In the early twentieth century, Bely embarked on his life as an artist with texts he called symphoniesworks experimenting with genre and sound, written in a style that shifts among prosaic, poetic, and musical. This book presents Belys four <em>Symphonies</em>Dramatic Symphony, Northern Symphony, The Return, and Goblet of Blizzardsfantastically strange stories that capture the banality of life, the intimacy of love, and the enchantment of art.</p><p>The <em>Symphonies</em> are quintessential works of modernist innovation in which Bely developed an evocative mythology and distinctive aesthetics. Influenced by Russian Symbolism, Bely believed that the role of modern artists was to imbue seemingly small details with cosmic significance. The <em>Symphonies</em> depict the drabness of daily life with distinct irony and satireand then soar out of turn-of-the-century Moscow into the realm of the infinite and eternal. They conjure worlds that resemble our own but reveal elements of artifice and magic, hinting at mystical truths and the complete transfiguration of life.
