Based on this description, an interpretation of the axiological dimension of Volodymyr Shynkaruk’s (founder of the Kyiv anthropological school) philosophical work is proposed. Unknown or little-known facts of his biography are interpreted as life foundations that set the direction of his philosophical searches. According to the author, V.

V. Shynkaruk created a romanticized version of neo-Marxism. At the same time, the content of his activity was the revival of Ukrainian philosophy as an integral part of the European discourse.
