It offers keys to understanding his thought, while also tracing the historical itinerary of his work. Shestov’s thought is not only interesting in itself, as a “philosophy fighting against philosophy,” but also because it reveals an entire world of cultural connections in its extraordinarily keen exploration of other “souls.” The reader will find in Shestov some of the sharpest analyses of authors such as Shakespeare, Nietzsche, Tolstoi, Dostoevskii, Luther, Plotinus, Pascal, Kierkegaard and many others. This study will better determine the controversial and fascinating philosopher’s place in the history of Russian and Western thought.Shestov, Lev,-1866-1938PHILOSOPHY / Individual PhilosophersbisacshChekhov.Dostoevsky.Ibsen.Jewish thought.Judaism.Kierkegaard.Lev Shestov.Merezhkovskii.Nietzsche.Nihilism.Russian philosophy.Shakespeare.Sologub.Tolstoy.Turgenev.Shestov, Lev,-1866-1938.PHILOSOPHY / Individual Philosophers.197Oppo Andrea871820MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910794471503321Lev Shestov3865568UNINA
