V.V. Rozanov (1856–1919) was the most prominent figure in the heyday of Russian philosophy of the “Silver Age,” a subtle stylist and creator of a philosophical theory that was original to the point of paradox—a theory that had a significant influence on the minds of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. and has experienced a kind of “rebirth” today. Years and decades pass, but the power and depth of Rozanov’s thought is still timeless... “Fallen Leaves” is a unique experience for Russian philosophy. Rozanov does not set out his teachings, his constructed worldview, he feels, reflects and writes down his thoughts and observations on pieces of paper. Why is the work called “Fallen Leaves”? Because in the original his manuscript consisted of two boxes with a heap of scribbled leaves. “Fallen Leaves” is one of the most famous works of V.V. Rozanova. It is based on the principle of random notes: notes in the margins, thoughts, impressions, sometimes formless and inconsistent.
