Ilyina A. Deconstructive Turn in Transcendental Thinking

The thesis is devoted to the problem of reconstitution of theoretical foundation of the transcendental thinking on the basis of methodological approach of deconstructive philosophy. The latter is considered by the author as one of the basic versions of transcendentalism, along with the critical and phenomenological transcendental projects. The question of the Cartesian foundations of the “transcendental motive” is considered as well. On the ground of investigation and development of methodological resources of deconstructive discourse, the concept of “hyperbolic transcendentalism” is proposed, which involves the uncovering of hyperbolicity inherent in transcendental attitude and at the same time the revealing of potential of transcendental position in the context of contemporary philosophy.With the help of a “zigzag” movement between the network of deconstructive quasi-concepts and the conceptual basis of “classical” transcendentalism, the list of fundamental characteristics of transcendental thinking is defined, in particular such as: constitutive function of principles of relation and difference, critical attitude, significance of the idea of border, hyperbolicity.
