The article is focused on the reflections of Masaryk's works in the field of philosophy and history of Russian philosophy made by Russian philosophers, who due to Russian Aid Action found their home in interwar Czechoslovakia. They were I. I. Lapshin, N. O. Lossky and B. V. Jakovenko, who wrote the most significant studies in this field. Lapshin, the first among Russian philosophers who generally evaluated Masaryk's philosophical work, dedicated a special article to Masaryk's conception of esthetics. Lossky regarded ethics the heart of Masaryk's philosophy and mentioned insufficient philosophical rationalization of his ethical principles. Most of contributions to Masaryk's work were written by B. Jakovenko. While his general studies concerning Masaryk's philosophy bear likely descriptive character, Jakovenko's surveys about Masaryk's conception of history of Russian philosophy show more analytical and critical attitude. Jakovenko mentions some weak points of Masaryk's conception in the synthesis The Spirit of Russia, such as omission of important philosophers and problematic interpretation of certain persons belonging to Slavophil and Westernist tradition. All observed surveys evaluate Masaryk's work positively and at the same time present remarkable philosophical critique opening Masaryk's work to wider scholarly discussion.
