Thesis for a candidate's degree in philosophy by speciality 09.00.10. philosophy of education. Institute of Higher Education of Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv, 2006. The dissertation is devoted to studying the problem of eschatology in the framework of new discursive social and cultural conditions and revealing its creative potentiality. The theoretical generalizations of philosophical views and innovative approaches to solving the problem of constructing the personality's new senses of life have been offered in the dissertation. It is shown that due to the changes in social and cultural life and formation of new common to all human beings perspectives, the dependence of sense of education from previous determinants of worldview orientation is declining. As a result of this process the need of future modeling of education becomes urgent. The constructing of necessary conditions for self-development, self-actualization, and self-realization is a ground of the modeling process. The obtained results substantially transform the conceptions, developed in philosophical and pedagogical practice concerning the potentiality of educational and cultural spheres in transformation of eschatological cognitive approach. The research outcome can be viewed as one of the ways of reconsidering the educational and cultural spheres' social and philosophical grounds and cognitive and axiological possibilities.
