Keywords: Pavel Alexandrovich Florensky; space; symbol; energy; language; word; icon; internal/external
Summary/Abstract: The paper examines symbolization of space and its link with the energy of everything that exists, based on the internal/external antinomy as one of the basic antinomies in Florensky’s understanding of spatial organization and mode of the man’s existence in the world. Functionality of symbol is explained and justified by Florensky by means of energy of symbols, while energy is also equally manifested in the language activity (words, God’s name), icon and works of art. On the other hand, science and philosophy – “descriptions of reality” – are explained as symbolic “models of reality”.
