1922réf. 133544Bln., Argonavty, 1922. 160, [3] S., Hln., kl.8°. Erstausgabe der berühmten im Berliner Exilverlag "Argonavty" (=Argonauten) erschienenen Anthologie zur russischen Avantgarde und Moderne mit literaturkritischen Beiträgen über Anna A. Achmatova, Konstantin D. Bal'mont, Jurgis K. Baltrusajtis, Aleksandr A. Blok, Valerij Ja. Brjusov, Andrej Belyj, Maksimilian A. Volosin, Sergej A. Esenin, Vjaceslav I. Ivanov, Osip E. Mandel'stam, Vladimir V. Majakovskij, Boris L. Pasternak, Fedor K. Sologub, Marina I. Cvetaeva, alle jeweils ergänzt mit Gedichten der Autoren. Mit Ausnahme der Beiträge über Bal'mont, Brjusov, Blok und Majakovskij, die davor schon in der sowjetischen Zeitschrift "Slovo" (=Wort) erschienen waren, handelt es sich bei den Texten von Ehrenburg um Erstveröffentlichungen. Von den porträtierten Autoren lebten die meisten (noch) in der Sowjetunion. Die Anthologie, die damals für grosses Aufsehen sorgte, erschien ein Jahr später auch in der Sowjetunion, allerdings erheblich gekürzt und unter einem anderen Titel. Später ist sie in München (1972) und inzwischen, mit ausführlichem wissenschaftlichen Kommentar, auch in Russland (St. Petersburg, 2002) erschienen. Privater Halbleineneinband mit marmoriertem Überzugpapier und einem merfarbigen Kleisterpapier für den vorderen Vorsatz. Ausserst selten. Hardcover Einband berieben, Kanten und Ecken stark bestossen.

1973réf. C1624Oblong photograph 6 3/4" x 11 1/4" Signed by 14 of the 18 contestants Boris Spassky Michal Tal Anatoly Karpov Alexander Beliavsky Efim Geller Paul Keres Victor Korchnoi Nukhim N Rashkovsky Gennadi Kuzmin Vladimir Savon Evgeni Ellinovich Sveshnikov Mark Taimanov Vladimir Borisovich Tukmakov Orest Averkin and one non contestant Viktor Davidovich Kupreichik on the verso. The photograph shows the stage were the contest took place with lined up game tables and the participants during the competition. In the foreground a part of the auditorium with seated spectators. In the aftermath of Robert James Fischer's victory over Boris Spassky in the 1972 World Championship the Soviet Union had been humiliated and humbled by an American and the 35 year rule of the Soviet chess machine over the international chess world had finally been put to an end. The consequences of this result were felt in Soviet chess for months after. Mark Taimanov Tigran Petrosian and Spassky were all reprimanded for their failure to stop Fischer. Consequences continued into the 41st USSR Championship held in the Soviet capital of Moscow from October 2-26 1973. The tournament was organized to be the strongest in a decade. In addition to the four qualifying players who had each won a semi-final Orest Averkin Karen Grigorian Nukhim Rashkovsky and Evgeni Sveshnikov the very strongest grandmasters of the Soviet Union received forced invitations to participate. The list was a collection of former world champions multiple Soviet title winners and the very strongest of the Soviet school including: Spassky Petrosian Mikhail Tal Vasily Smyslov Anatoli Karpov Viktor Korchnoi Efim Geller Paul Keres Lev Polugaevsky Taimanov Leonid Stein Vladimir Tukmakov Vladimir Savon and Gennadi Kuzmin. Victor Davidovich Baturinsky the vice-president of the USSR chess federation and a Colonel of Justice explained clearly to all the participants that their attendance was not only obligatory but their very future as Soviet chess players and the favors imparted therein depended on their performance in the championship. Stein died before the championship took place and he was replaced by junior world champion Alexander Beliavsky. In addition to the composed line up it was made known that draws of thirty moves or less were 'discouraged' by the organizers. Although short draws did occur the schedule of play and the intense combat among the contestants was arduous. It was Spassky after failing in Reykjavik who emerged victorious by a full point. This edition did have the desired effect of revealing future world title candidates as Karpov and Korchnoi tied for second along with two other contestants and would face each other the following year for what ultimately was the de facto world championship. Condition: Slightly tinted trimmed at the bottom irregularly else a very good copy of an interesting chess historical document. USSR Chess Federation

Un leggerissimo alone al margine basso bianco delle ultime 7 carte del primo volume, ininfluente e nel complesso esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione ad ampi margini ed ancora in barbe. Alla prima carta bianca del primo volume antica nota di possesso privata datata 1800 "Di me Niccolé Co: Batti:ala del Co: Niccolè" Prima assai rara edizione italiana, ancor più rara a trovarsi completa di tutti i volumi ed in queste ottime condizioni di conservazione, di una delle più celebri storia della Russia scritte nel settecento. La prima edizione accoluta uscì in Francia nel 1782. Pierre-Charles Levesque (1736-1812) compilò l'opera in numerosi anni basandosi su un imponente apparato documentale rintracciato negli archivi pietroburghesi dove risedette per più di 7 anni chiamato da Caterina II su segnalazione diretta di Diderot per tenere una cattedra Universitaria prima e nella Scuola Cadetti poi. L'opera ebbe subito grande successo ed ebbe grande importanza per far conoscere alle corti dell'Europa occidentale la realtà russa ed il grande potenziale del paese. Ancora oggi questa storia è considerata di grande valore ed attendibilità tanto da venir ancora ristampata. Proprio sulla scorta degli insegnamenti di Diderot e degli enciclopedisti Levesque non si accontenta di citare una fonte ma ne analizza l'attendibilità rintracciando ogni volta la fonte primaria. Opera rarissima.

réf. P5852Moscow: Ministerstvo elektrostantsii SSSR 1958. Oblong folio 24.5 × 36 cm. Original silver embossed blue cloth with blue printed dust wrapper in protective card case; 197 pp. Illustrated profusely from photographs in black and white with captions. Small closed tears to front and back dust wrapper; card case rubbed and lightly soiled; lacking titl leaf; else a very well preserved copy. This impressively illustrated album exhibited at the Soviet Pavilion during the Brussels World's fair in 1958 is filled with maps graphs drawings and photographs that tell the story of the electrical production of the Soviet Union. The album opens with a famous quotation from Lenin: "Communism is Soviet power plus the electrification of the whole country." The following pages contain graphs indicating rapid growth of electrical production maps that show the reach of electrical power and photographs of the enormous machines that service major urban centers like Moscow as well as entire regions like the Don Basin DONBAS. Typical for the Thaw and in contrast to similar albums form the heydays of the 'five year plans' all mentions of Stalin are conspicuously absent and the album is focused on images over text clearly trying to appeal to an international audience in keeping with new international policies of Nikita Khrushchev 1894-1971. Khrushchev came to power after the death of Stalin in 1953 and in his 1956 "secret speech" denounced Stalin's cult of personality and isolationist policies setting in motion the period known as the Thaw 1956-1968. Changing the international image of the Soviet Union was a major focus for Khrushchev and he saw international participation in cultural events as key. The Soviet presence at the Brussels World's fair in 1958 was a great success with the Soviet pavilion winning a grand prix and exhibiting among other technological innovations a facsimile of Sputnik a satellite that had gone into space in the previous year. Another grand prix went to the Volga Hydroelectric Station Volga GES images of which are richly represented in this album. unknown

1958réf. 055782Cairo: The USSR Embassy Press Office in the United Arab Republic UAR 1958. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Contemporary full green cloth in Egyptian style contemporary white endpapers gilt lettering of title on front board and gilt decorations on spine. Original pictorial cover saved inside. Roy. 8vo. 24 x 17 cm. In Arabic. 88 p. 12 b/w ills. including drawings and reproduced photographic plates. Extremely rare unrecorded first issue of this Soviet propaganda organ published in Cairo the centre of the UAR by the USSR Propaganda Press Office with a striking cover design depicting the Sputniks in space celebrating the third anniversary of the Kosmicheskaya programma SSSR. The content begins with a comparison between the Soviet and American satellites. A full-paged photograph shows the Muscovites reading newspapers about the launch of the third Soviet satellite into space. In the periodical many details such as the construction processes and technical specifications of the satellites are explained as well as a striking history of the Soviet Space Program. Relations between Russia and Egypt have a long history dating back to before the 16th century. In the 1950s Gamal Abdel Nasser's independent and anti-imperialist policy earned him enthusiastic support from the Communist government of the USSR. In 1955 Egypt made a major arm deal with the Soviet Union and from then teams of Egyptian officers were trained in Eastern Bloc countries. Czechoslovak instructors also came in 1956 to train Egyptian personnel in the use of Soviet weapons. When France attacked Egypt during the Suez Crisis the USSR threatened to use destructive weapons i.e. nuclear weapons for the defence of Egypt. The degree of the Soviet approval of the Egyptian leader's policies culminated rather controversially in the award of the highest Soviet decoration the star of the Hero of the Soviet Union with the Order of Lenin to Nasser during Nikita Khrushchev's visit to the country in 1964. Kosmicheskaya programma SSSR i.e. The Soviet Space Program was the national space program of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics USSR active from 1955 until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. After WWII the Soviet and US space programs both utilized German technology in their early efforts. Eventually the program was managed under Sergei Korolev who led the program based on unique ideas derived by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky sometimes known as the father of theoretical astronautics. Contrary to its American European and Chinese competitors who had their programs run under a single coordinating agency the Soviet space program was divided and split among several internally competing design bureaus led by Korolev Kerimov Keldysh Yangel Glushko Chelomey Makeyev Chertok and Reshetnev. The Soviet space program served as an important marker of Soviet claims to its global superpower status. Wikipedia. As of May 2024 not in OCLC and KVK.
