(Humanities Education As Place for Cultural-Historical Memory)

Abstract: The article stresses the urgency and importance of cultural-historical memory as an ontological phenomenon within the conditions of today’s global risks. Based on the ideas of V. Stepin and the semiotic concept of J. Lotman, the cultural-historical memory is defined as a form of preserving, transmitting and updating programme activities of the society and its results. Education in the field of Humanities is studied as an ontological basis of cultural-historical memory and its most important source of development. Particular attention is paid to philosophical education as an important basis for education and socialisation of the individual. It is proved that the classical university is unable to maintain its position in the society without philosophy as an academic discipline.
