22.09.2008 - Interpretation of dali48   

Rejecting the ideology of his youth, Solzhenitsyn came to believe that the struggle between good and evil cannot be resolved among parties, classes or doctrines, but is waged within the individual human heart - During the Cold War years, this Tolstoyan view and search for Christian morality was considered radical in the ideological atmosphere of the Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s... - As with Boris Pasternak, the Soviet government denounced Solzhenitsyn's Nobel Prize as a politically hostile act - "If Solzhenitsyn continues to reside in the country after receiving the Nobel Prize, it will strengthen his position, and allow him to propaganda... - his views more actively," wrote the KGB chief Yuri Andropov in a secret... - memorandum. In 1974 the author was exiled from the Soviet Union... - He lived first in Switzerland and moved then in 1976 to the United States, where he continued to write series called The Red Wheel, an epic history of the events, that led to the Russian Revolution... - After collapse of the Soviet Union, Solzhenitsyn returned from Vermont to his native land in 1994. The new regime, led by Mikhail S. Gorbachev, had offered to restore his citizenship already in 1990, and next year his treason charges... - were formally dropped... - Solzhenitsyn settled in Moscow, where he continued to criticize western materialism and Russian bureaucracy and secularization... - "For me faith is the foundation and support of one's life," Solzhenitsyn said in a Spiegel interview (July 23, 2007)... - Solzhenitsyn (1918 - 2008) died from a heart condition on August 3, 2008... (from Pegasos Author's Calendar)

When Solzhenitsyn was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970, he was already an outcast in his native country, the Soviet Union... - After the novel "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" and a few short stories he had not been permitted to publish anything. He had been expelled from the Writer's Union, and the harassment from the CP and the KGB, the Comission for State Security, had made him isolated and exposed him to condemnation from the official media... - The Laureate answered that the conditions were "an insult to the Nobel Prize itself" and wondered if the Prize was "something to be ashamed of, something to be concealed from the people"... (by S. Fredrikson, 2006)

18.09.2008 - Interpretation von dali48

We shall be told: what can literature possibly do against the ruthless onslaught of open violence? - But let us not forget that violence does not live alone and is not capable of living alone: it is necessarily intervowen with falsehood. Between them lies the most intimate, the deepest of natural bonds. Violence finds its only refuge in falsehood, falsehood its only support in violence. Any man who has once acclaimed violence as his Method must inexorably choose falsehood as his Principle. At its birth violence acts openly and even with pride. But no sooner does it become strong, firmly established, then it senses the rarefaction of the air around it and cannot continue to exist without descending into a fog of lies, clothing them in sweet talk. It does always, not necessarily, openly throttle the throat, more often it demands from its subjects only an oath of allegiance to falsehood, only complicity in falsehood... (A. Solzhenitsyn, Nobel L. 1970)

We all know that an artist's work cannot be contained within the wretched dimensions of politics - For this dimension cannot hold the whole of our life and we must not restrain our social consciousness within its bounds... (A. Solzhenitsyn, Banquet Sp. 1974)

Lacking a strong fictive sense, he could never have invented an Inferno, as Dante did - he didn't need to, because this Russian Inferno existed. He hacked the salamander out of the ice - No one else in world literature, ever, could have done it... (D. M. Thomas in A. Solzhenitsyn, 1998)

Golden Snow  
Living with falsehoods is terrible, for the one who engages in doing so and for the one who has to listen. It leaves a large and dangerous bridge to cross each day, never know the truth from the falsehoods.I lived with this for years dali48, it causes hurt and illness. Quote: Violence finds its only refuge in falsehood, falsehood its only support in violence.Unquote.


Due to this, he won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970, but also was exiled from the Soviet Union in 1974. In 1994, Solzhenitsyn went back to Russia. After he ...
Died‎: ‎3 August 2008 (aged 89); Moscow, Russia

March 1, 1998. In Exile Wherever He Goes. Solzhenitsyn survived the gulag, survived cancer, survived America. But the new Russia ... There is more than a hint of courage in D. M. Thomas's attempt at a chronicle in depth. As Thomas makes ...
