To the issue of specifics of Vasiliy Rozanov’s creativity (the experience of the interpretation of suppositions)

This article is devoted to the analysis of several suppositions, related to Rozanov’s creativity and options of it’s interpretation. We mean by the supposition the guess and at the same time the concrete plan. This position makes it possible for us to bring together the different treatments to Rozanov’s creativity that can be found in the history of Russian philosophy. Simultaneously we consider as the supposition the convergence between different schemes of the mind and sides of the world, that Rozanov had suggested in his first book “On Understanding”. This approach helps us to realize, that the prepositions of the interpreters concerning the creativity of Rozanov are connected with his own suppositions. We presume the phenomenon of the potentiality is the general base of Rozanov’s vision, that links Rozanov’s suppositions to the conceptions of researchers and puts early and late Rozanov’s works together. We suggest, that the late works of Rozanov are the realized potentialities of his early ideas, that he expressed in his treatise “On Understanding”. Rozanov’s creativity gives us the opportunity to examine Rozanov’s spiritual search as the movement from the concrete particular images to the general (Rozanov’s metaphysics). Our theory basis on the conception of the hermeneutic circle. We come to the conclusion, that the main statement of Rozanov’s creativity, integrating it’s different features is the symbolism of Rozanov’s world. This symbolism can be explained by means of A.F. Losev's theory of the interpreted symbol and by some aspects of the doctrine of the chronotope by M. M. Bakhtin. We try to unite these theories, according to the creativity of Rosanov and understand his searches in such way. This approach gives us the opportinity to realize the ideas of Rozanov better.
