Dmitry Romanov will explain how Blok's biography intertwines with his texts and why it is difficult to understand the true scale of his ideas without diaries and letters. PhD in Philosophy Dmitry Romanov will offer a perspective on Blok's works through the concepts of Logos, the myth of Russia, chivalric service, and the "theurgy" of art. The lecturer will discuss the circle of symbolists and the sociocultural environment of the Silver Age, explain how Blok's reputation developed among his contemporaries, and why his biography is often described as a myth. Participants will learn how the philosophical positions of different literary groups differed and how these debates were reflected in artistic works. The lecture will be of interest to those who love Russian literature and want to go beyond the school curriculum, to students of humanities, and to teachers.
