- Abstract
- The article, based mainly on material from the book "Past and Unfulfilled" shows the historiosophy of F. A. Stepun not as a religious-philosophical concept of history, but as a living vision of the extraordinary, dramatic an catastrophic historical events by its active participant and protagonist, who, at the same time, was a bright, original and many-sided personality fully manifested during the First World War, two Revolutions of 1917, Civil war and period of war communism in Soviet Russia. A distinctive feature of the historiosophical views of the thinker and writer is a critique of moralism, that was considered as a complex phenomenon of the aberration of the moral and ethical consciousness of the Russian intellectual, complicated by the soteriological claims. The historiosophy of F. Stepun can be named a living one by right because during all his life in exile his thoughts about Russia were accompanied by the painful feelings of conscience of a person who deeply realized and felt the personal guilt and responsibility for the social disaster happened in his country.
