The book of Aza Alibekovna Tahoe-Godi is dedicated to the wonderful thinker of our century Alexei Fedorovich Losev (1893-1988). It was based on the personal memories of the author, witness and participant in the events of decades, as well as materials from the unique Losev archive. Losev appears in the book not only as an outstanding philosopher, but also as an Orthodox person who shared her fate with her homeland. Losev's path is characteristic: religious and philosophical societies; meetings with about. P. Florensky, about. S. Bulgakov, I. A. Ilyin and other major philosophers of the Silver Age; the publication in the 1920s of dangerous books that led him to prison; camp, blindness, forced twenty-year silence, the death of his home.
