The mask as a cultural form in the age of renaissance (the "face" of Mr. Shiko)

The essence of the mask as a form that structures the historical and cultural process through the reproduction of the meanings of culture acts as the central problem of research. The article gives an analysis of the processes of desacralization of object masks and the formation of an unpredictable form of a form, a characteristically characteristic Renaissance. The paper presents an overview of the existence of a mask in three dimensions of the culture of the Renaissance - the penitentiary system, the buffoonery-buffoonery and masquerade environment. The authors show how, in the Renaissance, through the revision of Christian dogmatics, a return to an interest in earthly life occurs, which entailed the revival of the “carnival” ways of representing the subject in a cultural form - a mask. The authors clarify the genesis of the imperceptible mask in the course of the formation of a specific standard of cultural activity - buffoonery. The text represents the reconstruction of the masks of Antoine d’Angliaré - the historical persona of the Renaissance - widely known as the “clown of Chicot”. Semantic interpretations of the content of masks-“faces” Shiko are argued by the value orientations of the cultural-historical period.
