안드레이 타르코프스키의 영화에 내재된 러시아 상징주의 예술철학

초록

This study originates from the conviction that the prevailing scholarly position- that the films of Andrei Tarkovsky should not be interpreted through the lens of Symbolism- requires a fundamental reassessment. Such a misconception largely derives from the comparatively limited recognition of Russian Symbolism within domestic academic circles, especially when contrasted with other national literary theories. In response, this paper offers an art-historical overview of Russian Symbolism and presents the perspectives of the key thinkers and artists who defined the movement. Although Tarkovsky’s own writings reveal a deep engagement with figures who shaped Russian artistic and intellectual life at the turn of the twentieth century - such as Andrei Bely, Vyacheslav Ivanov, Vladimir Solovyov, Pavel Florensky, and Nikolai Berdyaev - in the Korean academic community who study Tarkovsky Films has thus far paid insufficient attention to these connections. On this basis, the present study traces Tarkovsky’s worldview -his cosmic consciousness reflecting upon human existence and his attempt to express metaphysical mystery through life and art- and reexamines his oeuvre through the philosophical prism of Russian Symbolism.
