In the history of thought, Konstantin Leontiev is one of the names that keeps being returned to.
The record lists Konstantin Leontiev as Russian philosopher (1831-1891).
Konstantin Leontiev was born at Kudinovo in 1831. His recorded nationality is Russia. He studied at Medical faculty of Moscow University and Imperial Moscow University.
The nineteenth century produced systems on a grand scale, and then the reaction against them.
The discipline keeps its dead in print, because the arguments are still open.
That the work was done from Russia matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Konstantin Leontiev died in 1891, aged 60. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
