metadata.value: The author conducts a research on perception of Leonid Andreyev’s works in Russian symbolic
  literary, philosophical criticism and religious philosophy of the late 19th century. The
  subject of the analysis is anthropological aspects of prose and dramaturgy of the writer
  that fueled heated discussions between ideologists of the Russian symbolism. Philosophical
  discourse about the man became the basis of interpretation of Leonid Andreyev’s works in
  the articles and philosophical essays of theoreticians of the Russian symbolism. Symbolists
  introduced anthropological concepts and terms of the Russian religious philosophy such as
  “God and man”, “essence of human”, “human body”, “Godmanhood”, “outer self ”, and “inner
  self ”. The article shows that interpretations by the contemporaries of Andreyev’s works
  were unfolding in context of important concepts of Russian symbolism: neo-Christianity of
  Dmitry Merezhkovsky and Dmitry Filosofov, Dionysian ideas of Vyacheslav Ivanov, apocalyptic
  themes of Andrey Bely, philosophy of art of Maximilian Voloshin, Innokenty Annensky
  and Alexander Blok. The symbolists considered that symbols of man introduced by Andreyev
  were mysterious and incomprehensible. Concepts of “death of the God” and “death
  of human” are analyzed. In symbolists’ literary criticism there evolved an idea of crisis of
  religious consciousness as a threat to humanistic values. The symbolists regarded the image
  of man in Andreyev’s creative work as destructive. Works of the writer were understood as
  examples of extreme and transgressivity finished to the point of absurdity. A conclusion is
  made that experience of the writer was important for development of philosophical thought
  and art creativity of the Russian symbolists. Specifics of the symbolists’ polemic was in their
  anthropological perspective of Andreyev’s works and outlining further ways of interpretation
  of his writing heritage in context of philosophical and religious anthropology of the
  20th century.
