Historical reconstruction as a dialogical project: categorical-verbal and moral dominants in historical thought of A. Ya. Gurevich

The article discusses some dialogical conditions for the possibility of historical reconstruction in the epistemological situation «after “post-modernity”» in their practical representations in the works of A.Ya. Gurevich, a historian and one of the most significant Russian epistemologists of the late XXth and early XXIst centuries. The position of the historian is specified in relation to the dialogical philosophy of M.M. Bakhtin and V.S. Bibler through the microanalysis of a few of dialogic philosophy’s concepts selected and interpreted by both of them. The author focuses on categorical-verbal and moral dominants as some personal presuppositions or dialogical grounds in historical thought of A.Ya. Gurevich and refers to the ontological perspective of the dialogical project of historical reconstruction, corresponding with cognitive or epistemological dialogical senses searched and implemented by A.Ya. Gurevich.
