(The writer concludes his letters to Mr. N. N. with remarks
to the effect that count Tolstoï’s philosophy in all its
aspects and phases is manifestly characterized by a principle
of _dualism_. In the development of this general principle
through the different phases of his system and in his theory of
knowledge this dualism might assume the name of rationalism,
in metaphysics, that of idealism, and in ethics the name of
ascetical, quietistic eudemonism.

and ecclesiastical ‘questions’.” Vladimir Solovieff is the
