Widely acknowledged as the most important Russian thinker of the XIXth century, Vladimir Soloviev’s place in the landscape of the world philosophy nevertheless remains uncertain. Approaching him through a single synoptic lens, this book foregrounds his unique envisioning of the interaction between humanity and the material world. By investigating the development of a single theme in his work – his idea of the “spiritualization of matter ” the “task” of humanity - Smith constructs a rounded picture of Soloviev’s overall importance to an understanding of the XIXth century thought, as well as to modern theology and philosophy. The picture that emerges is of a writer whose contribution to a Christian philosophy of matter resonates with many of the religious debates of modernity.
