The outstanding Russian thinker Semyon Frank worked in many areas: he wrote articles on social and religious philosophy, notes on human nature and the ethics of social relations. However, the most significant was his contribution to the philosophy of culture. In her monograph, Inna Nevleva analyzes Frank’s views on the cultural interaction between Russia and the West, his concept of unity (according to the thinker, the world is indivisible and cannot be decomposed into components, as rationalist philosophy does), and also explores Frank’s reasoning about spiritual quest in Russian fiction.
