“Bonfires were burning all night...”: about A. N. Tolstoy’s work on the novel “Peter the Great”
The archives of Moscow and St. Petersburg have preserved materials for A. Tolstoy’s novel „Peter the Great.” Among them, there are sources of text, autographs, and typesetting with copyright, with descriptions of interrogations and executions of archers. They form a single “plot” and help to reproduce the sequence of the writer’s work on the text, which completes the last chapter of the first book of the novel. The samples of handwritten and printed sketches for individual scenes of the novel “Peter the Great”, stored in the ar-chives of Moscow and St. Petersburg, help to restore the writer’s working process on the text.
