The reception of the concept of “pan-unity” in the teological system of St. Justin of 'Celije

In this article, the author discusses the reception of the concept of “pan-unity” in the theological system of St. Justin of Celije. Te Venerable Justin (Popovic) was a thinker who had experienced the significant influence of Russian religious and philosophical thought and the metaphysics of pan-unity in particular. Te degree of such influence is evidenced, for example, by the fact that it was Popovic who used Vladimir Solovʹyov’s concept of “pan- unity” in his course on dogmatic theology to express the key ideas of his system. Te article proposes a key to the reconstruction of the system of the saint, which includes both the more traditional (that is, historical), and the original (that is, ontological) levels. Some aspects of Popovic’s doctrine of unity in logos are compared with the ideas of Russian metaphysics of pan-unity, which allows us to talk about their ideological affinity. At the same time, the author stresses that the reduction of the saint’s work to purely protective or educational tasks would be an extreme and unacceptable simplification, as would be his inclusion among the representatives of Christian modernism. Te original concept of pan-unity in the work of the Serbian saint cannot be identified either with Vladimir Solovʹyov’s system or with the systems of Solovʹyov’s disciples
