V. V. Milkov on the Historical Thought of Ancient Russia
One of the important problems of the work of the Russian academic V. V. Milkov was the history of the philosophical and historical thought of the Russian Middle Ages. The relevance of the formulation of this problem is determined by the question of the degree of dependence of Russian historical works from the medieval cultural intertext, which wasbasised on Christian Holy Scripture. Without denying such dependence, V. V. Milkov convincingly shows that in choosing the object of their philosophical and historical understanding, in their assessments, Russian scribes, following this intertext, maintained their independence as authors. Their positions were original and allow us to judge the originality of Russian medieval historical writings.
