Synopsis

This paper explores the intricate relationship between religion and culture in Russian philosophical thought, emphasizing eschatological perspectives and their impact on cultural development. It examines key figures such as Vladimir Solovyov, Nikolai Berdyaev, and Georgy Fedotov, analyzing their interpretations of history, freedom, and creativity in the context of Christian eschatology. The study highlights the tension between secular progress and religious transcendence, arguing that Russian religious philosophy offers a unique synthesis of cultural dynamism and spiritual anticipation. By engaging with European intellectual traditions, these thinkers contribute to contemporary discussions on the role of religion in societal transformation.
