Abstract
An attempt is proposed to overcome the tough opposition of the sciences and humanities. Both types of scientific knowledge have been realized in three ways of their presentation: factual descriptions, establishment of deterministic dependencies and the target context. Such a common platform allows us to specify their interaction. Thus, the results of psy­chophysiology studies of the brain demonstrate the potential of humanitarian concepts (nar­ratives, memory, self-awareness, freedom), which allows us to clarify the possibilities of in­terdisciplinary research and the “convergence” of humanitarian and natural-scientific knowledge in technological applications.
