Svitashev S. "Philosophical and Methodological Bases of C.Rogers Humanistic Psychology"

Object -existential-and-humanitarial psychology of C.Rogers. Aim - to show a place and a role of philosophical ideas and principles in occurrence of the psychological theory of C.Rogers and method, created by him, of strengthening of a being nucleus of the human person. Methods: a phenomenological method and historical-and-comparative approach, and also methods, which are included in cultural - historical ontology of the activity and the sense (the principle of the activity and the principle of the practice). There is shown that today's representations about C.Rogers's theory, which is an example of influence of existentialism on the area of concrete - scientific researches, are insufficient. There is shown, that C.Rogers himself could not estimate the philosophical bases of his approach objectively. Philosophical and methodological fundamentals of the Carl Rogers' theory are examining in comparison with the attitude of representatives of existential , phenomenalogical and hermeneutic philosophyof the XIX-XX centuries as well as in comparison with S.Freid's ideas. Rogers used the hermenevtic procedure of understanding. His ontology of experience is based on the position as ontology of understanding, experience, feeling, language, created in the European philosophy of XIX-XX centuries. Rogers' method of approach is an icarnation of posibilities created by cultural-and-historical ontology of activity and sense. In his attention to human felling Rogers moved in the direction showed by L.Feyerbah. In the course of interpersonal dialog, the possibility to join the aggregate richness of the human cultural experience, accumulated in the language of personal contacts, has been found by Rogers.
