Translators Jakim and Bird (the latter of Dickinson College) introduce Western readers to the writings of the founders of the first Russian religious-philosophical movement in the mid-1800s: Khomiakov, a poet of the Pushkin school, and literary critic Kireevsky. Core concepts are sobornost (ecumenicity) and integral knowledge. Includes the French writings of Khomiakov defending the Orthodox Church against Romanism and Protestantism, and 20th century responses to him by Florensky and Berdiav.
