About this product
Art. : 258-21797
Alexander Solzhenitsyn is a Russian writer, playwright, essayist, poet, public and political figure who lived and worked in the USSR, Switzerland, the USA and Russia.

There are several errors in the text of the letter from the Stargift collection: apparently, Solzhenitsyn printed the letter in a hurry so that the novel would not have time to go to print. This exhibit, addressed to Alexander Tvardovsky, editor-in-chief of the Novy Mir magazine, represents a museum-level collectible value.

The text of the letter:
" To the editorial office of Novy Mir
Comrade Tvardovsky A.T.
From A Member of the Writers' Union
USSR Solzhenitsyn A.S.

Dear Alexander Trifonovich,
I ask you to return the manuscript of my novel "The Gulag Archipelago" in connection with the circumstances that you know.
I hope that the editorial board of the New World magazine will leave my other works for publication.

Member of the Union of Writers of the USSR
A.I. Solzhenitsyn
(Autograph) March 24, 1969"

Under the circumstances, Solzhenitsyn means the impending expulsion from the Writers' Union and pressure from the Central Committee of the CPSU. With the filing of Sholokhov, this idea was hatched for 2 years, the exception occurred on November 4, 1969. The authorities were waiting for the announcement of the Nobel laureates, guessing that Solzhenitsyn was one of the nominees. In 1969, Solzhenitsyn was hastily excluded, which in fact brought the Nobel Prize in Literature the following year much closer. After being expelled from the Writers' Union, Solzhenitsyn began openly, without hesitation, to criticize the current government.

In January 1974, on the air of Radio Liberty, the reading of the work "Gulag Archipelago" began for half an hour a day. Solzhenitsyn was provided with information for the GULAG Archipelago by 227 people, as indicated in the first editions. The 2007 edition revealed for the first time the list of "witnesses of the Archipelago", whose stories, letters, memoirs and corrections were used in the creation of this book," including 257 names. Some fragments of the text were written by the author's acquaintances (in particular, George Tenno and Vyacheslav Ivanov). According to Ivanov, Solzhenitsyn tried to involve Varlam Shalamov and Yuli Daniel in the work on the GULAG Archipelago, but they failed to reach an agreement.

Royalties from the sale of the book were transferred to the Solzhenitsyn Foundation, from where they were subsequently transferred secretly to the USSR to help political prisoners and their families. In the USSR, The Archipelago was fully published only in 1990.

Stargift An autographed photo of the scientist Albert Einstein An autographed photo of the scientist Albert Einstein Albert Einstein (German: Albert Einstein) is a theoretical physicist, one of the founders of modern theoretical physics, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921, a public figure and humanist. He lived in Germany (1879-1893, 1914-1933), Switzerland (1893-1914) and the USA (1933-1955). Honorary Doctor of about 20 leading universities of the world, member of many Academies of Sciences, including a foreign honorary member of the USSR Academy of Sciences (1926). Einstein is the author of more than 300 scientific papers on physics, as well as about 150 books and articles in the field of history and philosophy of science, journalism, etc. He developed several significant physical theories, as well as predicted gravitational waves and "quantum teleportation", predicted and measured the gyromagnetic Einstein—de Haase effect. Since 1933 he has been working on problems of cosmology and unified field theory. He actively opposed war, the use of nuclear weapons, humanism, respect for human rights, and mutual understanding between peoples. Einstein plays a crucial role in popularizing and introducing new physical concepts and theories into scientific circulation. First of all, this refers to the revision of the understanding of the physical essence of space and time and to the construction of a new theory of gravity instead of the Newtonian one. Einstein also, together with Planck, laid the foundations of quantum theory. These concepts, repeatedly confirmed by experiments, form the foundation of modern physics.
