Abstract
The author of the article raises the question of the aesthetic content of the real historical process. The article examines history as a dramatic space of human development, as a locus and topos of the manifestation of his creative abilities, as a process that can be studied and described in the categories of classical aesthetics. According to the author, the objective course of history itself has aesthetic characteristics, which makes it possible to use the concepts and categories of aesthetics in the study of historical events. The source of the aesthetic fullness of a historical event is the creative nature of human activity in general, the revolutionary impulse, heroic enthusiasm and creative potential of mass popular movements. The phenomenon of social revolution is presented as an event in which the aesthetic component of historical action is concentrated. The global revolutionary social shifts of our time are largely achieved through the selfless steps and inspired social creativity of popular movements, whose participants, whether they realize it or not, are engaged in practical, often heroic, transformation of an imperfect world and the creation of a new, more perfect one, the harmony of which is revealed as constructive solvability contradictions.
