Abstract

The article is devoted to the philosophical interpretation of the specifics of creativity of A.S. Pushkin, the famous poet and writer, one of the geniuses of the world culture. Pushkin didn’t leave his own philosophical legacy. However, his works inspired many philosophers, who understood its philosophical depths. This article examines the works of A. S. Pushkin through the prism of analysis of the creative heritage by the Russian philosophers abroad G. P. Fedotov, N.A.Berdyaev and I.A. Ilyin, as well as modern Russian philosophers. These philosophers appreciated the work of the great writer and poet and explored his creativity in numerous works. I.A. Ilyin characterized Pushkin as "the guiding light of Russian culture". Highlighting the specific features of creativity of Pushkin, the Russian philosophers abroad emphasized the universality of the personality and creativity of Pushkin, the global responsiveness of the writer, Christian humanism and Renaissance nature of his work, joyful perception of the world, not typical for Russian literature of the 19th century; They also emphasized his gift to teach and lead others. The poetry of Pushkin poses the problem of creativity, of freedom. The life journey of the poet, according to Ilyin, led him from unbelief to faith and prayer; from rebellious protest towards free loyalty; from the dreamy thirst for freedom – to organic conservatism. The search for the Divine, according to I. A. Ilyin, took three different forms in the life of A. Pushkin: first, all-absorbing contemplation in the sphere of nature and culture; second, personal service to work; and third, an unusual desire to find himself on the edge of life, to look into the eyes of death and eternity. Modern philosophers have noted, that Pushkin inspired philosophers working on issues related to national identity. The are celebrating the mysterious "teleology of style" of Pushkin, who turned pain into music. A.S. Pushkin is the creator of the modern Russian literary language. The works of Pushkin are modern and relevant in our time. And future generations will discover the wisdom, beauty, harmony, freedom-loving ideals of the Renaissance and joyful comprehension of the world in the works of the great author.
