Sophisticated observers chuckled at his naivete, but the fall of communism in Eastern Europe has given Solzhenitsyn the last laugh as Vaclav Havel in Czechoslovakia, Lazlo Tokes in Romania, and Lech Walesa in Poland all confronted tanks and machine guns with words of truth, paving the way toward a new future. In October, the Soviet chief prosecutor dropped treason charges against the Russian author who has been in exile since 1971. Solzhenitsyn was the first author to alert the West to the horrible realities he experienced in Stalin's labor camps after World War Two. The Gulag Archipelago, his Nobel Prize winning work, has been released to the Russian public as well. Although his works have been popular in the Soviet Union, it was only recently that he was given permission to return. Now the writer's intentions may seriously influence the course of events in Russia and other parts of the former union republics. His new book, Rebuilding Russia, makes it clear that he is getting ready to get involved in Russian politics. "Upon my return to Russia," says Solzhenitsyn, "I will immediately become immersed in other concerns that I in common with everyone."

Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn - Biography One of the leading Russian writers of the 20th century, Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn, b. Rostov-on-Don, Dec. 11 (N.S.), 1918, received the Nobel Prize for literature in 1970 "for the ethical force with which he has pursued the indispensable traditions of Russian literature." Solzhenitsyn's novels are autobiographical, presenting a vivid account of a man maintaining his freedom against the vicious repressions of an authoritarian regime. Clearly a novelist in the 19th-century tradition, he is often considered Russia's greatest 20th-century novelist. Solzhenitsyn studied mathematics and physics at the University of Rostov-on-Don, graduating at the beginning of World War II. He served for 4 years in the Soviet army and attained the rank of captain in the artillery. His difficulties with the authorities began on Feb. 8, 1945, when he was arrested for having written critical remarks about Joseph Stalin in a letter to a friend that was intercepted by the censors. Sentenced without a trial to 8 years of hard labor, he remained until 1953 in a number of labor camps, one of which was a research institute (the setting for The First Circle), where he worked (1953) as a mathematician. In 1952 he contracted cancer of the skin, and was treated (1953) in a hospital in Tashkent (the setting for Cancer Ward). Pronounced cured, he completed his sentence a year later and, although still in exile, was able to teach mathematics and to begin writing.

Home Books Reviews Tutorials ... Subscribe here for our free email newsletter Alexander Solzhenitsyn a guide to his greatest works One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovitch (1962) is a short novel that made Solzhenitsyn famous overnight. It recounts a typical day's work, deprivation, and suffering of a prisoner in one of Stalin's labour camps. Publication was 'allowed' as part of Krushchev's post 1956 reforms. The facts of the story were deliberately understated to meet the censor's requirements. It catapulted Solzhenitsyn to fame, and yet within a short time his work was banned again. Beginners should start here. The Gulag Archipelago could eventually turn out to be Solzhenitsyn's masterpiece. It's a three-volume encyclopedia of the forced labour camps which underpinned the communist system - from Lenin onwards. It was written in secret under incredibly difficult conditions and smuggled out to the West. It's a history, a sociology, a complete political and social record of the labour camps. Rather unusually for Solzhenitsyn it is recounted via a series of marvellous metaphors which hold together a wonderful collection of stories, statistics, and anecdotes. There are heartbreaking tales of endurance, survival, escape, and recapture. It is truly one of the great documents of historical witness. In retrospect it probably helped to bring about the collapse of the totally corrupt communist regime in the USSR. But most importantly it helps to document a tragically bleak period of quite recent European history. A work which could significantly affect your life.

My congratulations and very best wishes to all of today's graduates. Harvard's motto is "VERITAS." Many of you have already found out, and others will find out in the course of their lives, that truth eludes us if we do not concentrate our attention totally on it's pursuit. But even while it eludes us, the illusion of knowing it still lingers and leads to many misunderstandings. Also, truth seldom is pleasant; it is almost invariably bitter. There is some bitterness in my today's speech too, but I want to stress that it comes not from an adversary, but from a friend. Three years ago in the United States I said certain things which at that time appeared unacceptable. Today, however, many people agree with what I then said.

Glad he decided to do this book as now western countires are provocating Russia as the enemy and that it wants to start a new cold war, even suggesting that Russians are genetically inclined to despotism citing the Soviet Union. I hope exstracts of his book are published on various websites Why not? It seems to me it could be translated and made available online. FB, if, as seems most likely, the Whites who control the big four EU publishing houses have exercised self-censorship because of their having stupidly internalized the racial concerns of the Chosenites, then the responsiblity for this debacle lies at their own door.

This site is best viewed with a 4.0 browser and requires javascript Author and Soviet dissident Alexander Solzhenitsyn was born into a Cossack family of intellectuals on December 11, 1918. He attended the University of Rostov-na-Don, graduating with honor in mathematics and physics, and took correspondence courses in literature from Moscow State University. He fought in World War II, attaining the rank of captain of artillery, but was arrested in February 1945, after a letter he had written to a friend that was critical of Stalin fell into the hands of the KGB. Branded an "enemy of the people," he was sentenced to eight years of imprisonment, followed by internal exile. He was taken first to the notorious KGB Lubyanka prison in Moscow, then to Marfino, a research institute where imprisoned intellectuals were forced to work for the state, and finally to a hard-labor camp. Discharged in 1953, he was exiled to the remote town of Berlik. While there he developed internal cancer and almost died. All of these experiences provided material for his subsequent books. In 1956, after Stalin had been dead for three years, Solzhenitsyn was rehabilitated and allowed to settle in Ryazan in central Russia, where he became a mathematics instructor and began to write. In 1961 he submitted his first manuscript, "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich," to the authorities in hopes of being allowed to publish it. The novel, based on his own experiences, detailed the daily life of a prisoner in the forced hard-labor camps under Stalin. Khrushchev, in the midst of his "de-Stalinization" campaign, allowed the book to be published in 1963. Its description of life in the camps was the first of its kind, and its straightforward language and content spoke strongly to ordinary citizens and intellectuals alike. It produced a sensation both inside and outside the Soviet Union.

CHAPTER ONE Alexander Solzhenitsyn A Century in his Life By D. M. THOMAS St. Martin's Press Read the Review ANCESTRAL VOICES I saw it fifty years ago Before the thunderbolt had riven it, Green leaves, ripe leaves, leaves thick as butter, Fat, greasy life.... W. B. YEATS, Purgatory HAPPY IS THE WRITER WHO REMEMBERS DRAWING IN THE DEVOTED love of a woman and, through her, the riches of his native traditions. For Pushkin, at the start of the nineteenth century, that woman was his nurse, Arina Rodionovna, whose simple peasant love consoled him for the coldness of his mother. The fairy tales and folk stories she told him in Russian broke through the genteel French of polite society. He paid tribute to her in a tender poem that imagines her sighing like a sentry on guard, at an upstairs window, her gnarled hands knitting more slowly now, as she gazes at the forgotten gate, the distant blackened road; he is late, and she fearfully imagines ... The lyrical fragment breaks off at that point. But their two imaginings have touched for a moment again in his adulthood and his adulteries. Solzhenitsyn's Arina was Irina, an aunt. She had married into his maternal grandfather's family, the Shcherbaks, and she conjured up almost a biblical story of a patriarch coming dressed in rags out of a foreign land....

Alexander Solzhenitsyn Posted by Incognito at 9:06 PM Labels: Keys to happiness Words of Wisdom and Inspiration 6 comments: Pat Jenkins said... this quote brings up a great topic incog. how much of our joy, success, peace do we ourselves have control over with our thoughts. many pastors , joel olsten being one, along with many psychatrists advocate a "mind over matter" approach. what say you? August 23, 2007 4:41 AM Incognito said... Absolutely Pat, I firmly believe we hold the key to our own happiness. I'll be writing more about that in future posts, but at the root of it all is how we view what happens in our lives. We can either deem it negative or positive and therein lies either happiness or pain. And if we look look to outer things (the material things in life) to bring us happiness then we are doomed to ride the rollercoaster of emotions that is life. The Buddhists believe that it is our attachment to (material) desires that is the root cause of all pain. So that when those desires are not fulfilled or taken away from us, we are devastated. Basically, if we look to God first then all things fall into place. And we definitely have control over that.
