This book is the philosophical fruit of Nikolai Berdyaev's
first-hand experience of, and reflections on, the crisis of
European civilization in the aftermath of the Great War and the
Russian Revolution. Berdyaev tells us that the modern age, with its
failed Humanism, is being replaced by a new epoch: "the new middle
ages," an epoch of darkness, an epoch of the universal night of
history. Berdyaev asserts that this night is a good thing: in this
darkness, which is a return to the mysterious life of the spirit,
the destruction inflicted by the previous period of "light" will be
healed: "Night is not less wonderful than day; it is equally the
work of God; it is lit by the splendor of the stars and it reveals
to us things that the day does not know. Night is closer than day
to the mystery of all beginning" (pp. 70-71, present volume).
