Vladimir Solovyov (1853-1900) was one of the most remarkable
figures of the 19th century. He was the most important Russian
speculative thinker of that century, publishing major works on
theoretical philosophy, the philosophy of religion, and ethics. He
also wrote profound religious verse, much of which is translated
into English here for the first time. Included are all of the short
lyric poems; Three Meetings, an autobiographical poem of mystical
visions; The White Lily, a comical-mystical play, a genre invented
by Solovyov; and a ground-breaking essay (translated into English
for the first time) on Solovyov's poetry by the eminent theologian
Sergius Bulgakov. The most important poems are sophianic, in that
they express a personal relation to Sophia, whom Solovyov
encountered several times during his life. This book presents an
aspect of Solovyov's work that most readers are unaware of; it
enables us to watch a spiritual genius plumbing the depths of
cosmic truth.
