About This Item
Moscow: Gosudarstvennoe izdatel'stvo, 1929. 40 pp.: ill. 30,5x23,5 cm. In original illustrated wrappers. Stamps of provincial archive on both issues (front cover, p. 1, 17, 19, 40), #17: ink note of front cover and p. 16, spine chipped. Otherwise very good.
Cover design and layouts were created by constructivist artist Varvara Stepanova (1894-1958). Edited by N. Chudnovskii.
Two issues of the only All-Union organ of proletarian studentship published for universities and fabfaks. It was initiated as 'Krasnaia molodezh'' (1924-1925), published as 'Krasnoe studenchestvo' (1925-1935), 'Sovietskoe studenchestvo' (1936-1941, 1946-1947). In the late 1940s, the entire editorial board, headed by B. Chetverikov, was executed, due to "the struggle against sabotage and decay". The periodical continued publication as an almanac until 1967. It was renamed into 'Studencheskii meridian' and has been coming out under this title up to the day. Meanwhile, in the 1970s, it stopped promoting ideological texts and turned to neutral and relevant topics.
These early issues published photographs of Soviet students involved in study, science, sport, working process or collective activities in dormitories in the late 1920s. Among them are pictures by professional photographers B. Ignatovich, F. Kislov, V. Shevchenko, M. Solodov, N. Nikolin, etc. as well as amateur rabfak photo groups.
No copies of these issues are found in Worldcat.
