• IDEAS OF I. KANT IN THE PHILOSOPHY OF RUSSIAN PERSONALISM
  Authors: E.E. Mikhailova
  Abstract: The influence of Kant's philosophy on the views of representatives of Russian personalism at the turn of the XIX–XX centuries is studied. It is noted that each personalist philosopher – A.A. Kozlov, N.O. Lossky, L.M. Lopatin – was interested in a special aspect of Kant's legacy. The attention is focused on ethical and psychological researches of Lopatin, who creatively activated a number of Kant's provisions. It is revealed that Lopatin as a supporter of "ethical personalism" reinterpreted the moral imperative formulated by Kant in an ethical-psychological context. It is concluded that Lopatin's moral choice, in comparison with the postulates of Kant's philosophy, is subjective and can resonate through the prism of personal experience.
