The Frenzied Poets: Andrey Biely and the Russian Symbolists delves into the complexities of the Symbolist movement in Russia, a pivotal yet often overlooked aspect of the nation's cultural history. This study primarily focuses on Andrey Biely, one of the leading figures of the Russian Symbolists, offering a deep exploration of his life, works, and the Symbolist ideology. Symbolism in Russia is shown not as a singular movement but as a collection of diverse, intersecting currents, making Biely's contributions all the more important in understanding the nuances of the era. The work also reflects on how Biely's personal experiences shaped his creative output and influenced the broader Symbolist movement, which sought to unveil the absolute truth through symbols and artistic intuition. This study examines Biely's role within the larger Symbolist community, highlighting his interactions with other key figures and providing insight into the inner workings of the movement. Through the study of Biely's poetry and life, the book attempts to illuminate the Symbolist mentality and its emphasis on rhythm, intuition, and rebellion against traditional forms. The translated verses aim to capture the essence and rhythm of Biely's original Russian poetry, focusing on the inner flow of the verse rather than conventional rhyme. The book's nonchronological structure allows for a multifaceted view of Biely, offering a more comprehensive portrait of his literary contributions and his impact on Russian culture during this turbulent period. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1952.
