Abstract
Artemenko Mykita, Artemenko Andrii. ICONOCLASM IN CHRISTIANITY AND ZOROASTRIANISM: CREATION OF NEW ONTOLOGY OF IMAGE The article is dedicated to the analysis of the processes in early medieval philosophical, religious and aesthetic thought, which reinvented the content of ancient heritage. Early Medieval interpretation of the ancient tradition understood antiquity as a new way of representation of sphere of the Due. The authors compare the contents of the processes of iconoclasm that took place in Sassanian Iran and Byzantium. Late Hellenism is one of the most interesting periods in the history of philosophy. Antique type of rationality has been criticized by Eastern religious and philosophical schools. It was the discovery of a new way of world comprehension, which appeared in the apologetics and the early patristic thoughts. Antique philosophy was presented as an error, which had led to despair and ideological chaos. But at the same time, we see the creation of philosophical systems which were constructed as a recombination of ancient philosophy and the new religious teachings. Theological justification of iconoclastic position was undertaken with reference to the canonical tradition. Therefore, the nature of iconoclastic action in Byzantium was the same as in Iran - anthropomorphic images have being destroyed and ideological opponents have being repressed. It should be noted that the facts of Iranian iconoclasm have been studied less than the iconoclasm in the Byzantine Empire. In the same time, the authors suggested that the Zoroastrian Model of purifying the cult became the prototype of Byzantine iconoclastic. The authors concluded that the iconoclastic movement both in Byzantium and Iran was an attempt of rethinking the antique religious art tradition. It was undertaken the renovation of representative means of religious art. As a result, two systems visualizing ontology of religious object appeared. Despite the fact that the methodology and system of argumentation of Christian and Zoroastrian iconoclasts were similar - both of them used the philosophies Platonism and Neo-Platonism, - the results of Iranian and Byzantine iconoclasm were opposed. While the Zoroastrians embraced iconoclasm as liberation from alien cultural influence, in Eastern Christianity there were rethinking of tradition and creation of new ontology of religious painting.
