Article Title：Posthumanism and Russian religious thought

Abstract：
I argue that one of the central aspects characterizing the philosophical horizon at the threshold of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries is the erosion of the humanist idea, i.e. 'posthumanism'. Russian religious philosophy is pervaded by considerations of humanism and posthumanism (antihumanism). The latter ascribes central significance to the category of 'Godmanhood' with which the leading Russian philosophers opposed the Nietzschean category of the Overman. But all of Germany philosophy can be reproached for having forsaken man. The 'posthumanist' narrative about man and God is an extreme, indeed pathological symptom of philosophy waiting for Embodiment.

Keywords:  embodiment; Godmanhood; humanism; Overman; posthumanism; religious thinking; the 'death of God'
