Abstract

The First World War caused great confusion in the minds of Russian philosophers. One of the most bizarre manifestations of this tendency was an attempt to derive its intellectual roots of German classical philosophy, primarily from the legacy of I. Kant. As a result, the Slavophile stream in the public consciousness took on the character of outright Germanophobia. A provocative role in this was played by the speeches of the young religious philosopher V.F. Ern.
