Abstract
Introduction. The urgency of the topic of the article is determined by the search for modern philosophy, social and political philosophy in the domain of genesis, the establishment and functioning of the fundamental axiological concept of liberal thought, the freedom of man, in the horizons of meanings. The attention was also paid to the correlation between the historical and philosophical traditions of life and modernist transformations in humanitarian. Purpose. The purpose of the paper is to outline the semantic correlation between the using of the figure of silence and the understanding of the philosopheme of memory in G. S. Skovoroda and modern transformations of understanding time, history and memory in social sciences and humanities. Methods used in the study: textual analysis of sources, historical and philosophical analysis, analytical and hermeneutical methods in combination with contemporary history of ideas and culturological approach. The results of the study consist in clarifying the conditions for the formation of a liberal understanding of the concept of freedom in the national philosophical tradition and philosophical symbolism and mysticism in the work and myth of G. S. Skovoroda. Also it was shown the relevance of the model of the formation of meaning through the figure of silence for modern searches of social and political philosophy, cultural studies and the history of ideas. The originality and novelty of the research consist in an attempt to fix and comprehend the connection between the G. S. Skovoroda’s philosophical symbolism and the establishment and approval of a liberal understanding of freedom in the European modernist tradition. Conclusions. As a result of the research, conclusions were made on the conditionality of the existing understanding of the fundamental liberal value of freedom in Ukrainian philosophical and cultural tradition by the influence of Christian philosophical symbolism of G. S. Skovoroda. This can be considered as a part of the pan-European process of the liberal values formation and the modern world picture. The philosophy of memory and the figure of silence in G. S.
