The concepts of the noosphere by V. I. Vernadsky and P. Teilhard de Chardin in the cultural space of Russia

The article is devoted to the changes in the perception of the concepts of the noosphere by V. I. Vernadsky and P. Teilhard de Chardin in the national culture. Three periods of perception of these concepts of the noosphere in the domestic cultural space are investigated: the Soviet period, the period of Gorbachev’s «perestroika» and the nineties of the XX century, the period of the first two decades of the XXI century. The article disputes the thesis about the influence of the concept of the noosphere by P. Teilhard de Chardin on the teachings of V. I. Vernadsky about the transition of the biosphere into the noosphere. The article argues that the perception of the concepts of the noosphere by V. I. Vernadsky by P. Teilhard de Chardin in the domestic cultural space of the XXI century has undergone changes under the influence of the growth of the authority of transhumanism. It is demonstrated how the idea of the noosphere of V. I. Vernadsky acquires religious outlines under the influence of the ideas of N.F. Fedorov and his followers. The article shows that the concept of the noosphere remains syncretic.
