The relevance of the study is conditioned by the necessity for formation of theoretical and practical knowledge and technologies that allow to analyze the conditions for overcoming discriminatory affirmations in modern society. The purpose of the research presented in the article is to analyze systematically the conditions for overcoming discriminatory affirmations in modern society. Hypothesis of the study suggests the assumption that in order to identify the conditions for overcoming discriminatory affirmations, a comprehensive study of the conditions of formation is necessary, followed by a search for ways of their transformation. We established that the conditions for formation of discriminatory affirmations include cultural and historical foundations, social environment, mass media, state policy, etc. The following conditions are emphasized: termination of conflict interaction, search for common or similar points of contact of opponents, decrease in the intensity of negative emotions, provision of effective discussion of the problem and choice of an optimal conflict resolution strategy based on the formed discriminatory affirmations. Narrowing the subject field of the study of triggering events, and as a consequence – overcoming discriminatory affirmations through behavior of a person in a conflict situation, will allow us to distinguish two groups: internal and external formation conditions and implementation of discriminatory attitudes. Internal conditions include prejudices, or stereotypes of a cognitive or emotional level, and external ones are real actions in interaction with an outgroup to implement prejudices already formed. A hierarchical system of conditions for overcoming discriminatory affirmations has been formulated, including four main components, where the first link is the formation of sociocultural identity, as an understanding and value of belonging to one’s own group; fixation of socio-cultural competence as a system of knowledge and ideas about the “Others”; formation of sociocultural values in relation to “others”; formation of sociocultural tolerance, which includes identity, competence and sociocultural values.

The transition period of modern society can be observed in various aspects, particularly in the value-normative one. The study of the Genesis of the formation of personality’s value-based orientations in the current conditions of reforming educational sector in Ukraine and its integration into the European Higher Education Area are becoming prioritized. The research methodology is complex, combining theoretical and empirical methods. Theoretical study of the problem of values in philosophical-historical and psychological-pedagogical discourses creates a methodological basis for expanding the subject field of interdisciplinary branches of scientific knowledge: pedagogical axiology and philosophy of music education. The interdisciplinary context of the conceptual range of these disciplines makes it possible to modernize the value-based orientation in the content of art education. The problem of spiritual and value-based formation of the personality by means of music is actualized, which creates the prerequisites for the formation of a phenomenon of holistic professional worldview of future music teachers. The analysis of structural components of the outlined phenomenon shows that the normative and regulatory basis of professional worldview is a system of value-based orientations of the individual.

All human activity is associated with the need for interpersonal communication. The need and concern for other people, as for oneself, is a specific feature of the human race, in which biological necessity acts simultaneously, that is, a person's speech and the individuals themselves are necessarily included in the social and humanitarian context. Considering the linguistic reality of social life in the form of a text, we leave the person as the main object of research. Thus, the original text of modern society is formed, which includes the worldview of people and the features of the mental system of their interaction, the way and nature of existence, a kind of sign system in the form of fixed information. The understanding is presented that speech does not reflect the meaning of things and processes of a certain field of activity, but reveals their content and gives meaning within the framework of practical activity. The mechanism of the genetic application of concepts in a certain historical territory and the process of the formation of the semiotic space of social knowledge and the procedure for recognizing its words-signs are substantiated, thanks to which the sys-tem of understanding the mentality in intellectual discourse is built. The fundamental problem of the relationship between real time and language is analyzed, the fundamental foundations of the formation of the complete semantic structure of language: an immediate feature – an object – a mediating feature – an indirect feature, taking into account the specifics of human social activity. The existential relations of symbolic-semiotic structures in the plane of interaction of the subject field of signs and the place of the subject with the help of semantics are determined, which provides a differentiated modality of the specified relationship, the structure and levels of meanings, the moments of actualization of the designated and places the terms of the specified relationship in a specific social field of their existence; it is proved that a person acts as a signified and is partially included in the models that form his attitude to the surrounding social being, but at the same time he remains signified, that is, those on whom the formation of these models indirectly depends. The study allows us to comprehend the holistic representation of the linguistic reality of the modern architectonics of social and humanitarian knowledge in the process of globalization transformations of the world in its main dimensions and forms.

The concept of life perspectives as a display of internal transformations of personality, the rethinking of values and the potential for further development in conjunction with the way in which war is represented in the discourse of the subject and society as a whole is analyzed in this article. We come to the conclusion that the perspective is how a person can see or consider the future from a particular position from a certain point.  In another language, the perspective can be interpreted as an individual way of dealing with the future and experiencing the future, according to what we propose, to consider the concept of life prospects as an intermediary, a tool for rethinking the experience of war, in terms of the availability of the following main components.  Along with the fact that the realization of life prospects can be understood through the behavioral, cognitive, and emotional level, this, including the unconscious process.  In shaping our life perspectives, we rely on a purely subjective experience of a person, which usually determines its election and model in the present and future, but the importance becomes the understanding that the formation of the subject is an endless, permanent process. A person who is infinitely constituted builds his subjectivity in interaction with others, which means that we cannot understand a person without a social context.

The purpose of the article consists of exploring carnival as a form of “Entertainment” in Renaissance discourse. The research methodology consists in the application of analytical method - to determine the theoretical and methodological foundations of the study of the phenomenon of "Entertainment" in the discourse of Renaissance; formalization method - to formulate the concept of "Entertainment" within the subject field of art; we use historical and cultural method for studying the phenomenon of «Entertainment» as a form of individualization of collective experience on the example of carnival in the context of the Renaissance discourse. The scientific novelty of the work is that for the first time the essence of the phenomenon of “Entertainment” as a form of individualization of collective experience on the example of carnival in the context of the Renaissance culture. Conclusions. Since the late Middle Ages, the carnival has become a prominent phenomenon in the culture of laughter, offering an antithesis to the religious attitudes that monopolized culture and art. Carnival, as a form of «Entertainment» in the discourse of the Renaissance, contributes to the identification of laughter elements in the culture of the Renaissance and helps to determine the significance of the laughter aspects of socio-cultural processes for society as a whole. The body image, as the main image of the carnival, creates a tendency for organizing "mass laughter", that is, a category that is actively used in our time on the example of the KVN format, which has become all-encompassing in modern society. Carnival, from the point of view of the cognitive perspectives of historical and anthropological research, outlines the features of the mentality of a Renaissance person. The carnival, as a form of «Entertainment», created conditions for the individualization of the collective experience, which was reflected in the culture of laughter, that is, «another reality» at certain times every year. Carnival formulated a concentrated universalistic formula for life and historical process. A street style of speech and imagery was formed, which became the «implementation» of the opposition to the official culture of the Renaissance.

The subject field of this research is the combination of cultural phenomena, which correlate with the initially highlighted concept of “post-truth” through generalization of its criteria. The traditionally narrow understanding of post-truth is associated with news reports of mass media. However, the distortion of actual picture, using the techniques of heuristic rhetoric and mechanisms that instigate cognitive biases is a more common situation in modern society, which unites various communication phenomena, touches upon news and everyday communication, artistic endeavor, and many other areas. The specific subject of research is the range of possible scenarios of social development depending on its response to proliferation of the phenomena that comprise the cultural-communication complex of “post-truth”. This article is the first attempt of scientific summary of the phenomenal picture of post-truth based on the competent expansion of the criteria from the partial instances to the general mechanisms. Partial criteria, such as neglecting objective factors in the report, appeal to human values and ideologies, use of emotional pressure for substantiating own opinion, the author replaces with the general: media distortion of reality as a goal of report, use of cognitive biases, use of mechanisms of heuristics. Based on the highlighted criteria, the author analyzes the question of semantic and cultural correlation with post-truth of such as the phenomena as the fan theories of two types, litbaits, pop science, folk history, astroturfing, fan fakes, clickbaits, narrative journalism, etc. Scientific novelty also consists in outlining the possible scenarios for social development and its communication environment depending on the strategies of response to expansion of the sphere of post-truth.

The article provides a comparative analysis of the influence of L.N. Tolstoy and I.I. Sergiev (John of Kronstadt) on the formation of personal worldview in Russian society. The analysis is based on the testimonies of the contemporaries and the previously not reissued publication of “Novy Put” (“New Way”) journal on the subject. In the context of the declared problematics, special attention is paid to the question of transformation of religious consciousness in the course of the personality formation in relation to the period under consideration (the beginning of the 20th century). The author reveals and analyzes the main components of the life stand of Tolstoy and Father John of Kronstadt in the context of their influence on contemporaries. The results of the study allow to reveal the following antitheses that characterize Tolstoy and John of Kronstadt, respectively: doubt - faith, search for oneself – following the once chosen path, preaching of non-resistance as part of the philosophy of not-doing (not doing evil) – preaching of active upholding of faith (doing good), “simple living” – real life with and for common people.

Today, worldview, spiritual and moral problems that have always been reflected in education and upbringing come to the fore in society. In this situation, there is a demand for philosophical categories. One of the priority goals of education in modern conditions is the formation of a reasonable, reflexive person who is able to analyze their actions and the actions of other people. Modern science is characterized by an understanding of the absolute value and significance of childhood in the development of the individual, which implies the need for its multilateral study. In the conditions of democratization of all spheres of life, the child ceases to be a passive object of education and training, and becomes an active carrier of their own meanings of being and the subject of world creation. One of the realities of childhood is philosophizing, so it is extremely timely to address the identification of its place and role in the world of childhood. Children's philosophizing is extremely poorly studied, although the need for its analysis is becoming more obvious. Children's philosophizing is one of the forms of philosophical reflection, which has its own qualitative specificity, on the one hand, and commonality with all other forms of philosophizing, on the other. The social relevance of the proposed research lies in the fact that children's philosophizing can be considered as an intellectual indicator of a child's socialization, since the process of reflection involves the adoption and development of culture. Modern society, in contrast to the traditional one, is ready to "accept" a philosophizing child, which means that it is necessary to determine the main characteristics and conditions of children's philosophizing.
