The article provides a brief summary of the presentations of the participants of the All-Russian Scientific Conference with international participation “Interdisciplinary research: the nature and prospects of development” (Borisov Readings) ”, which was held on September 27-28, 2019 at the Samara Polytechnic. Particular attention is paid to the substantiation of promising areas of interaction between science and philosophy.

The article deals with the worldview-related, social-cultural and personal factors of the formation of classical natural science.

The article is devoted to the consideration of the ontognoseological foundations of the crisis of historical reference. It shows the internal conceptual dynamics of the “subject of history” in the context of philosophical concepts, as well as scientific conceptual receptions. The proposed systemic version of the semiosis of a historical subject as an invariant theoretical structure. The main emphasis of the research is on the implications of the Marxist concept of the Soviet philosopher M. A. Lifshits. Substantial phases of the crisis of historical reference are proposed for consideration.

The article deals with the philosophical theory of S. A. Askold's miracle. A key role in his concept of a is played by a rethinking of the category of causality, consisting in the separation of the concepts of "causality" and "regularity". The essence of the miraculous is not the abolition of the law of causality, but the overcoming of the lower causality of the higher causality.

The paper deals with the problems related to the realities of modern technogenic society, its Genesis and structural features. Special attention is paid to the problem of human perception of technology and technology as well as the development of the concepts of technocratism and technophobia. The assumption about ambivalence of each of these concepts at their perception in ordinary consciousness is made.

The paper examines the basic interpretations of quantum mechanics, pointed the connection of modern physics with traditional philosophical questions and concludes that at present unrealistic interpretations of quantum mechanics seem to be more reasonable.

The article deals with the problems of definitions of such basic concepts as "music"," theory" and "music theory", established in modern Russian Humanities and pedagogy. It is shown that the definitions of the concept "music" given in the Soviet encyclopedic publications are essentially erroneous and logically untenable; at the same time, the confusion of the concepts "emotion" and "feeling" is demonstrated, as well as the illegality of the concept "imaginative thought" in application to music. The need for a clearer distinction between the concepts of "thought" and "meaning" from the point of view of syntagmatic and actual articulation of a sound utterance (respectively), as well as the possibility of using such a division in music theory, are stated. The author emphasizes the obvious discrepancy in the positioning of educational and practical disciplines (de facto) as musical-theoretical (de jure). It is noted that traditional music theory is limited by the contextual framework of Modern culture and attempts to overcome this limitation made by the Moscow composer, ethnomusicologist and musical philosopher Jivaní Mikhaylov (1938-1995). The need to promote modern humanitarian knowledge in the direction of creating a universal theory of music is emphasized.
