He is an even more intriguing figure in the religious world, given his path from Russian Orthodoxy to nihilism and subsequently Roman Catholicism, and finally back to Russian Orthodoxy. ***??The Philosophical Principles of Integral Knowledge*** is the earliest elaboration of the major ideas that would occupy Solovyov throughout his life. Completed when he was only twenty-four, this treatise outlines key concepts of his philosophical system - theosophy, theocracy, and theurgy - within the overarching framework of integral knowledge, which he understood as attainable in the \"true philosophy\" that connects humankind with the eternal kingdom of God. Taken as a whole, Solovyov's philosophy offers a powerful defense of religion in both mystical and logical terms.??Translator Valeria Z. Nollan skillfully brings out the nuances of Solovyov's rigorous exegesis and his self-confidence born of his extremely thorough studies.
