ABOUT THE EXPANDING SPACES

Annotation

In the article the space is differentiated into the physical space, the sociocultural space and the internal world of a human. The cognitive attitude of the subject to all three spaces and the objects that fill them is shown. Moreover, in the physical space, this is a subject-object relationship, in the sociocultural the place of objects is often replaced by another subject, and in the inner world of person, the object is intentional, that is, it becomes a part of the knowing subject. Arguments are proposed in favor of considering sociocultural spaces and the inner world as multidimensional spaces. In case of the inner world, dimensions are interpreted as infinite levels. The physical space has a property of expand limited by physical laws. The expansion of sociocultural space, which includes many types of it, has signs of unlimited and measurable, which is shown by the example of historical, generic, statistical, scientific and theatrical spaces. The property of sociocultural spaces and the inner world of a human is highlighted as expanding and narrowing. The inner world of a human, as well as the sociocultural space, is not limited in expansion, but differs from it in immeasurability. The dialectical connection of the outer and inner worlds is noted. An example of the expansion of the inner world is a thought and its ability to infinitely produce meanings. Thinking and a thought are compared with time and eternity.
