Three Dialogues Between Hylas and Philonous Tri razgovora mezhdu Gilasom i Filonusom. / Translated and with an introductory article by I. S. Narsky. Moscow: State Socio-Economic Publishing House Sotsekgiz 1937. 127 VIII pp. Publisher’s binding standard format. This 1937 edition of George Berkeley’s 1685–1753 seminal philosophical work is a fascinating artifact of Soviet intellectual history. Published by Sotsekgiz at the height of the pre-war period it presents Berkeley's most accessible defense of subjective idealism immaterialism. The "Three Dialogues" originally published in 1713 feature the characters Hylas representing the materialist view and Philonous the "lover of mind" representing Berkeley himself debating the existence of matter independent of perception. Berkeley’s famous maxim esse est percipi to be is to be perceived is the central pillar of these dialogues. In the Soviet context of 1937 Berkeley was often presented through the lens of Marxist-Leninist critique—specifically Lenin's Materialism and Empirio-criticism—as the quintessential philosophical adversary. Consequently this edition includes a substantial introductory article by I. S. Narsky framing Berkeley's philosophy within the historical-materialist discourse of the time. This makes the book not just a philosophical classic but a document of how Western Enlightenment thought was curated and critiqued in the Stalinist era. The translation seeks to maintain the clarity and rhetorical vigor of Berkeley’s original prose which was designed to combat skepticism and atheism. Despite the ideological framing of the preface the text remains a faithful representation of Berkeley's attempt to prove that the "sensible world" is a series of ideas in the mind of God. For historians of philosophy collectors of Soviet academic editions and scholars of 18th-century empiricism this 1937 volume is a significant find. It represents a rare moment where a "reactionary" philosopher’s work was given a standalone high-quality publication to serve as a primary source for students of dialectical materialism.
