The most prominent writers of the Russian generation, Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, were basically anti-Western, opposed to the French republic, market economy and atheism.
They call the Western civilization represented by France nihilism, and they firmly believe that Russia has a special mind, and Russia cannot do without the Orthodox Church. They hated property inequality and demanded a socialist-style claim to equality.
They were the greatest Russian thinkers, well versed in Western thought and literature, but they opposed Western civilization for very complex reasons.
The final outcome of Russia was also caused by the Tolstoys.
In this epic work "War and Peace", there is a lot of Tolstoy-style mixed thinking.
