Rosja, katolicyzm i sprawa polska

A leading historian of Russian thought traces the influence of Catholicism on nineteenth-century Russian thinkers. Some of them reasoned that Rome, and with it 'Jesuit Poland', which had betrayed the Orthodox Slavic community, was to blame for the split in Christianity. The book looks at the Russian Jesuit Ivan Gagarin, the views of Alexander Herzen and the Catholic interests of Vladimir Solovyov, and helps explain the mutual distrust of Orthodoxy and Rome, and the difficult neighbourhood of Russians and Poles.
