It contains definitions connected with nature of art and catalogue of its functions. Also there are goals, values, ideals, art and artist’s mission for-mulations. In fact in this work an important element of the Stanislavsky system – a concept of “super-objective” – is developed.

It contains combining theoretical correctness and practical effectiveness of the definition at the same time: super-objective must help a searching artist (both young and mature) to solve his professional tasks successfully. According to the author, in this definition well-known statement by Fyodor Dostoevsky “Beauty will save the world” is developed and extended.
