Summary/Abstract: Dostoyevsky’s homeland is a country, in which questions about Russia have been posed for centuries, determined in particular by — central for its philosophical, intellectual and cultural tradition – finally comprehended idea of “understanding Russia”. Russian questions about Russia are becoming a subject of heuristically fruitful philosophical analysis especially when the cognitive possibilities created by the post Kantian theoretical perspective are used in the conducted research. Every cognitive attempt determined by the question about Russia – and the final intention of its comprehension or demonstrating its intellectual inconceivability – remains inevitably a subjective act, and the “essence” of Russianess, discovered as a result, is not something from beyond the initiated process of sense formation, but rather constitutes a correlative to a specific subjective intention. Realizing the above mentioned creates a possibility of recognizing the general a priori framework, which it marks out for the sphere of Russians’ self-recognition aspirations and subjective order which they assume, and also the factors, conditions and limits of the acceptable heterogenization of their basic conclusions, types of specification, character and extent of a possible self problematization of the autonegation and self reproduction mechanisms.
