Synopsis "El triunfo del artista (in Spanish)"

La Revolución rusa de 1917 es sin duda uno de los episodios más cruciales del siglo xx y dio origen al primer estado totalitario de la historia. Muchos fueron los artistas y escritores que saludaron la revolución y muchos también los que sufrieron la represión del totalitarismo que la siguió. En El triunfo del artista, Tzvetan Todorov se fija en una serie de creadores y analiza su posición frente a la revolución en dos momentos: en primer lugar la actitud que adoptan en relación con la idea misma de revolución antes de que se convierta en realidad. Y en segundo lugar la relación que se establece, una vez producida, entre el arte y el poder, entre los creadores y los dirigentes políticos.

Escritores como Pasternak, Bábel, Bulgákov, Mayakovski, Tsvietáieva o Mandelstam; cineastas como Eisenstein; músicos como Shostakóvich; y pintores como Malévich son analizados por Todorov desde el conocimiento profundo de su obra y la compasión por la tragedia de su vida. Para proclamar finalmente el poder del arte sobre aquellos que quieren su muerte.

Tzvetan Todorov (Sofia, 1939 – Paris, 2017) was a Bulgarian-born French linguist, philosopher, historian of ideas, and literary theorist. Professor at the CNRS in Paris and visiting scholar at Yale, Harvard, and Columbia, he began his work in literary theory with Theory of Literature of the Russian Formalists (1965) and Literature and Signification (1967), pioneering texts in semiotics and narratology. From the 80s, he shifted towards historical and ethical essays, reflecting on the Enlightenment and totalitarianisms.

Among his most influential titles are The Conquest of America: The Question of the Other (1982), Facing the Limit (1991; Facing the Extreme), and The Abuses of Memory (1995). His exploration of evil and memory in the 20th century is summarized in Memory of Evil, Temptation of Good (2000) and The Totalitarian Experience (2010). These works, of an essayistic and historiographic genre, did not receive specific literary awards, but Todorov was honored with the Prince of Asturias Award for Social Sciences in 2008 and received distinctions such as the Medal of the Order of Arts and Letters in France.
