Anthroposophic Discourse in the Symbolists and Futurists Poetics (A. Belys novel Petersburg and V. Khlebnikovs long story Ka)
The aim of this paper is to try and reveal the creative aspects of anthroposophic searchings in symbolism and futurism (using Andrew Bely and Velimir Khlebnikovs works as an example). Comparative analysis of A. Belys novel Petersburg and V. Khlebnikovs story Ka shows that Khlebnikov, as a representative of budetlyanskian futurism, developed the anthroposophic wisdoms in greater depth than the founder of symbolism Bely. The main objects of investigation are excerpts from prosaic texts by Bely and Khlebnikov, which refl ect the ideas and images from Rudolph Steiner.
