JUBILEE OF MOSCOW STATE UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
The article deals with the history of the Department of Philosophy as a sub-division of the Moscow University since its establishment in 1755. The Department of Philosophy had a very complex history: it disappeared from the list of university departments, then it was restored again. In 1850, it was divided into the two independent parts: the department of history and philology and department of physics and mathematics. Only in the Soviet period, in 1941, Department of Philosophy had been reestablished as the institution created for special philosophical training. The 75th anniversary of the re-establishment of the Department of Philosophy in the structure of Moscow University was marked as an event.
