Shestov (1866-1938) was a Russian existential philosopher known for his "Philosophy of Despair". Born in Kiev into a Jewish family he emigrated to France in 1921, fleeing the aftermath of the October Revolution, and lived in Paris until his death. This book which investigates the difference between Russian and European literature was first published in 1905 and is reprinted from the authorised English translation of 1920 with a foreword by D H Lawrence who was a great admirer of Shestov's work.

Shestov, Leo

Echo Library

Originally published in 1920, this work is a translation of the 1905 work by the Ukranian/Russian existentialist philosopher Shestov. All Things Are Possible draws on the aphoristic style of Nietzsche and deals with as diverse issues as science, rationalism and religion. With a foreword by D. H. Lawrence. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
