Abstract

The article attempts to establish new links between the philosophical and journalistic works of I. V. Kireevsky and F. M. Dostoevsky’s sociopolitical program of «soil science», which the writer de-veloped in the 1860s and 1870s in his novels and journalistic articles. The following hypothesis is put forward: the ideas of I. V. Kireevsky’s «visible and invisible» Church, the role of dogmas and autho-rities in the church life infl uenced the formation of the ideology of Ivan Karamazov’s poem «The Grand Inquisitor» in terms of the conflict between the authoritarian model of the Inquisitor and the ideal of «apostolic Orthodoxy» that reflects the main idea of the novel The Karamazov Brothers.
