In addition, the book features two appendices: one that sketches the early Russian reception of French positivism against which Solov’ëv reacted in the name of metaphysics and another that presents a fascinating look at the Solov’ëv family background, which produced at once intellectual as well as dysfunctional members.

The author of numerous articles on 19th and 20th century Russian philosophy, Thomas Nemeth has also contributed entries on Russian philosophy to philosophical encyclopedias and translated into English Gustav Shpet’s 1914 treatise Appearance and Sense, which introduced Husserl’s phenomenology to a Russian audience. His translation into English of Gustav Shpet’s 1914 treatise Appearance and Sense in the Phaenomenologica series remains the only complete English translation of any of Shpet’s books. His Gramsci’s Philosophy: A Critical Study contrasted the Italian Marxist’s historicism against Crocean idealism and Husserlian phenomenology. After obtaining his PhD in philosophy from the University of Louvain, Nemeth held post-doctoral fellowships in Germany and Australia.

"Solov'ev's metaphysics is extremely rich in ideas, and, perhaps most importantly, inescapable to anyone seeking to understand the history of Russian metaphysics. For, as the first systematic Russian philosopher, Solov'ev had a great influence on the posterity of Russian philosophy and, to some extent, framed the way philosophy would be exercised by his successors. ... This book is thus a must-read to anyone interested in the history of Russian metaphysics." (Frederic Tremblay, Quaestio, Yearbook of the History of Metaphysics, Vol. 13, 2013)
