Rozanov is analyzed. Such known works of the thinker as "The last leaves" and "An apocalypse of our time" are considered. On the basis of it the author of article draws a conclusion that the power keeps culture from transformation as well as the culture acts as the guarantor of protection of the power, and change of the power as a result of the changes (revolutionary) uncontrolledly (podpolno) occurring in culture leads to valuable transformation of culture that it is possible to see on the example of the revolutionary changes happening in the Russian Empire at the beginning of the XX century.
