Alexei Khomyakov: The Choice of Light

28.05.2024

Formulated by Odoevsky and Venevitinov, and more broadly by the circle of Russian philosophers, the ‘mandate’ to create a Russian philosophy has been a task extending over two centuries. The Slavophiles, who also emerged from this circle, were the first to respond to it. Later, the Eurasianists, and subsequently the Neo-Eurasianists at the end of the 20th century, continued this work. Ultimately, this ‘mandate’ was perceived as an imperative in Noomakhia and other works focused on exploring the possibility of a Russian philosophy.
