Abstract
Aim. To assess applying of conclusions from German thinkers on understanding the Motherland essence, and to analyze objections in German observations from the standpoint of Russian philosophy.
Methodology. The key research methods were socio-philosophical, logical-philosophical, and the method of contextual analysis. The works of German and Russian thinkers are analyzed, and their arguments are evaluated.
Results. It is proved that the conclusions of German thinkers contain ideas that are critically evaluated and developed in Russian philosophical thought, and, consequently, stimulate knowledge of the Motherland.
Research implications. The invariant of the category “Motherland” is revealed through a comparative analysis of the theses of German and Russian thinkers, and the objective characteristics of the Motherland are identified.
