SPIRITUAL AND MORAL ORIENTATIONS IN THE WORLDVIEW DEVELOPMENT OF UKRAINIANS IN MYKOLA SHLEMKEVYCH’S WORKS

Abstract

People’s ideas, produced during the entire history of Ukrainians, about the orientations in the younger generation development necessarily embody national aspirations, traditions, interests, mentality of the people. It is clear that during history different societies produced various ideological orientations, systems of values (which embodied socially meaningful views, ideas, convictions, ideals and expressed attitude towards society, nation, God, family, towards themselves and nature). According to Mykola Shlemkevych (1894–1966) the basis of human life is formed by the idea of building a humane society, building the Ukrainian state and establishing a democratic system in it, therefore the values of the worldview development of the Ukrainians emphasized the most important thing that we strive for in the upbringing of the younger generation – service to God (as the highest the fulfilment of moral values) and Ukraine (national values). Worldview ideas of Mykola Shlemkevych are manifested in caring for humanity, generosity, kindness, love, they highlight a “decent person” with his/her moral virtues and the laws of honour. M. Shlemkevych revealed the spiritual manifestation of man through his/her ability to reflect on life (logos), to arrange it (ethos), to distinguish the beautiful and the ugly in life (eros). Christian values associated with the realization of the significance of the ideals given to us by Christianity point to reliable orientations in the formation of a young man. They are indisputable, eternal, appealing to all peoples, depicted as the achievements of absolute perfection, and they mean that human life must first be filled with high content (a person as a social being living in a particular environment and belonging to a particular community, also needs national orientations within moral values). According to M. Shlemkevych the lifestyle of a “decent person”, his/her moral values restrain people of an elitist type in their desire to go beyond the idea of social duty or duty to the laws of family life.
