The crisis of Russian Symbolism that occurred near the beginning of the present century and coincided with a neo-Christian revival, was characterized by an intense "quest of the soul" on the part of some Symbolist writers, such as Merezkovskij, Gippius, Culkov, Belyj, and others. For the writers interested in the history of religion and dogma Vladimir Solov'ev's teaching of esoteric Christian love, on one hand, and, on the other, Adolf von Harnack's studies of Gnostic influences on early Christianity helped to re-introduce, in a more obvious form, some remarkable themes into Russian literature, androgyny being one of them. The notions of religious love, androgyny as an original state of being as well as of the male-female opposition viewed as a cosmic principle surfaced in creative and critical literature alike. The present study discusses this aspect of Russian literary history of the period between 1900 and early 1920's when a consistent use was made by various, but mostly Symbolist, writers, of the male- female duality. Having originated in antiquity, this notion of the dichotomy of the feminine and the masculine survived in the esoteric tradition and informed European, as well as Russian, literature of the beginning of the century, by a distinct metaphysical rhetoric. The origins, literary applivations and the eventual demise of a fascinating Russian poetico-philosophical movement that gave character to the last idealistic, spiritualistic Romantic period in Russian literature are given a detailed analysis in the text of the dissertation.
