Abstract:
This article is devoted to the consideration of the phenomenon of love in the works of the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze. The article will show the development and change of this concept throughout its philosophical project, as well as the relationship with other philosophical concepts. The article highlights three successive stages in Deleuze's understanding of love. The first stage is the discovery of the Other as a possible world. A number of Deleuze's early works reflect him. In them, you can see how Deleuze builds his phenomenology of the beloved and the Other. He moves from the conflictual consideration of the Other to the inter-monadological theory of the Other. The second stage is the invasion of each other's world. His work "Marcel Proust and the Signs" corresponds to him, where Deleuze is engaged in a more detailed examination of the phenomenon of love through love signs exchanged between a lover and a loved one. Each of them has their own limited point of view, which can lead to misunderstandings. However, interaction with each lover complements the picture of the world and is included in a series of events that determine the point of view of the lover and the beloved. The third stage is the unification of the worlds, which can be found in the joint work with Felix Guattari "A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia". Love can be one of the examples of a "body without organs", it helps to go beyond established boundaries, gives rise to experiments and new practices. However, Deleuze and Guattari separately note the necessary caution in love practice. Considering love in the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze gives us a better understanding of his ethics, his views in relation to Another, helps us understand his general perception of another person as an exponent of an alternative point of view that can enrich and complement our existence.

// Philosophical Thought.
2018. № 4.
P. 1-9.

Abstract:
The determination of peculiarities of comprehension of gender in the Russian philosophy and its inclusion into the philosophy of love is the main subject of this study. Specificity of Russian interpretation of gender problems has a more fundamental appearance and substantial anthological tone. The terminological apparatus for analyzing the issues of gender defines the crucial otherness of the Russian philosophy. The factors, revealing the Orthodox sounding of questions, that are associated with the gender and love, provide a more in-depth analysis of the topic. The authors examine the various aspects of love: as a universal law, passion, and eros. Methodology contains the historical approach and method of conceptual analysis of the authors who dedicated their works to the subject of gender and love. A profound ethical analysis of the key notions along with the extensive attention to the bio-physiological aspect of the phenomenon of love sublime it to joy, compassion, and sincere desire of the good. Comprehension of love as the universal virtue or cosmic greatness can become a moral foundation of the revival and preservation of humaneness.

To the problem of love in Nietzschean philosophy
// Philosophical Thought.
2017. № 1.
P. 57-66.
DOI: 10.7256/2409-8728.2017.1.18833 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=18833
Abstract:
The theme of love in Nietzsche’s works sounded revolutionary for his contemporaries, as well as in sharp contrast with the dominant at that time ethical views. However, even in our time, having experienced the impact of existentialism and philosophical postmodernism, Nietzschean perception of love, remains paradoxical and dialectically complicated. In his doctrine, Nietzsche expresses the challenging antitheses: he replaces the evangelical love to the “neighbor” with love to “others”; altruism – with love to “yourself”; and the very notion of love is tightly intertwines with hatred and war. Nietzschean category of love becomes the subject of a peculiar conceptual interpretation, requiring a certain transformation of thinking, as well as value co-readiness with the philosophical assertions of Nietzsche. The author examines the meanings of Nietzschean understanding of love in the context of human nature, reveals the questions of axiology of love, and reviews its relationship with the notion of hatred. The work demonstrates the in the foundation of pathos of Nietzsche’s doctrine is love namely to the highest beginnings in human being, which dominates over utilitarianism.

Interpersonal Philogenesis
// Philosophical Thought.
2014. № 6.
P. 183-216.

Abstract:
The concept of the interpersonal birth and development of sexual love is offered. As a whole in genesis of love interpersonal, ontogenetic and sociocultural subgenesis is allocated. Love is naturally viewed as the attraction and positive feeling of the spiritual, esthetic and sexual nature. Ontogenetic roots generate the objectless love or a so-called philopotential of a person (from a Greek 'phileo' which means 'love'). The basis of these roots is a psychosexual maturity. Spiritual and esthetic components of the philopotential of a mature personality are also important. Interpersonal philogenesis is the proces of objectification of love as a result of a meeting, communication and relationship of a diad. The supremacy of a psychological factor in the objectification of love, especially in reciprocal and mutual philogenesis is established. The esthetic inclination naturally advances spiritual (the phenomenon of an esthetic advancing), its ultra - a phenomenon – love at first sight ("the genius of pure beauty" – at Pushkin, an arrow of Cupid – in religion, etc.) . In mutual philogenesis the following factors are essential: 1) equality of philopotentials; 2) compliance of esthetic mutually estimates; 3) mutual adequacy to the personified stereotype and individual idea of love. The scheme of a typical philogenesis is offered. For the birth of love the beginning of the relation to the individual as to object of love in unconscious, emotional, informative and behavioural aspects is accepted. Alternativeness (choice problem) in love is studied. Unconscious mechanisms in alternativeness and in philogenesis are discussed. The author also views the phileo-appertception and phileo-catharsis and their communication with alternativeness. Non-reversability of mature, moral love and its ethic and psychological importance, making a basis of advanced marriage and family is proved.
