J. Maritain and L. P. Karsavin: exodus to T. Aquinas and N. Cusanus

The paper analyses the commonality of views on the philosophy of A. Bergson, taken by J. Maritain and L.P. Karsavin, as well as their divergence in choosing the main subject of philosophy: for Maritain - it is the being, for Karsavin - the personality. Therefore, T. Aquinas is closer to the first, and N. Cusanus - to the second. The paper also undertakes the attempt to clarify the distinction of their interests determined by the state of the philosophical and religious thoughts of their time.
