(4.8 stars; 22 reviews)

A passionate exponent of Russian Existentialism, Lev Shestov is little known in the English-speaking world but had an extensive influence on philosophy and literature in the first half of the 20th century, his influence imprinting thinkers and writers as diverse as D. H. Lawrence, Nicholas Berdyaev, Georges Bataille, and Edmund Husserl. Driven out of Russia by the Bolshevik Revolution, Shestov continued to live, study, and write in Paris, where he died in 1955. - Summary by Expatriate (5 hr 9 min)

Reviews


(5 stars)

A must read for anyone into existentialism. Honestly, though, a must read from anyone into philosophy. He gets much closer to the essence of philosophy than most others.

Excellent reading.
