All Things Are Possible is a philosophical work by Lev Shestov, originally published in 1920. The book explores the limitations of reason and the possibilities of faith, arguing that reason alone cannot provide answers to life's ultimate questions. Shestov challenges the dominant philosophical trends of his time, including rationalism and positivism, and instead advocates for a more subjective and personal approach to understanding the world. He draws on a range of literary and philosophical sources, including the works of Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, and Dostoevsky, to develop his ideas. The book is divided into three parts, each exploring a different aspect of Shestov's philosophy. In the first part, he argues that reason is inherently limited and cannot provide a complete understanding of reality. In the second part, he explores the role of faith and the importance of personal experience in shaping our understanding of the world. Finally, in the third part, he examines the relationship between freedom and morality, and the implications of his philosophy for ethical and political issues. All Things Are Possible is a challenging and thought-provoking work that continues to be influential in contemporary philosophical discussions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
