On the early years of Taurida University n Simferopol (1917−1921)
Keywords:
Russian scientific emigration, Civil War in Russia, Russian Voluntary armyAbstract
In the history of Taurida University (Simferopol, Republic of Crimea), a distinct "early" period of its activity stands out. This period is associated with the names of famous St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Kiev professors and teachers of higher education who had fled to Crimea at the beginning of Russia’s Civil War. Along with representatives of the local intelligentsia, these scientists participated in the activities of a number of important scientific and cultural institutions in Crimea. With the change of regime, many of them had to be evacuated from the peninsula, along with the remaining members of the Russian Volunteer Army. This significant period is covered extremely poorly and inconsistently in the literature currently available. In writing this article, materials were used from the following sources: the Archives of the Alexander Solzhenitsyn House of Russia Abroad, Archives of the Russian Academy of Sciences, as well as materials from the family archives of the Dmitrievs, Metalnikovs, and Olferevs, which have not previously been published.
