Thinking Orthodox in Modern Russia illuminates the significant role
of Russian Orthodox thought in shaping the discourse of educated
society during the imperial and early Soviet periods. Bringing
together an array of scholars, this book demonstrates that Orthodox
reflections on spiritual, philosophical, and aesthetic issues of
the day informed much of Russia's intellectual and cultural
climate. Volume editors Patrick Lally Michelson and Judith Deutsch
Kornblatt provide a historical overview of Russian Orthodox thought
and a critical essay on the current state of scholarship about
religious thought in modern Russia. The contributors explore a wide
range of topics, including Orthodox claims to a unique religious
Enlightenment, contests over authority within the Russian Church,
tensions between faith and reason in academic Orthodoxy, the
relationship between sacraments and the self, the religious
foundations of philosophical and legal categories, and the effect
of Orthodox categories in the formation of Russian literature.
