The Flow of Ideas by Irena Grudzinska-Gross

This history of Russian thought was first published in Polish in 1973 and subsequently appeared 2005 in a revised and expanded publication. The current volume begins with Enlightenment thought and Westernization in Russia in the 17th century and moves to the religious-philosophical renaissance of first decade of the 20th century. This book provides readers with an exhaustive account of relationships between various Russian thinkers with an examination of how those thinkers relate to a number of figures and trends in Western philosophy and in the broader history of ideas.
"The beauty of good books about the history of ideas is that they offer new insights and add life to history properAnd a rich transnational context makes the experience of reading such works even more pleasurable and rewarding. This is the case with Walicki's enormous undertaking." (Anton Fedyashin, Slavic Review vol. 75, no. 3, 2016)
