Abstract

The author examines the theoretical and methodological foundations of the philosophy of history of the New City, created by the prominent representatives of the historical science of the Russian emigration: G. Fedotov, F. Stepun, and N. Berdyaev. There is shown the relationship between their historical accounts and the methodology of interdisciplinary synthesis. An emphasis is made on the interaction in the philosophy of history and historiography of the New City participants between the historical comparative studies, hermeneutics, ethno-psychology, and cultural anthropology. A conclusion is made about the methodological innovativeness of the thinkers of the Russian religious renaissance, conditioned by the experience of living through the historical disasters such as world wars and revolutions, by the Decline of Europe intuition and the formation of a new era of world history
