result, changes occurring within a society influence the lives of fundamental social groups, i.e. the families. The last decades in Poland have marked a period of intense changes in the everyday life culture, and the examples of the persons coming from three generations reflect the significance of prefigurative and cofigurative cultures.

The purpose of the article consists of exploring the category of décor as a form of social belonging in ancient Rome. The methodology consists in the application of analytical method – to determine the theoretical and methodological foundations of the study of the décor in the works of Roman architects and philosophers: Vitruvius, Cicero, Seneca, Epicurus; formalization method – to clarify the concept of "décor" within the subject field of art history; the hermeneutic method – for interpreting the semantic load of the notion "décor" in the context of the culture of Ancient Rome; method of comparative studies – for analyzing approaches to understanding the category of décor as a form of social belonging in Ancient Rome. The scientific novelty of the work is that for the first time the essence of the décor as a form of social belonging in Ancient Rome. Conclusions. In Ancient Rome, the phenomenon of "Entertainment" was an important component of the socio-cultural life of this period, there was not a single sphere where this phenomenon did not act as the main decoration, the triumphs of emperors, the luxurious life of the patricians, all this was expressed in one definition of Juvenal – "Bread and circuses", Which became a defining marker in the culture and art of Ancient Rome. Décor, as an integral part of this phenomenon, becomes a form of social belonging, reflecting the characteristics of the corresponding lifestyle. The transformation of the concepts "décor" and "ornare" is considered, the first - in the ideological aspect of respect for the imperial power, the second - in the traditional decoration of Roman armor for legionnaires, as a means of emphasizing their belonging to the military. The most striking example of décor was the Arc de Triomphe, built in honor of the emperors (the Arc de Triomphe of Titus, Trajan, Constantine, etc.). On the example of the works of Vitruvius, Cicero, Seneca, the meaning of the category "décor" was considered as "Decor ornamentorum", the correspondence of details in relation to the whole, individual, special beauty that organically combines the combination of individual parts of an object into a single whole, situation or setting. Defined "décor" as a form of social belonging in the context of the transformation of the four Pompeian styles based on the decoration of insula and domus for different segments of the population (Domus aurea, "Villa of the Mysteries" in Pompeii, the house of Marcus Lucretius Frontinus in Pompeii, the villa in Oplontisi, the house of Menander in Pompeii, "House with Red Walls", "House of the Century" and "House of Julius Polybius"). Keywords: décor, interpretation, a culture of Ancient Rome, Vitruvius, Entertainment, Seneca, mosaic.

Toasts logically fit into modern cultural space, including folklore. Folklore as a field of artistic creativity is widely spread in a variety of forms and types in modern reality. This phenomenon is dynamic, evolving, and quickly transformable; within humanitarian knowledge it interacts with such concise concepts as post-folklore, subculture; it reflects quality changes of public and everyday life of our era. Conceptually, the subject field of urban folklore is fairly well understood and even developed despite its specifics and complexity.

The author of this article tries to reconsider the subject field of social-philosophical knowledge. He considers the principal difference of social philosophy from theoretical sociology, historical sociology, and political philosophy. On the basis of this differentiation, it is stated that social philosophy is a separate and coherent discipline. The author then considers several possible approaches to the study of society that could be characterized as “weak programs” of social philosophy. On such a basis, it is claimed that a “strong program” of social philosophy could be formed. This program must organically combine the following assumptions: the methodology of neo-Marxism, including the orientation towards the traditional for these current intellectual objects of analysis, and accurate and thorough studies, as well as a firmness and conceptual coherence, i.e., a level of analysis beyond the immediate empirical material. The author then considers one of the main challenges that social philosophy faces or must face in the nearest future. Social philosophy has to fulfill an important task: to say something sensible about the times we are living in, to determine changes in culture and economy, as well as to give an answer to the question of what comes instead of postmodernity, if such a thing ever existed. On the basis of the above-mentioned points, the following working definition of social philosophy is given: multiple (although not always) philosophical conceptualizations of social problems, phenomena, and complex notions, as well as theoretical attempts at interpreting our or/and another epoch, which, in the interpretation, first of all assumes a normative dimension, and secondly, is based on rich empirical material. This approach can also be explained through the notion of “the parallax of the fox”, which assumes that social philosophy deals with many things, but at the same time, tries to give a new look at existing problems and to determine its heuristic potential.

Straipsnyje analizuojami ir interpretuojami Platono dialoge „Faidonas“ pateikti sielos nemirtingumo įrodymai. Platonas šiame dialoge siekia rekonstruoti sokratiškojo imperatyvo „Pasirūpink savo siela, kad ji taptų kuo geresnė“ prielaidas. Kadangi rūpestis siela kasdieniame gyvenime nepasiteisina, tai tenka ieškoti atpildo už tą rūpestį garantijų anapus šio gyvenimo, o tai ir numato sielos nemirtingumo prielaidą. Dialoge išskiriami keturi sielos nemirtingumo įrodymai – dialektinis, gnoseologinis, ontologinis bei aksiologinis. Rekonstruojama kiekvieno jū loginė struktūra ir prielaidos, kurias tematizuojant antikos mąstymo kontekstu atskleidžiamos kiekvieno įrodymo tiesioginės ir netiesioginės intencijos. Nagrinėjama ir antikoje populiarus požiūris, kad siela yra kūno daliū harmonija. Nurodoma, kad Platonas šį požiūrį aptaria ne tiek dėl savų konceptualinių sumetimų, kiek atiduodamas duoklę tokios sampratos populiarumui antikoje. Tačiau bene daugiausia dėmesio straipsnyje skiriama aiškintis platoniškajai pažinimo sampratai. Parodoma, kad esminius pažinimo kaip atsiminimo sampratos ypatumus lemia graikiškojo mąstymo sinkretiškumas, savo ruožtu anonimizuojantis pažinimo subjektą. Straipsnis pradedamas ir baigiamas etiniais akcentais. Konstatuojama, kad Platono „Faidonas“ yra bene pirmasis mėginimas teoriškai pagrįsti etinę žmogaus elgseną ir kad jame jau nurodyti tik gerokai vėliau I. Kanto suformuluoti praktinio proto postulatai.Reikšminiai žodžiai: pažinimas, atsiminimas, kasdienis mąstymas, etinis mąstymas, prasmė. PHAIDON”: STRUCTURE AND MEANING OF THE PROOFS OF IMMORTALITY OF SOULSkirmantas Jankauskas Summary The paper deals with the proofs of immortality of soul in Plato’s ‘Phaidon’. It is demonstrated here that in the dialogue, Plato attempts to reconstruct theoretical premises of the Socratic imperative ‘first and chiefly care about the greatest improvement of the soul’. The concern with the quality of soul has no warrants of reward in everyday life, therefore, it is necessary to search for such warrants beyond this life, which implies the prerequisite of the immortality of soul. Four proofs of the immortality of soul are distinguished in the dialogue: dialectical, gnoseological, ontological ant axiological. The logical structure and the premises of every proof are reconstructed. The premises are thematized in the context of Greek thinking, and in this way the direct and indirect intentions of every proof are revealed. The popular Antique concept of the soul as a harmony of the parts of body is analyzed as well. It is pointed out  that Plato deals with the concept not because of his own conceptual preoccupations but just paying a debt to the popularity of this concept in the Antique world. However, the focus of the paper centers upon the Platonic concept of knowledge. The author maintains that the essential features of the concept of knowledge as anamnesis are predetermined by the sincretic character of the Greek thinking that in its turn anonimizes the subject of knowledge. The paper begins and ends with ethical accents. It is stated here that ‘Phaidon’ could be treated as the first attempt to produce a theoretical foundation of ethical behavior and that therein the postulates of practical reason, as formulated much more later by I. Kant, are already distinguished. Keywords: knowledge, anamnesis, everyday thinking, ethical thinking, sense.
