RESUMENPodemos encontrar en los escritos tardíos de Fichte un giro importante desde una perspectiva individualista del Yo hacia una perspectiva comunitaria del Nosotros. Él intentó en sus Discursos a la nación alemana explicitar una relación espiritual que trabaja contra la atomatización de una sociedad dada. Elaboró para ello un interesante concepto de nación cultural. El factor constitutivo de una nación como tal es el lenguaje, y con ello: el camino del pensamiento y la experiencia de la realidad. Fue un paso adelante, no sólo hacia la famosa afirmación hegeliana acerca del progreso histórico a través de las grandes naciones, sino también hacia un giro hermenéutico en la filosofía europea. La filosofía social del Fichte tardío es una interesante mezcla de racionalismo trascendental y conciencia histórica moderna. Llevó su pensamiento a las puertas de lo que el filósofo alemán contemporáneo H. Schnadelbach ha denominado como una segunda ilustración histórico-hermenéutica.PALABRAS CLAVESLENGUAJE, CULTURA, NACIÓN, HISTORIA HERMENÉUTICA, COMUNIDAD, ATOMIZACIÓNABSTRACTWe can find in the late writings of Fichte an important turn from an individualisticperspective of I to the community perspective of We. He tried in his Reden an die deutsche Nation to explicate a spiritual relationship that works against the atomization of a given society. He elaborated thus an interesting concept of cultural nation. The constitutive factor of such a nation is language, and with it: the ways of thinking and of experiencing the reality. It was a step ahead not only towards the famous Hegel’s claim about the historical progress through the great, leading nations, but also towards a hermeneutical turn in the European philosophy. Fichte’s late social philosophy is an interesting mixture of transcendental rationalism and modern historical consciousness. He situated his thought on the threshold to something the German contemporary philosopher H. Schnadelbach called a second, historicalhermeneutical Enlightenment.KEY WORDSLANGUAGE, CULTURE, NATION, HISTORY, HERMENEUTICS, COMMUNITY, ATOMIZATION

The main purpose of this article is to study the role of the Russian Museum in the formation of the historical consciousness of Russian society. In this context, the author examines the history of the creation of the Russian Museum of Emperor Alexander III and its pre-revolutionary collections that became the basis of this famous museum collection (in particular, the composition of the museum’s expositions for 1898 and 1915). Within the framework of the methodology proposed by the author, the works of art presented in the museum’s halls were selected and distributed according to the historical eras that they reflect, and a comparative analysis of changes in the composition of the expositions was also carried out. This approach made it possible to identify the most frequently encountered historical heroes, to consider the representation of their images in the museum’s expositions, and also to provide a systemic reconstruction of historical representations broadcast in its halls.
