Abstract: The article is devoted to the analysis of the manifestation of subjectness of metamodernity. The relevance of the study is due to the need to revise some of the features of metamodernism in connection with the realities of modern culture. Although metamodernism is not a philosophical system, the author substantiates the idea that, oscillating between modernist logocentrism and postmodern nihilism, metamodernism adheres to the principles of Kantian “transcendental idealism” and, striving for transcendence, overcomes immanence. The basis of metamodern aesthetics is also an object-oriented ontology, which, without destroying the hierarchies that will threaten the human place in the world, offers the means with which one can create an updated map of being, taking into account all its complexity and diversity. Going beyond postmodern detachment and alienation, metamodernism appeals to ethics, aesthetics, authenticity, hope, and the awakening of sensuality. Metamodernism is characterized by holism, connectionism and assimilation. These features are shown using examples from the field of fine arts, literature, cinema, as well as modern educational practices.
