Abstract: The article reveals the potential of Russian orthodox philosophy treatment of the concept of «virtue». Basing the research on the works of well-known philosophers and theologians, the author shows that the given concept could not be reduced to its psychological projections. In polemics with the western theorists an integral concept is built revealing the sense of the Christian approach to a problem of freedom of the person through a prism of interpretation of concept of «virtue».
