Detailed Picture

The authors of this contribution analyze the circumstances and the history of a popular play that was staged in the Soviet Union in 1927-1928. Titled Jumah Masjid, this play was devoted to the anti-colonial movement in India. A manuscript of the play, not indicating its title and the name of its author, was found in the St. Petersburg Branch of the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences among the papers related to A.M. and L.A. Meerwarth, members of the First Russian Expedition to Ceylon and India (1914-1918). Later on, two copies of this play under the title The Jumah Masjid were found in the Russian Archive of Literature and Art and in the Museum of the Tovstonogov Grand Drama Theatre. The authors of this article use archival and published sources to analyze the reasons for writing and staging the play. They consider the image of India as portrayed by a Soviet playwright in conjunction with Indologists that served as consultants, and as seen by theater critics and by the audience (according to what the press reflected). Arguably, the celebration of the 10th anniversary of the October Revolution in Russia in 1927 and the VI Congress of the Communist International (Comintern) in 1928 encouraged writing and staging the play. The detailed picture of the anti-colonial struggle in India that the play offered suggests that professional Indologists were consulted. At the same time the play is critical of the non-violent opposition encouraged by Mahatma Gandhi as well as the Indian National Congress and its political wing known as the Swaraj Party. The research demonstrates that the author of the play was G.S. Venetsianov, and his Indologist consultants were Alexander and Liudmila Meerwarth.

The article is devoted to the history and present of the Institute of Organic Chemistry of NAS of Ukraine. By Boris Paton's definition, the Institute of Organic Chemistry belongs to the memorial institutions of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. On May 23, 1939, the Presidium of the USSR Academy of Sciences, according to resolution of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR (May 8, 1939) decided to set up the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Technology of the USSR Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences. There were four scientific departments in the Institute, headed by academicians of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR: General Organic Synthesis - V.P. Jaworski, fuel - M.I. Kuznetsov, macromolecular compounds - I.K. Matsurevich, fibrous substances and dyes - V.G. Shaposhnikov at the time of its foundation. V. P. Jaworski, the academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR, was the first Director of the Institute. Since the institute's existence, such outstanding scientists have worked in the institution as: Andrei Kiprianov (founder of the color theory of organic dyes, phenomenon of interaction of chromophores "Phenomenon AI Kiprianov", VM Zubarovsky, OI Tolmachov, Yu.L. Slominsky, OO Ishchenko, KD Sych, IK Ushenko, FA (development of preparative chemistry of thiazole, benzothiazole, benzimidazole and a number of heterocycles), E.O. Shilov (formation of p-complexes of molecules of unsaturated compounds with electrophilic reagents, substantiation of mechanisms of biochemical processes), OA Yasnikov (theory of radical transformations in reactions modeling nicotinamide coenzymes, open catalytic properties of cytochrome production technology for phospho-rylated starch), OV Kirsanov (reaction of amino compounds with phosphorus pentachloride and reaction of oxidative imination of compounds of trivalent phosphorus with dichloramines), A.F. Plate, IL Knunanciec, M.I. Kabachnik, L.M. Markovsky (Chemistry of Sulfur Organic Com-pounds) and VP Kuchar (Works on Chemistry of Phosphorus Organic Compounds), Yu. Gololobov (Chemistry of Organo-Organic Compounds), A.D. Sinitsa (Methods of Synthesis and Investigation of the Properties of Imino-Phosphonates), OI Kolodyazhny (Chemistry of Phosphorus Illides), L.M. Yagupolsky (Yagupolsky principle, Buchwald – Hartwig – Yagupolsky reaction), M.O. Lozynsky, S.V. Komisarenko (chemistry of physiologically active heterocyclic compounds), V.I. Kalchenko (molecular design, synthesis and study of supramolecular interactions of macrocyclic compounds - crowneters, calixarenes, thiacalixarenes and calixresorbins). The Institute's developments have great innovation potential today. The Institute's staff published 8,000 scientific articles, 90 monographs and obtained 1550 copyright certificates and patents. The Institute has trained 350 candidates and 65 doctors of science during its work.
