"O death, where is your sting?" Nikolai Fedorov’s and Vasily Rozanov’s relation to death

The purpose of this work is to analyze the relation to death by two Russian thinkers: Nikolai Fedorov and Vasily Rozanov. At the beginning, Fedorov’s attitude is presented, who claimed that death needs to be defeated and all the dead people should be resurrected. Fedorov understood this task as a continuation of the mission of Christ and the realization of the fundamental postulate of Christianity – the victory over death and the salvation of a man. Then, the text deals with the Rozanov’s attitude to death. His relationship to Christianity was rather restrained – he did not accept the need of resurrection and transformation of nature. According to Rozanov, the power of death is neutralized by birth of a child. In conclusion, it is said that although at first glance the attitude to death by both thinkers seems to be opposite, in fact, hatred of death and glorification of life connect them. Moving in opposite directions, Fedorov and Rozanov reach the same point
