Abstract:

There is an analysis of appearance and development of S.N. Bulgakov´s ideas based on philosophy and religion. The author reviews the question: how does the objective tendency of new worldview´s formation, which is free from the old european rationalism and anthropocentrism, show itself in the S.N. Bulgakov´s «religious materialism»? The authors do research on the topic of S. N. Bulgakov´s science works from the beginning of his philosophic activity to the moment of creation of his own doctrine. There we can also see the features and basics of «religious materialism» and, what is more, the most important properties of matter, according to the analyzed doctrine. The article considers V. Solovyov´s idea of the sophism of the world, which Bulgakov synthesizes with Marxism and the other European philosophy´s achievements, uses things which are, in his opinion, positive and true in this philosophy.

Keywords: polyparadigmality, materialism, God, world, sophism of the world, Marxism, Earth, life.
