The entire book "Rasputin in Russia", from the biography of Rasputin, his appearance on the socio-political horizon to the moment of his murder - all these data are nothing more than a chronicle of the seven-year Rasputin era, a chronicle that has now become historical.".

Autobiographical novelAuthor: Alexander KuprinTitle: Junkera (Junkers).Publisher: Editions et librairie «La Renaissance» (Vozrojdenie), Paris, 1933First russian edition328 pagesLanguage: Russian In May 1916 in the newspaper "Evening News" was placed Kuprina interview, talked about his future plans: "... I began to hunt for the end of" junkers ", - informed the writer - this novel is a kind of continuation of my own story" At the turn (Cadets). " Here I am all in the power of images and memories cadet life with her front and inner life, with quiet joy of first love and meetings at dance parties with their "likes." Remember cadet years tradition of our military schools, types of caregivers and teachers. And I remember a lot of good ... I hope that this fall will release this story to light. " (M. Petrov, Y AIKuprin, "Evening News", 1916, May 3, № 973). The revolutionary events in Russia and the subsequent emigration stopped work on a novel writer. Only in 1928, five years before the publication of the novel as a book, in the newspaper "Renaissance" appear some of its chapters. Two years later, in "Renaissance" were printed a few more chapters. Separate edition of the novel was published only in 1933. В мае 1916 года в газете «Вечерние известия» было помещено интервью Куприна, рассказавшего о своих творческих планах: «... с охотой я принялся за окончание «Юнкеров», — сообщал писатель, — повесть эта представляет собой отчасти продолжение моей же повести «На переломе (Кадеты)». Здесь я весь во власти образов и воспоминаний юнкерской жизни с ее парадною и внутреннюю жизнью, с тихой радостью первой любви и встреч на танцевальных вечерах со своими «симпатиями». Вспоминаю юнкерские годы, традиции нашей военной школы, типы воспитателей и учителей. И помнится много хорошего ... Надеюсь, что осенью текущего года выпущу эту повесть в свет». (Петров М., У А.И. Куприна, «Вечерние известия», 1916, 3 мая, №973). Революционные события в России и последовавшая затем эмиграция прервали работу писателя над романом. Только в 1928 году, за пять лет до издания романа отдельной книгой, в газете «Возрождения» появляются отдельные его главы. Двумя годами позже  в «Возрождении» были напечатаны еще несколько глав. Отдельным изданием роман вышел только в 1933 году.

Lavra Archim. Antonia" (1875).   The manuscript comes from the collection of Archimandrite Anthony (in the world Andrey Gavrilovich Medvedev; 1792-1877), vicar of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra, a locally venerated Saint. Manuscript of the XVIII century from the library of the Vicar of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra Archimandrite Anthony with his entry in 1875 Not the least role in the appeal of Nikolai Novikov to the organization of Moscow masons was played by personal friendship with many prominent figures of Freemasonry, common literary and public interests. He was obliged to get acquainted with M. M. Kheraskov by renting a printing house of the Moscow University. After moving to Moscow, "here he became close to the most energetic Mason of "strict observation", Professor I. E. Shvarts. Together they quickly organized a "friendly society", a "Pedagogical Seminary", a book publishing house, and a Masonic circle – a memorable decade in the history of the Russian enlightenment came, which Klyuchevsky called"Novikov".   In his book publishing, bookselling, and charitable activities in Moscow, he also constantly relied on the help, assistance, and cooperation of Freemasons, members of the "Friendly learned society" and the "Printing company". In addition, it relied on the organizational base of Freemasons. A few years after Novikov joined this movement, his book publishing, magazine, cultural, educational, and philanthropic activities took on a Grand scale. He arranged, improved, and distributed the University printing press. He developed the book trade on an extensive scale not only in Moscow, but also in other cities. Although he published in his printing houses the mystical books "Knowledge of oneself" by John Mason, the program Masonic work "Chrysomander" and many other publications of the martinists, he did not limit himself to the narrow limits of mystical and moral literature. In its huge book and magazine production of the 80's, civic, educational tendencies and motives were undivided.   Novikov paid little attention to Masonic Affairs, as he admitted more than once: "On my arrival in Moscow in 1779, I was exercised and completely occupied with printing matters, and I did not engage in Freemasonry at all." His time was more occupied with the publication of the most advanced philosophical, literary and socio-political works of the Enlightenment: satires and stories of Voltaire, prints in the" Pustomel "free-thinking work Fonvizin "Message to the servants", in the" Moscow edition "puts Diderot's article "the Philosopher" from the "Encyclopedia", expounds the ideas of Locke.
