The Russian Idea - Book by Nikolai Berdyaev

In The Russian Idea, philosopher Nikolai Berdyaev explores the unique spiritual and philosophical character of Russia. He argues that Russia's destiny is marked by a tension between Eastern Orthodoxy, the idea of the soul, and the materialism of the West. Berdyaev contrasts Russian spiritualism with Western rationalism, suggesting that Russia's greatness lies in its potential to overcome the fragmentation of Western civilization through a synthesis of spiritual and social unity.
