Laura’s Reviews > Selected Essays: Viacheslav Ivanov > Status Update

I’ve bashed Scriabin for his insanity for many years (and will continue to do so) but reading some Ivanov and the like does unfortunately explain (only slightly!) how one got to be like that. Even just skimming these essays is a headache so if one were to sit down and properly engage with them at the time they were written, it could warp the mind for sure.
