Abstract

Abstract Chapter 11 presents the concepts of Nikolai Berdyaev and Lev Shestov who highlighted the mysterious dimension of the whole of reality from the perspective of his existential philosophy. For Berdyaev the main feature of the universe is mystery because it is coherent with the capacity for free, unforced cognition. On the one hand, for Berdyaev the rationality of the world illustrates divine rationality, but, on the other, he stressed that conceptual knowledge does not capture the mystery of the world and specifically does not solve the problems of existence. Lev Shestov was one of the more radical opponents of the expression religious truths by means of exploiting philosophical terms, and separated faith from reason. At the same time, he did not so much deny science, as the field of rational activity, which is scientism.
