The Poetic Imagination of Vyacheslav Ivanov - A Russian Symbolist's Perception of Dante - Pamela Davidson - Paperback Bog - Cambridge University Press

Description

Pamela Davidson explores Ivanov's poetic method, relating his art to his central beliefs and considering the ways in which he attempted to embody these ideas in his own life. She focuses on Ivanov's interpretation of Dante and in so doing, opens up fresh perspectives on the wider question of Russia's relation to the Western cultural tradition and Catholicism.
