00:00A film by Dmitry Kuznetsov
00:15First of all, I would like to talk about Ivan Ilyenkov as a philosopher.
00:26No matter how strange or banal it may sound at first,
00:31for me it is one of the sharpest, the most complex,
00:37the highest things that I associate with Ivan Ilyenkov.
00:43Somehow it turned out to be a discovery that the philosophical logic of these laws of dialectics
00:52can be described not as a teaching, not as a law,
00:56but really as an inner holistic system of thinking.
01:02Philosophy turned out to be a discovery for us through Ivan Ilyenkov.
01:08It turns out that the concept of dialectics,
01:14it turns out that all these things are radically new.
01:19It turned out to be a discovery for our generation,
01:23which entered into philosophy in the 1950s.
01:27And Ivan Ilyenkov discovered, it would seem, a stage for the discovery of facts.
01:32Philosophy exists.
01:49Ivan Ilyenkov.
