The young man's distinctive tone In thought was Opposition to positivism, humanitarianism and the ideas of Western civilisation, and throughout his student days he propounded in many arguments a lively belief in Russia and the Russian idea, in orthodoxy and mysticism.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex relationship between war and Christianity, offering a unique perspective from the heart of Russia. Through a series of conversations between a diverse group of individuals ââ â a seasoned general, a contemplative politician, a young prince, a curious lady, and a mysterious Mr. Z ââ â the author explores the evolving views on war and its moral implications. Set against the backdrop of historical events and drawing upon the rich tapestry of Russian culture, the book examines how the traditional glorification of war as a noble and even holy pursuit clashes with the growing pacifist movement. The characters grapple with questions of personal conscience, the role of faith in shaping attitudes towards violence, and the possibility of reconciling Christian ideals with the harsh realities of conflict. By juxtaposing contrasting viewpoints and weaving together philosophical arguments with historical anecdotes, the author challenges readers to confront their own assumptions about war and peace. Ultimately, the book's insights invite us to consider whether war can ever be truly justified within a Christian framework, and whether the pursuit of peace requires a fundamental shift in our understanding of both individual and national responsibility.
