The article introduces a multidisciplinary approach to the analysis of the structure of consciousness as a multidimensional system. It focuses on the basic components of consciousness and their relations.
To the bright memory of philosopher Merab Konstantinovich MamardashviliLoss awakens consciousness. "Philosophy," said Merab Konstantinovich, "is consciousness aloud." He constantly created around himself a tense zone of consciousness: consciousness for him was the principal tool and the starting point of analysis, Consciousness opened to him, as a philosopher, the way to realization of one's own person-by opening the door to the total sum of attained knowledge, to thought and being. Those who had the good fortune to know, to see, and to listen to him will always remember his thought and his personal manner. But we shall never hear his consciousness. One consolation is that his consciousness is also expressed in textsit exists in culture, and hence cannot be rolled back. It is a pity that in conversations with him, we psychologists complained about the impoverishment or decline of standards in psychology, about wasting our achievements in cultural-historical analysis of the mind and consciousness, about the underdevelopment of the science of man, the lack of integral conceptions of man. We did not realize that Merab Konstantinovich personified a new consciousness and a new thinking about man, pervaded by a passionate concern for man's present and future. He did not care about culture and history in themselves, but about man in culture and in history-man, who to be as he is must continually surpass himself. Therein he saw the implicit Russian text 0 1991 by " Pedagogika" Publishers and "Voprosy "Miry soznaniia i struktura soznaniia." Vop.
