M. S. Novikov Development of means of combating armored vehicles at the forefront of defense. The first half of the 1930s. Based on the materials of the Soviet military press DOI: 10.25206/2542-0488-2022-7-4-31-38 In the article on the materials of the military press of the first half of the 1930s. the author analyzes the change in views on the fight against armored vehicles in the specified period. The author considers the main addition and alternatives to anti-tank guns, which were popular with military theorists considering the issues of countering armored vehicles at a distance of up to a kilometer. In the course of his work, the author considers proposals on the tactical and technical aspects of using various types of grenades against armored vehicles, mines, bi-calibre artillery system, heavy machine guns, automatic guns received from both foreign and domestic experts. As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that in the USSR in the first half of the 1930s. the military leadership quickly came to the conclusion that anti-tank guns were needed to fight tanks, and grenades and mines could play a very limited role in the fight against armored vehicles. While outside the USSR, heavy machine guns, automatic guns, field artillery guns continued to be considered as anti-tank weapons. Thus, we can say that in the USSR the conceptual awareness of the vector of counteraction to armored vehicles occurred earlier than in Germany, France, the British Empire, the United States of America and Poland. Keywords: heavy machine gun, autocannon, mine, grenade, bi-calibre artillery system, Interbellum, foreign experience. |

The author comes to the conclusion that the first attempts to comprehend the activities of the Imperial Russian Military Historical Society were carried out even before the revolution of 1917, but only from the 1940s. laid the foundation for studying its history. It is concluded that the interest of modern researchers is fragmentary and is more focused on studying the activities of local departments and the organizational structure of society. A promising direction for further research is the study of the history of this association of military historians in the context of the interdisciplinary paradigm «Memory studies», which allows us to consider the Imperial Russian Military Historical Society as one of the most important actors influencing the formation of historical memory at the beginning of the 20th century. Keywords: military anthropology, cultural anthropology, officers, historical memory, Russian Imperial Army, Imperial Russian Military Historical Society, scientific community. |

PHILOSOPHY
E. V. Borisov The critique of the theory of logical causality DOI: 10.25206/2542-0488-2022-7-4-96-100 One of the solutions to Bernardete’s paradox and a number of analogous paradoxes is based on the idea that there is a special type of causality — logical causality. This solution was proposed by Hawthorne and modified by Uzquiano. The paper presents a criticism on it. I put forward objections against Uzquiano’s modification of Hawthorne theory as well as against the very idea of logical causality. The conclusion is to the effect that, unless other reasons for the idea of logical causality are present, this idea either is trivial or lacks sufficient reason. Keywords: Bernardete’s paradox, Zeno phenomenon, Zeno effect, logical causality, logical consequence. |

V. S. Efremova Considerable characteristic of second plan of the history of Aristotelian society DOI: 10.25206/2542-0488-2022-7-4-101-108 The article presents a study of the first stage of the formation of the Aristotelian Society. Unlike works devoted to the development and study of the meaning of the Society in the general historical and philosophical context, in this article the focus is on the group of scholars and amateurs left without close attention, which formed its ‘network’ basis. The qualitative growth of the membership of the Society, the leveling of the most negative aspects of the manifestation of the Matthew effect, strong local traditions — all these factors played an important role in the history of the development of the Society. Keywords: Aristotelian Society, philosophical and scientific communities, R. Collins’ theory of intellectual networks, R. Merton’s sociology of scientific communities, Matthew effect. |

V. V. Tselishchev Russell and Wittgenstein: apprenticeship and other ‘crossings’ DOI: 10.25206/2542-0488-2022-7-4-109-114 The article is devoted to the analysis of the traditional interpretation for the development of personal and intellectual relations between Russell and Wittgenstein in the light of the publication of materials from the Russell Archive. The mythology of the traditional interpretation of the development and collaboration of Wittgenstein and Russell is demonstrated and criticized. A more complex trajectory of the development of these relations is shown, which does not correspond to the traditional interpretation, according to which this development led to a kind of intellectual and creative surrender of Russell to his former student. Keywords: B. Russell, L. Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, early analytic philosophy. |

G. Landini Wittgenstein’s Tractarian Apprenticeship / trans. from Engl. V. V. Tselishchev DOI: 10.25206/2542-0488-2022-7-4-115-129 The years since the publication of Wittgenstein’s Tractatus have produced a good many interpretations of its central tenets. Time has produced something of a consensus concerning the nature of the Tractarian criticisms of Russell’s philosophy. Recent work on Russell’s philosophy of logic reveals, however, that the agreed account of Tractarian criticisms relies upon characterizing Russell with positions he did not hold. Keywords: B. Russell, L. Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, early analytic philosophy. |

А. К. Zhaparova Perspectives for philosophy of the body and the new realism DOI: 10.25206/2542-0488-2022-7-4-130-138 The article presents a commentary on the article by Mario Teodoro Ramirez «The Body by Itself. From the Phenomenology of the Body to an Ontology of the Embodied Self», in which he tries to declare an attempt to build a realism based on a correctly rethought philosophy of the body. It allows building a new type of realistic ontology of the embodied subject. Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Jean-Luc Nancy’s approaches to corporeality and flesh are seen by Ramirez as the most important steps in the so-called the ‘Corporal Turn’ and laying the conceptual foundation of the ontology of New Realism. Keywords: correlationism, realism, object, subject, body, flesh, corpus. |

M. T. Ramírez The body by itself. From the phenomenology of the body to an ontology of the embodied self / trans. from Span. А. К. Zhaparova DOI: 10.25206/2542-0488-2022-7-4-139-147 This article analyzes the «corporal turn» of Philosophy in XX Century. It parts from the revaluation of the body undertaken by Nietzsche against a tradition that probably emphasized too much the spirituality of the soul, ripping it from the body. A properly thought «Philosophy of the body» could bring back that reality which modern criticism has driven so far away. To offer a way out of universal solipsism, it is necessary a Philosophy of the body capable of rethinking Realism. Merlau- Ponty and Jean-Luc Nancy’s approaches to a Philosophy of corporality and of flesh are presented, then. The next section deals with the consequences of the corporal turn of Philosophy in relation to Ontology: it shows the way from the body to Being. The exemplar exteriority with which Nancy defines the body allows us to calibrate — in the sense of an immanent Philosophy which is not done, closed or definite — an atheism free from naïve and a kind of Ontological Realism free from abstractions or dogmatism. To close the cycle, «New Realism» approach, defended by Markus Gabril, Ferraris and Harman, amongst others, is presented and defended. The intention of this article is to present a way in which it is possible to formulate a new Ontology, a new conception of Being and existence, a realistic, materialistic ontology of the corporal being inasmuch the extra-corporal being. Keywords: body, flesh, Philosophy of corporality, Materialism, New Realism. |
