Abstract

The article outlines the destiny of the Übermensch and Dionysus in Russia among the symbolist writers D. Merezkovski, V. Ivanov, and A. Biely, all members of the so-called «God-seekers» (bogoiskateli). The God-seekers are a group of philosophers and symbolist writers, heterogeneous in their proposals, pursuing the same goal: to revitalize Christian religion. In Nietzsche they see the prophet of the new religion sought. This eminently religious perception of Nietzsche was conditioned by the philosophy of Vladimir Soloviev.
