Résumé
This vintage book contains a collection of essays written by the influential Russian philosopher, Lev Isaakovich Shestov. One of the most delicate and individual of modern Russian critics, Shestov was a radical empiricist and proto-existentialist thinker who integrated literary theory… and philosophical thought in a masterful way that inspired such minds as Camus, Dostoyevsky, Deleuze, D. H. Lawrence, and Bataille. Included in this collection are the essays: "Anton Chekhov", "The Gift of Prophecy", "Penultimate Words", and "The Theory of Knowledge".-Print ed.
