should  be  mentioned  that  his  moral  philosophy  had  enormous
               development  and  great  influence  on  philosophical  trends  of  Western
               countries.

                      While studying the German classicists, namely of I. Kant, foreign
               students may have difficulties in mastering the new terms, notions and
               categories,  which  practically  don’t  have  analogues  in  the  philosophic

               thought  of  the  East.  So,  I.  Kant  introduced  the  understanding  of  the
               world through the division of it into “a thing in itself” and “a thing for
               itself”.  According  to  Kant,  we  can  cognize  only  phenomena,  because
               they  are  the  methods,  with  the  help  of  which  things  reveal  in  our

               experience. Kant emphasized  the conception of apriorism, which proves
               that knowledge received from experience and on the independent from it
               basis is authentic. With the help of such aprioristic forms Kant tried to

               investigate space and time. The category  of mind is introduced as the
               absolute knowledge through it’s anti-nome.
                      In the history of the East, in particular in ancient civilizations, such
               as Mesopotamia, there was the culture of transcendental world-outlook,

               Kant  introduced  this  philosophy  in  his  natural-scientific  studies,  for
               example,  “nebular”  cosmogonic  theory.  Kant’s  formulation  of  the
               conditions for “categorical imperative” is unique for the understanding

               of the postulates concerning the doctrines about morality of European
               people.  This  postulate  is  the  supreme  principle,  that  comes  not  from
               empiric nature of human-being, but from transcendentality. Kant’s moral

               philosophy was developed on the European continent and it influenced
               the culture of modern philosophic and anthropologic doctrines.
                      H. Hegel (1770-1831) – is the creator of the philosophic system,

               which  has  encyclopedic  character.  Being  an  objective  idealist,  the
               philosopher uses the principle of triad and through a three-step cycle of
               the universal spirit (idea) development, forms the dialectics, as a single
               adequate subject of the method.

                      G.  Hegel  explains  the  problem  of  humanity  and  “human  spirit”
               from  the  point  of  view  of  objective  idealism.  The  book  by  Hegel
               “Phenomenology  of  spirit”  is  unique  in  its  content  and  method  of

               dialectical cognition. The material of this book which is recommended
               for the students shows the formation and development of consciousness
               by separating it from the body, the perception, the external world and
               than its formation as a subjective spirit in its movement to the absolute.

               The  attention  should  be  paid  to  three  moments,  that  are  periods  of
               historical  formation  and  development  of  dialectical  thought,  which  is
               incarnation  for  the  sense  of  human  mind,  its  purpose.  The  theory  of


                                                             31
