Abstract
The topic is covered in two sections: firstly, the reason is put forward for which the name of Vladimir Solovyov appears in the encyclical Faith and Reason (Fides et ratio), then, in the second section the author draws our attention to Solovyov’s thought as an example of originality in the sphere of culture. The article was inspired by an interesting detail concerning the encyclical Fides et ratio, as follows: in paragraph 74, among those cited as examples of authors who succeeded in their flight on „two wings,“ appears the name of the Russian thinker, Vladimir Solovyov. Solovyov’s thought is already developed in his first book, The Crisis of Western Philosophy (1874), namely, that the relationship between faith and reason reveals the manner in which a culture has resolved the relationship between individual and group authority which, in turn, depends upon the importance that it attributes to philosophy and theology.
