«Историческая инверсия» Михаила Бахтина в свете консервативного, прогрессивного и мифотворческого мышления
The article is devoted to the study of one of the poorly studied and mysterious concepts of Mikhail Bakhtin — “historical inversion.” First of all, the origin of this concept is investigated, and the idea of inversion-revolution is considered in the work of Oswald Spengler’s “The Decline of the West.” Historical inversion is an attempt made by Bakhtin to criticize Aristotle`s doctrine of the entelechy. In a broad perspective, the concept touches upon confrontation on the West-East line.
