Valentin Ferdinandovich Asmus (Russian: Валенти́н Фердина́ндович А́смус; December 30, 1894 – June 4, 1975) was a Soviet philosopher. He was one of the small group who continued the classical European philosophical tradition through the early Soviet times.[1] He was an independent thinker and unorthodox Marxist,[2] with interests in the history of philosophy and aesthetics.
Russian philosopher
He graduated from St. Vladimir University in 1919, then moved to Moscow in 1927.[3] At this period he attacked the views of William James.[4] In the mid-1920s, he was a theorist of literary constructivism.[5]
Through his wife Irina, he became a friend of Boris Pasternak, from about 1931.[6] His major work Marx and Bourgeois Historicism (1933) was influenced by György Lukács.[7] At this point an opponent of formal logic, he changed position and wrote a textbook on it. There is a story of his being summoned to see Joseph Stalin, and required to give logic lectures to Red Army generals.[8]
He was Professor at Moscow State University from 1942 to 1972.[9] In the 1960s he edited Plato, with Aleksei Losev. Outside the Soviet Union, Asmus was mostly known for his contributions to studying Immanuel Kant.
