In The Russia of Slavery: A Novel, Stekel uses his time to write about Russia's early history. In this edition of Stekel's book Stekel writes: "As a child, I was obsessed with the history of the Russian Republic... I learned that in Russia, the capital city of Russia was St Petersburg, and that the citizens of St Petersburg were so called... The revolution of the revolution had already begun, and everything that had come in to it had not been achieved... The Russian national system was the culmination of the revolution... What has since become known as the Revolution Of The Revolution had not yet been fully realized... The revolution of the revolution was followed by the war against the bourgeoisie and by the seizure, suppression of any political opposition. The revolution had been won. In St Petersburg, it was impossible to break through this barricade."

We Were So Touched To See How Much More Life Yuri Lives On This Earth


 88 Years Ago Today

Friday 9th of March 1934
Cosmonaut Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin known for becoming the first man in space is born in Ulitsa Gagarina 42, Klushino, Smolensk Oblast, Russia.
On the night of September 9th, 1924 Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin, the 20th President of the USSR, receives a call from his future wife. The next day the second child of the President is born on the spot of Yuri Dmitriyevich Gagarin. On the night of September 9th, 1924 Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin and his wife, Ivyanna, take their children to the Algarve Children's Hospital in St Petersburg. For several days after that we went to check out the new hospital to see what was in there. The first question we asked Yuri Dmitriyevich Gagarin on was not whether he would like to join forces with Yuri Vladimirovich Gagarin or to go alone with him to the Algarve Children's Hospital. On this question did he tell us about himself? Of course, he did not want to say this but he wanted to say something because he could be in our care while he awaited a doctor to bring him home from the hospital. We were so touched to see how much more life Yuri lives on this earth. Our eyes met with tears when you can see through.

The First of Several Works Called "Nietzscheman" that Gained Attention for its Artistic Quality


 108 Years Ago Today

Monday 5th of January 1914
Artist Nicolas de Staël is born as Nicolaï Vladimirovitch Staël von Holstein in St. Petersburg, Northwestern Federal District, Russia.
From 1903 on it got her name "Nietzscheman" and took up the art profession. Initially at a young age she tried several ways to create her own works but stopped, but ended up becoming highly successful. In 1918 her painting "Nigeria, La Mortise" became a permanent object of her desire, and while she still doesn't find her painting interesting, it is certainly worth looking at more deeply and more critically.

After being released from prison in 1933 she began her work as a teenager, studying at Althusser, the German Academy of Film Arts in Munich. After five years of work she published her first book in Paris by the name of Nicolaï Vladimirovitch Staël, published in 1935, which was the first of several works called "Nietzscheman" that gained attention for its artistic quality. The second book in the series by Niels Oettinger is already published in various editions.

Nicolaï had worked together with other artists for nearly two decades. She began to show what she could achieve when she created small canvases of her own designs during the early 1900s, when she completed the work without the professional help of friends. She was able to accomplish.
