Sumario:"This study spans, in a single monograph, the entire life and work of the Russian philosopher Lev Shestov (1866-1938).

The reader will find in Shestov some of the sharpest analyses of authors such as Shakespeare, Nietzsche, Tolstoi, Dostoevskii, Luther, Plotinus, Pascal, Kierkegaard and many others.
