Michel Mervaud, Hegel or Tolstoi? Pavel Bakunin in his writings and correspondence with his niece, E.N. Vul'f.
When presenting the extracts of the hitherto unpublished correspondence of Pavel Bakunin, one is forced to remember who was this little known brother of the famous revolutionary. Such is the aim of the introductory essay. After having briefly recounted the essential periods of his life, the article proceeds to analyse the two philosophical works of Pavel Bakunin, establishing the relationship of his thought to Hegel's philosophy with which it is connected, and to that of Tolstoi to which Pavel's thought is sometimes compared. As a matter of fact - as the author endeavours to prove -, P. Bakunin' s religious thought is an original one and deserves to be studied per se, so much so that it has been said that it was the precursor of personalist philosophies. Directed against positivism and scientism, Bakunin' s ideology comprises conservative aspects which clearly appear in his correspondence with his brother Mikhail or when he analyses the feminist outlooks, as he does in one of his books.
The introduction ends by a presentation of correspondence, which expresses the main subjects of P. Bakunin's thought, dominated by his belief in God and in the immortality of soul. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
