The dam cracks

Kant enters the universities

Thomas Nemeth

pp. 213-236

This chapter concerns the emergence of Kantianism within the secular universities primarily in St. Petersburg, where the soon to be appointed philosophy professor engaged for the first time in Russia in a Kantian philosophy of science that stood as a unique venture. This chapter also deals with the mercurial theater critic Volynskij, who espoused a cryptic "mystical Kantianism," the diffusion of which was hampered by his volatile personality.
