- 요약This dissertation comprises an in-depth study of Alexander Scriabin's Mysterium project through the lens of utopian theory. Conceived in 1902 but left unfinished at the time of the composer's death in 1915, the Mysterium was a musical utopia: a sonic expression of a hopedfor, hypothetical, idealized society described in relative detail and existing within a specific place and time. This ostensibly world-transforming project affirms the role of utopian thinking in finde-siecle Russian culture, both within the Silver Age and the years immediately following the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. Invoking the theories of Ernst Bloch, this dissertation considers the Mysterium from a specifically socialist utopian perspective. Chapter 1 pertains to the Mysterium's philosophical and aesthetic content as it appears in writings by the composer and his colleagues. Though all-encompassing in its scope, the project ultimately coalesces around six "constellatory" themes, all anticipating a Russian Mystic Symbolist future: ecstasy, oblivion, ultimatum, transformation, unity within multiplicity, and theurgy. Chapter 2 discusses the project's definable musical form, best reflected through Scriabin's unfinished sketches for the Mysterium's practical precursor, the Preliminary Action (conceived 1913). The sketches' octatonic passages and vertical constructions suggest utopian (and theurgic) aspirations; the Action also manifests a deeper utopian layer, that which privileges process, improvisation, and perpetual incompletion as ideal goal-content.Chapter 3 considers the composer's nuanced reception in post-Revolutionary culture between 1917 and 1927. It first explores how the Commissar for Enlightenment, Anatoly Lunacharsky, reinterpreted Scriabin's utopian vision along explicitly socialist lines. It then discusses the Bolshoi Theater's use of Scriabin's music during celebrations or the Revolution's first-year anniversary. Finally, in a brief exploration of Soviet press, this chapter considers the shift in sentiment against Scriabin's mystical utopianism as War Communism gave way to Lenin's New Economic Policy and Stalinism, to the point where the composer was ultimately excluded from Soviet repertoire during the socialist realist 1930s.
