SOME NOTES ON RUSSIAN „POSTHUMANISM“. YURI MAMLEEV AS A METAPHYSICAL NATIONALIST

Abstract

In the following paper we focus on late philosophical writings and novels of Yuri Mamleev. The main research topic is the so-called metaphysical nationalism as a manifestation of wider “post-humanistic“ context of Russian postmodern literature. As a key theme we look into Mamleev`s philosophical speculation about Eternal Russia as an axiom which can justify even questionable ethical behaviour. An important aspect is also the mutualideological influence between (relationship between) Mamleev`s pseudophilosophy and Alexander Dugin`s geopolitical theories.
