Anton Kartashev and His Participation in the Religious Movement Supporting Church Reform in Russia

Summary/Abstract: At the beginning of the XXth century, a religious movement initiated by intelligentsia supporting Church reform emerged in Russia. It was triggered by The New Religious Consciousness (NRC ), in the center of which there was teaching of neo-Christians about the unity of spirit and flesh, “the heavenly” and “the earthly”. Its metaphysics declared new additions to Christian dogma, called for spiritualising the outcomes of psychophysical and cultural endeavours of a person. A.V. Kartashev, a novice Church historian, got interested in The New Religious Consciousness and soon became one of the movement’s leaders. This period of his life is the least known. The article presents Kartashev’s viewpoint of 1901-1916 and systematises information about his public actions. The author comes to the conclusion that Kartashev held his own view on The New Religious Consciousness dogma and his own opinion on Church reform.
