What the Russian symbolists heard in the "music of revolution"

philosophical implications

Alexander L. Dobrokhotov

pp. 287-304

The article is dedicated to the philosophical reaction by several Russian symbolists to the revolution of 1917. It demonstrates the "re-grouping" of Silver Age symbolism, which laid bare the underlying differences in its value foundations. The article considers this refracted unity in the ideational world of symbolism, in the journalistic writings of Vjacheslav Ivanov, Alexander Blok, Andrej Bely, and Maximilian Voloshin.
