Abstract

The article presents the modern scientific discourse on the creative work of the 18th-century Ukrainian thinker Hryhoriy Savich Skovoroda (1722–1794) in connection with the 300th anniversary of his birth. The research is based on a value-based approach to mastering the reflection of scientists on the creative heritage and the influence of the ideas of G.S. Skovoroda on the modern scientific (philosophical, philosophical-educational, historical-pedagogical, educational-pedagogical) discourse.

The purpose of the article is to analyze the provisions / conclusions of scientific publications of the latest period of attention to the work of G.S. Skovoroda, associated with the 300th anniversary of the thinker, as well as marked by the conditions of the full-scale invasion of the Russian aggressor into Ukraine and the resistance of the Ukrainian people to the aggressor.

Research methodology. General scientific methods of analysis and synthesis were applied in order to clarify the outlined issues, identify properties and relationships in modern scientific research on the creative heritage of G.S. Skovoroda, as well as determine the structure of the value paradigm of modern scientific discourse within the framework of the specified issue. The syncretic method was applied to the analysis of scientific works belonging to different scientific fields, and at the same time allows you to create a holistic paradigm as the implementation of the goal.

The scientific novelty lies in the application of a value approach to the analysis of scientific research on the creativity of G.S. Skovoroda, the definition and justification of the value paradigm of the creative work of the Ukrainian thinker according to modern scientific judgments.

Conclusions. The syncretic approach used in the research allows you to consider the scientific discourse on the heritage of G.S. Skovoroda, which is syncretic in content and maxims due to belonging to the period of the Ukrainian Baroque (which primarily means a combination of characteristic features of different types of literature within the framework of one work), as well as to form a single conclusion for the purpose set. First of all, it should be noted that the scientific humanitarian sphere of modern Ukraine, despite the difficult time of trials of the war with the Russian aggressor, did not ignore the significant date – the 300th anniversary of the birth of the Ukrainian thinker G.S. Skovoroda, since the significance of his legacy and life in the 18th century. (the century of the inevitable loss of the separateness of the Ukrainian component within the Russian Empire), his pedagogical influence on students, and his educational influence on the population of that time as a wandering philosopher, is exceptional and remains extremely important to this day. Each of the spheres of humanitarian studies that is relevant to the work of G.S. Skovoroda, presented her own new developments in understanding the thinker's ideas, as well as the influence of his figure. This allowed us to single out the most interesting and significant maxims from modern scientific research, to determine them by the value given by the author of each of the explorations, and to unite them into a holistic paradigm – the value paradigm of G.S. Skovoroda's work in modern scientific discourse. The paradigm includes maxims from the humanitarian direction of sciences: from philosophy, philosophy of education, sociological observations, history of pedagogy, pedagogy (methodology, didactics and teaching technologies), history of music, culture, biography.
