div Located in the northernmost reaches of Russia, the islands of Solovki are among the most remote in the world. And yet from the Bronze Age through the twentieth century, the islands have attracted an astonishing cast of saints and scoundrels, soldiers and politicians. The site of a beautiful medieval monastery—once home to one of the greatest libraries of eastern Europe—Solovki became in the twentieth century a notorious labor camp. Roy Robson recounts the history of Solovki from its first settlers through the present day, as the history of Russia plays out on this miniature stage. In the 1600s, the piety and prosperity of Solovki turned to religious rebellion, siege, and massacre. Peter the Great then used it as a prison. But Solovki’s glory was renewed in the nineteenth century as it became a major pilgrimage site—only to descend again into horror when the islands became, in the words of Alexander Solzhenitsyn, the “mother of the Gulag” system. From its first intrepid visitors through the blood-soaked twentieth century, Solovki—like Russia itself—has been a site of both glorious achievement and profound misery. /DIV

First Published in 1996. The Russian Theatre Archive makes available in English the best avantgarde plays, from the pre-Revolutionary period to the present day. It features monographs on major playwrights and theatre directors, introductions to previously unknown works, and studies of the main artistic groups and periods. Plays are presented in performing edition translations, including (where appropriate) musical scores, and instructions for music and dance. Whenever possible the translated texts will be accompanied by videotapes of performances of plays in the original language. Prison camp theatre is a theme justified by actual life, even though the marriage of such concepts as 'theatre' and 'prison camp' may appear, to the ordinary mind, preposterous.

In 1923, the Soviet state decided to create a prison camp on the Solovki archipelago, the site of a former monastery. It became the laboratory of the Gulag, where the techniques of labour-camp exploitation were developed. Prisoners died by the hundreds both within the walls of the monastery and in the frozen forests beyond. Yet the camp's activities in cultural re-education were surprisingly extensive. With the connivance of part of the administration, Solovki became a unique cultural citadel, where the values of a dying intelligentsia were reflected in the works and words of the prisoners, who numbered not only poets and actors but also figures such as the revered Russian scholar Dmitrii Likhachev (1906-99). Andrea Gullotta's thoroughly documented study reconstructs the cultural history of the camp and provides an in-depth analysis of the literary works published in the press of the Solovki camp up until 1930, thus changing the current research frame on Gulag literature and shedding light on the extraordinary fight of an isolated group of men for intellectual freedom. Andrea Gullotta is lecturer in Russian at the University of Glasgow.

'Solovki' es como llaman los rusos al archipiélago Solovetsky (Rusia), en mitad del Mar Blanco. En la zona más protegida de la isla, a orillas de un puerto natural, se encuentra el complejo ortodoxo Monasterio Solovetsky, Patrimonio de la Humanidad. Pero Solovki, además, fue una prisión soviética, y no una cualquiera. Según Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Solovki fue la madre del Gulag, el terrible sistema soviético penal de campos de trabajo. Activo desde 1924 hasta 1939, fue el campo que sirvió de modelo y base para todas las prisiones que vendrían después.Juan Manuel Castro Prieto y Rafael Trapiello han querido explorar visualmente este territorio, buscando la relación entre infierno y paraíso que lo define. Utilizando una estrategia narrativa más cercana a la poesía que al documental, en todas sus imágenes está presente la extraña tensión que existe entre la espiritualidad y la belleza del entorno y el terrible pasado que soportan las islas sobre sus espaldas.

Reality is not as is, but as interpreted. Humans are caged, not freed, by the logic of own thought that conceals everyone behind own egocentric self. Emotions and intuition are created by magic, golden irrational that is ratio and balance. The irrational separates number from magnitude, while this magnitude cannot be found. The logical, rational thought, as the sole expression of our civilization, starts from somewhere, follows a logical path, and ends with a conclusion because all ideas have an end in themselves. How close to this conclusion, or end are we? Is the rational world only a distorted projection of the irrational world? Does civilization make sense only for a linear mind?

The late 1920s... Convicted of murdering his father, Artiom Goriainov is serving a sentence of several years on the Solovki Archipelago. Artiom is a strong young man who survives all facets of the hell that is the Soviet camps: hunger, cold, betrayal, the death of friends, a failed escape attempt and a love affair. Unlike the many political prisoners at Solovki, he has no strong convictions. He is an everyman who, like the Virgil of Solovki, simply narrates what is happening in front of his eyes. His only motivation is to survive. Founded in the 15th century on an archipelago in the White Sea, from 1923 the monastery became a “camp of special designation,” the foundation stone of the Soviet GULAG system. The novel describes a period when Solovki was being converted from a re-education camp for “socially damaging elements” into what eventually became a mass labor camp. The notion of a Utopia for “forging new human beings,” complete with a library, athletic events, and research laboratories, eventually mutated into a hell of despotism and brutality. Published with the support of the Institute for Literary Translation, Russia
