The content, methods and position of nonlinear dynamics in science are proposed to be characterized by the concept of "frontierism". The genre of a textbook on nonlinear dynamics is considered in the context of the emergence of a cosmogonic ritual (according to Eliade, Toporov and Evzlin). The educational text is interpreted as a replicator, that is, a unit of self-reproducing information. The features of the functioning of such a replicator and the process of creating a textbook are analyzed from the point of view of nonlinear dynamics.
