In his last, uncompleted essay Teoreticheskaja filosofija (1897-1899) Vladimir Solov'ev seems to acknowledge the central statements of Kant's epistemology and philosophy of subjectivity in a manner which has lead many interpretators to think that he wanted to revise substantially his earlier philosophy. A closer look at Solov'ev's arguments show, however, that this is not the case: his critique of the Cartesian concept of subjectivity does not allow him to embrace Kantianism, either. So it must be stated that even Solov'ev does not, in the last instance, abandon the primarily Anti-Kantian positions of Russian idealism.
