The Oxford Handbook of Russian Religious Thought offers comprehensive surveys and analyses of historical periods (Rus’ and Muscovy, imperial Russia, the Soviet Union), nineteenth-century currents and figures, including authors such as Dostoevsky and Tolstoy, a broad coverage of the “Russian Religious-Philosophical Renaissance” and religiously informed art movements in Russian modernism, Russian emigre thought as well as the types of religious thought in the Soviet Union. The last part assesses the contribution of Russian religious thought to religious thinking globally and discusses the main conclusions of the volume.
