ANTHROPOLOGICAL ASPECT OF THE WORKS OF LU XUN AND A.P. CHEKHOV AND ITS ROLE IN THE EDUCATIONAL PARADIGM

Abstract

This article is devoted to the study of the anthropological aspect of the works of Lu Xun and A.P. Chekhov in the context of the educational paradigm. The purpose of the work is to identify the role of anthropological analysis of literary texts in the development of humanitarian knowledge and improvement of educational practices. The methodological basis of the study was made up of comparative, hermeneutical and anthropological approaches, which allowed for a deep comparative analysis of the works of two classics of world literature. Such a synthesis makes it possible to consider literary texts in a broad socio-cultural context, to identify their connection with current problems of education and upbringing. As a result, the key anthropological constants of Lu Xun and Chekhov's work were identified: humanism, attention to the inner world of man, criticism of social vices, and the pursuit of a moral ideal. The anthropological analysis of the work of Lu Xun and A.P. Chekhov opens up new perspectives for understanding the human phenomenon in its diverse manifestations and contradictions. It is shown that the integration of anthropological issues into literary education contributes to the formation of students' holistic understanding of a person, the development of empathy, critical thinking, and intercultural competence. The conclusion is made about the importance of the anthropological dimension of literature for the humanization of education and the solution of urgent socio-cultural problems. The results obtained open up prospects for further interdisciplinary study of artistic anthropology and its role in the educational process. Mastering the anthropological content of literary classics encourages moral reflection, develops the ability to critical thinking and empathy, and expands the horizons of intercultural communication. The article will be of interest to specialists in the field of literary studies, philosophical anthropology, pedagogy, as well as to anyone interested in the problems of humanitarian education and intercultural communication.
