This title was first published in 2000. This work identifies the
differences between the Russian intellectual approach to reading
Plato and that of other European countries. This study offers a
complex perspective on Russian philosophical learnings up to 1930.
The book contains five chapters with the first aiming to provide
the general institutional context in which Russian 19th century
Plato scholarship developed, caught as it were, between the rise of
the historical sciences and the heavy hand of state interference in
standardizing the educational system in the name of nation building
and modernization. The second chapter attempts to illustrate how
Plato served as a reference in Russian philosophical culture and
the third deals with aspects of Russian philosophy of law. In the
fourth chapter, the author shifts his approach to compare and
contrast a number of reactions to a single dialogue, the "Republic"
and in the final concluding chapter, addresses the question of
whether it is legitimate to speak of a Russian Platonism.
