Disturber of the peace: Touches to the portrait of A. G. Rappaport

Alexander Herbertovich Rappaport is a philosopher, architect, art historian, author of many articles and books on the theory of architecture and art history, author of the unique blog “Tower and Maze”, where he regularly publishes his reflections. A huge influence on Rappaport’s formation was his work in the Moscow Methodological Circle of Georgy Petrovich Shchedrovitsky (MMC). In 1979 he left the MMC and since the early 1980s he has been engaged in phenomenology, a direction in philosophy, the founder of which was Edmund Husserl. Most of A. G. Rappaport’s articles and books are written within the framework of phenomenology, but the school of thought that Rappaport underwent at MMK had an undeniable influence on his work. Rappaport’s works merge Shchedrovitsky’s methodology, phenomenology and poetry.
