Publisher Z.I. Grzhebin in Letters to Scientist, Socialist, Writer V.S. Voitinsky

The Paris period of the life and activity of the expatriate book publisher Z.I. Grzhebin (1925-1927) is extremely insufficiently studied. A collection of nine letters to V.S. Voitinsky and his wife, discovered at the International Institute of Social History (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), makes it possible to clarify a number of episodes that remained outside the framework of the domestic historiography of the issue. Biographical information on the social, political and scientific activities of V.S. Voitinsky in Russia and abroad is given. The text of some Z.I. Grzhebin’s letters, previously unknown to specialists, as well as the agreement on the credit debt of his Berlin publishing house, which actually put an end to the fate of his company, is introduced into scientific circulation.
