Verbal symbol studyingas philosophical phenomenon

Abstract

The article deals with the theoretical aspect of verbal symbol studying as philosophical phenomenon. In spite of the multiplicity of the researched unit, its philosophical value it has been revealed concerning to image and sign simultaneously. Symbol is defined as a distinguishing sign; a sign or an image which represents an idea; watched or heard construction which is given a special meaning by a certain group of people and this meaning doesn’t coincide with the essence of this construction. It has been emphasized on the mythological conception of the world which dealt with the identity of symbolic form and its meaning. The symbols appeared as indirect representation according to the analogy, or due to the transferring the reflection from the object of consideration on a completely different notion. It has been noticed that due to the symbolic transcendentalism by E. Cassirer a significantly new meaning has been acquired the philosophical project of a theory of cognition and language, which is valuable concerning to the linguistic symbol research. It has been proved that the formation of philosophical symbol is based on aesthetically Germanic theory of romantics, which representatives considered the symbol from rational and semiotic point of view. This theory was developed in the Slavic philosophical thought, which defended the principle of correlation between idea and thing. It has been committed that in the philosophy of art a symbol is considered as a universal category, which is today closely associated with the expressive means of the artistic image.
