Works Inspired by Berdyaev
Creativity & Redemption
An essay inspired by Berdyaev & Kandinsky, by Tom Willett
A World of Love and How to Get There (PDF Format).
This essay was originally an on-line course created by Vern Rossman, of substantial scope and depth, and influenced to a significant extent by Berdyaev.
Real Life is Meeting
Life is Commitment
The author of both these works is J.H.Oldham who wrote at the time of World War II. The author tries to find a framework to understand a situation of great instability and change, in many ways similar to what we are experiencing today. Berdyaev seems to have been a considerable support in helping him get to a position of strength and insight.
