Description
Widely acknowledged as the most important Russian thinker of the nineteenth century, Vladimir Soloviev's place in the landscape of world philosophy nevertheless remains uncertain.
Approaching him through a single synoptic lens, this book foregrounds his unique envisioning of the interaction between humanity and the material world.
By investigating the development of a single theme in his work - his idea of the 'spiritualisation of matter', the 'task' of humanity - Smith constructs a rounded picture of Soloviev's overall importance to an understanding of nineteenth-century thought, as well as to modern theology and philosophy.
The picture that emerges is of a writer whose contribution to a Christian philosophy of matter resonates with many of the religious debates of modernity.
