History of Russian Thought - From Enlightenment to Marxism

History of Russian Thought, which reveals the original side of 18th / 19th century Russian thought dependent on Western European tradition, is a work that will satisfy all readers interested in the subject. The background presented by Walicki is the painful period in which Russian intellectuals oscillated between Westernization and preserving tradition, but it was the period that fed the events that would completely change the fate of the society.
In each chapter of the book, we observe that the discussions give rise to a completely different world view and a system of thought unique to Russia. Walicki explains how old and new ideas can come together in this movement that aims to rapidly modernize such a crowded society; It discusses in detail the change that European philosophy underwent in the eyes of Russian intellectuals and all the different future fictions. Thanks to the examination of Russian thought in a historical framework, we discover the surprising continuity of the facts that created the debates and their predictions about the course of society.
In his work, written with the accumulation of eighteen years of detailed research, Andrzej Walicki impressively tells the struggle of Russian intellectuals who laid the foundations of a brand new nation without breaking away from their traditions and without forgetting their social conditions.
In this classic work, which presents Russian thought from the broadest perspective, based on historical-philosophical problems, political and religious debates, social thought and even literature, you will witness how the movement of intellectuals who held themselves responsible for the future of Russia with their passion for modernization created the historical rupture that occurred at the beginning of the 20th century, step by step. .
