This chapter covers the acrimonous disputes arising during Johann Schad's tenure in Kharkov as well as the dissertations on Kant written under his supervision. In the capital of St. Petersburg, Aleksandr Kunicyn, who taught natural law, published a text condemning serfdom on Kantian grounds, setting off an official firestorm against Kantianism. However, even those who had opposed Kantianism on philosophical grounds did not escape the reactionary religious movement.
