Summary/Abstract: In this paper article we will present the rebellion of Nikolai Berdyaev against ”ut- most objectivization of human essence” under ”extreme ideals of communism and anarchism”. This rebellion, in the philosophy and theosophy of Nikolai Berdyaev will be enveloped with the analysis of his version of christian personalism rooted in his understanding of personality, spirit, freedom, love and creativity, and their intercon- nectivity in the works Freedom and the Spirit. Apology of Christianity (1928), and Human slavery and Freedom.Essay on personalistic philosophy (1939). With fenomenological and hermeneutic method we will place a special focus on a seamingly paradoxal position of the autor himself between heresy and apology of the Orthodox Church. Philosophy of Nikolai Berdyayev will be placed between hellenism, christian personalism and western philosophy. This article seeks the answer on the following: What is hereti- cal in the teachings of Berdyayev apart his theachings of Ungrund? Can heresy of Berdyayev be found apart the mentioned teaching? And, finaly through relations of personality and history we will see the constant modernity of Berdyayev’s thought.
