Description:
Vladimir Solovyov (1853-1900), one of the greatest philosophers of the nineteenth century, was the founder of a tradition of Russian spirituality that brought together philosophy, mysticism, and theology with a powerful social message. A Platonist and a gnostic visionary, as well as a close friend of Dostoevsky, Solovyov was also a prophet who was granted three visions of Sophia, Divine Wisdom. A poet and a profoundly Christian metaphysicist, his works include The Justification of the Good; War, Progress, and the End of History; and The Meaning of Love. This unique, timely book - the first in-depth, full-length portrait of Soloviev as a mystic to appear in English - is the rich fruit of Dr. Allen's lifelong interest in the cultural and spiritual achievements, the mysticism, and the esoteric work of the Russian people during Tsarist times leading up to the twentieth century.
Review:
'Vladimir Soloviev is not well-known in this country, but this book provides an illuminating introduction to his life and thought by an author familiar with the work of Rudolf Steiner... his words live on and will surely resonate with any sensitive reader whose spiritual life will at least in part be mirrored in the experience of Soloviev.' -- David Lorimer, Scientific and Medical Network Review
