«Жизнемысль» в творчестве Михаила Пришвина как протест против эксплуатации природы

This article examines the writing of Mikhail Prishvin – author of multiple works written in the form of poetic belles-lettres prose, in which he presents a man in his organic connection with nature (eg. The Root of Life), author of lyrical and philosophical miniatures (eg. Nature’s Diary), in which he contemplates the world of plants and animals, eyeing the life of the inhabitants of the forest, describing natural phenomena. Throughout his life Prishvin kept journals which inspired many of his works and are a valuable document of author’s contemporary era. In his literary works Mikhail Prishvin discussed the meaning of human life and man’s destiny. His philosophical views where largely shaped by philosophical thought of Nikolai Fyodorov and Vladimir Solovyov. He also related to Vladimir Vernadsky’s idea of “noosphere” (sphere of human thought).
