Reviews

For the last two centuries, serious Russian thought about language has been nourished by sources alien to the current conventions of scholarly Anglophone discourse. In place of the snappy pragmatic essay or the empirical argument based on clinical evidence, we find Neoplatonism, the theology of the Eastern Orthodox Church, and German Romantic philosophy. Thomas Seifrid's patient, lucid treatment of this difficult and vital material will matter to anyone interested in literature, philosophy of language, speculative theology, sociology, and political rhetoric in Russia. - Caryl Emerson, Princeton University
