Kant and “tabula Russia”

“…The beginning of reforms after Russia's defeat in the Crimean War coincided with the beginning of the neo-Kantian movement that influenced a number of Russian academic philosophers (e.g. 3 Among the most important are the books and articles by Nina Dmitrieva (2007;2022a;2022b), Leonard Kalinnikov (20052008), Alexey Krouglov (2009;2012a;2012b;2020a;2020b), Nelly Motroshilova (2006), Thomas Nemeth (2017), Vladimir Zhuchkov (1994, as well as articles by Anatoly Akhutin (1990) and Sergey Chernov (1994). In terms of methodology, this essay, somewhat unusually for Kantian studies, proceeds not by conceptual and textual analysis, nor by the logical construction of arguments, but by the study of metaphors (Blumenberg 2011(Blumenberg [1960; Lakoff and Johnson 1980) and social and "sociotechnical" imaginaries (Castoriadis 1997(Castoriadis [1975; Taylor 2003; Jasanoff and Kim 2015) -modes of thinking that in Russian history, and perhaps in history as such, have no less dramatic consequences than logical reasoning.…”

Russian Neo-Kantianism Through Eyes of American Researcher. Book Review of Thomas Nemeth’s “Russian Neo-Kantianism: Emergence, Dissemination, Dissolution”

“…В 2017 и 2022 гг. вышли в свет две значительные работы американского исследователя: о восприятии идей И. Канта в царской России [2] и о русском неокантианстве, которые обеспечили Т. Немету место одного из ведущих исследователей русского неокантианства в англоязычной научной среде.…”

“…Кроме этого, смысл высказывания Г. Шпета (из «Очерка о развитии русской философии», 1922 г. ), выбранного Т. Неметом в качестве эпиграфа для книги «Кант в Имперской России» о том, что «философия приобретает национальный характер не в ответах -научный ответ для всех народов и языков -один, а в самой постановке вопросов, в подборе их, в частных модификациях» [2], также справедлив и для сочинения о русском неокантианстве. Преемственность и связь двух этих исследований состоит в выборе персоналий и в некотором пересечении в плоскости исторического времени.…”
