【 摘 要 】

Two philosophical strategies of chaos ordering that were offered by Renaissance philosophers are analyzed: Ordering by means of mind and ordering by means of love. It is reasoned that both of these studies dates back to Antique philosophers’ ideas. Such supporters of ordering by mind doctrine as Coluccio Salutati, Giannozzo Manetti are pointed out. These thinkers believed that a person is able to cope with disorder of reality efficiently when he follows his mind. Among supporters of ordering by love idea such philosophers as Marsilio Ficino, Giovanni Pico della Mirandola are singled out. These thinkers treated love as one of cosmogonical basis. They wrote that love is brought to birth by chaos as its inner striving to self­organization, to transformation into harmony.  It is also claimed that in Renaissance the strategy of scientific comprehension of chaos appears. It is grounded that this strategy is not identical to philosophical strategies of chaos ordering, though it is close to them. Among representatives of this approach to studying chaos such thinkers as Paracelsus, Leonardo da Vinci are pointed out.
