In the second half of the nineteenth century, philosophical education at the university was represented by a chair at the Faculty of History and Philology. A. I. Vvedensky, L. P. Karsavin, I. I. Lapshin worked at it in different years until 1917. The article emphasizes the scientific and pedagogical work of A. I.
