The struggle for freedom, scientific activity, three decades in prison and a business trip to the front as a sniper are far from all the stages of the life of the revolutionary and honorary academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences Nikolai Morozov (25 June (7 July) 1854 - 30 July 1946). He could rightfully be called the "universal man" of our time.

First steps


The future academician and revolutionary was born in 1854 in the estate of Borok (Yaroslavl Province) in the family of a landowner and a former serf peasant. Nikolai received his first training at home, but then entered the Second Moscow Gymnasium. However, he studied poorly there and was soon expelled, after which he took up self-education. In 1871, Morozov became a volunteer at Moscow University.

In 1874 N.A. Morozov joined the circle of Tchaikovsky Narodniks. Together with his comrades, he traveled to the nearest provinces and actively communicated with peasants. In the same year, Morozov went to Switzerland to represent the interests of Tchaikovsky at international events. Then he joined the ranks of the First International.

In 1875, Morozov returned to Russia and was immediately arrested on suspicion of revolutionary activity. Three years later, the trial “193's Trial” took place, according to the results of which Morozov was released - the pre-trial detention fully covered the sentence imposed.

Young revolutionary


After the conclusion and trial N.A. Morozov, with renewed vigor, set about revolutionary work, but already in an illegal position. Soon he entered the organization “Earth and Freedom”, and then became one of its leaders and the secretary of her eponymous newspaper.

In 1879, Morozov was among the creators of the "People’s Will." This organization deemed necessary a radical struggle and prepared the appropriate “actions”. Several attempts on the emperor Alexander II were carried out with the direct participation of N.A. Morozova.

However, already in 1880 Mr. Morozov disagreed with his fellow revolutionaries and went abroad. The reason for this was the disagreement about the role of terror in the political struggle. Companions of Morozov considered him an extreme measure, which should be abandoned in the future, and he saw in power methods a normal tool for regular use. Soon, these views were formed in the form of a concept called “telism” - by the name of William Tell.

In January 1881 N.A. Morozov and his wife illegally returned to Russia and were arrested. A year later, as part of the “Process of Twenty,” he was sentenced to life imprisonment. Morozov served his sentence at first in the Peter and Paul Fortress, and from 1884 — in Shlisselburg. The appearance of the playful nickname “Frost of Shlisselburgsky” is associated with this period.

Universal scientist


ON. Morozov did not lose heart and did not waste time. Having access to literature, he continued his self-education. The imprisoned revolutionary studied foreign languages, natural and social sciences, and even wrote his own scientific works. By the time of his unexpected release, Morozov managed to learn 11 languages ​​and write 26 volumes (!) Of manuscripts on various topics, including on current issues of various sciences.

On 28 on October 1905 an amnesty was declared, and Morozov was released. Together with him, he took numerous manuscripts and voluminous knowledge in many areas. It can rightfully be argued that from the conclusion of N.A. Morozov was one of the most educated and erudite people of his time.

After his release, the future academician was mainly engaged in scientific work, but did not forget about the struggle for the freedom of the people. He attempted to publish his scientific works, got married and even joined the Masonic Lodge "The Polar Star". In 1909, Mr. Morozov received an invitation to become chairman of the Council of the Russian Society of Lovers of World Studies (ROLM). He held this position until the dissolution of ROLM in 1932.

In 1911-12 Morozov again had to go to prison. However, at the beginning of 1913, another amnesty took place, and the scientist was released - this time forever. By this time, from the 59 years of life of N.A. Morozov spent almost 30 in prison.

Revolutionary after the revolution


Events 1917 Mr. N.A. Morozov accepted with enthusiasm, although he did not share the positions of the Bolsheviks. Despite disagreements with the new government, a prominent scientist continued his activities and even received new posts and titles.

In 1918 Morozov became director of the Natural Science Institute. P.F. Lesgaft. He remained in this position until the end of his life. On the initiative of the new director, the publication of scientific works on various issues in the field of natural sciences began. These books promoted progressive theories in the field of the structure of matter, astronautics, etc. Later, the main works of N.A. Morozov and his EIW colleagues were highly appreciated by leading scientists of the country and the world. However, some historical research and concepts has not found support in academia.

In 1932, the Lenghub Executive Committee closed the ROLM, chaired by Morozov. This was preceded by an investigation that revealed an “counter-revolutionary grouping” in the organization. Unlike some colleagues, N.A. Morozov after that was not subjected to harassment, although he had to move to his native village for a while. Borok. In the same period, Morozov was elected honorary academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences.

However, after that, the scientist continued his work. The main base for scientific activity was now an observatory, previously built by the forces of ROLM. In 1939, a real scientific center appeared in the village. Later, on its basis, new organizations were created, now related to the RAS.

Sniper


At the age of 85 years N.A. Morozov became interested in shooting. In 1939, he enrolled in OSOAVIAHIM, for sniper courses. Despite his venerable age, the revolutionary scientist mastered sniper business and then regularly visited the shooting range to maintain skills.

After the attack of Nazi Germany, Academician Morozov, who was working in Leningrad at that time, turned to the draft board - he wanted to go to the front as a volunteer. Due to age, he was refused. However, the sniper scientist continued to write letters and even threaten to appeal to the “top”.

In 1942, the military registration and enlistment office "surrendered" and accepted N.A. Morozov to the service. However, he was taken as a volunteer business trip as a sniper and allowed to go to the front, but only for a month. Soon Morozov was in one of the units of the Volkhov Front.

Despite his considerable age, the “rookie” turned out to be a true professional. The sniper regularly went to the firing position and hunted down the enemy. As befits a scientist, before each shot he did all the necessary calculations - and hit without a miss. For a month of business trip N.A. Morozov killed about a dozen enemy soldiers and commanders.

After a month of service, the scientist was returned from the front to the rear and offered to re-engage in scientific activities. However, after that N.A. Morozov continued to write letters demanding that he be returned to the front. However, now the correspondence did not give the desired result.

After breaking the blockade, honorary academician Morozov was awarded the medal "For the Defense of Leningrad." Soon he was awarded the first Order of Lenin. In 1945, the scientist was awarded the second Order of Lenin, and also received the medal "For Valiant Labor in the Great Patriotic War 1941 — 1945."

Scientific heritage


Returning to Leningrad, N.A. Morozov continued his scientific work, and now research is carried out by Yenin. Lesgaft were conducted taking into account the needs of a warring country. New research was carried out and fresh relevant scientific papers were published.

Honorary Academician, Revolutionary, and Sniper passed away on July 30 1946 in his home in Bork. A museum was later organized there. In memory of the scientist, streets, enterprises, a small planet and a crater on the moon were called. Moreover, the first objects were named during the life of Morozov.

Nikolai Alexandrovich Morozov lived a long and stormy life, leaving a great legacy. His works touched many areas and made a significant contribution to laying the foundation for subsequent practical achievements. Morozov can rightfully be considered one of our main natural scientists of the 20th century and one of the founders of Russian space science.

The scientific heritage of Morozov is preserved. So, the Russian Academy of Sciences created the resource “N.A. Archive Morozova "- 13 inventories and 135,7 thousand sheets are fully digitized and available to everyone.

      one of the main studies of the scientist Morozov is the discovery of falsification of the chronology of history, on which the modern teaching of the historians Fomenko and Nosovsky is based.
      Morozov suggested moving ancient dates closer to modern ones, because using astronomical calculations, he calculated that many events that have come down to us in the "ancient" sources are not calculated correctly.

            But to insult, like "dog business" is too much, you yourself show your face. Be polite even if you dislike something.
            By the way, I somehow put up with mistakes in comments, but if a journalist makes such mistakes, I cannot understand. Either time "presses", or simply does not pay attention to the work.

        any event that happened at that moment is inevitable, in a moment history already falls in. Therefore, knowledge of history and the reasons for which events occur, understanding the logic of building up events of the past is the basis for predicting events in the future. This is the power of knowledge of history.
        The methods of dating events of the past, proposed by Morozov, are being successfully applied now, for example, dating by horoscopes. So no one except them calculated the dates. Historians Fomenko and Nososvsky have already deciphered many Egyptian and Italian horoscopes and, accordingly, the picture of the past is strongly shifted from the invented "millennia" mainly into the second millennium AD.

        How can you take all these Morozov's "studies" seriously? After all, Morozov himself was engaged in falsification, he was in prison for too long, and he read too much of the Bible, for lack of other books.

          probably it’s possible, because for some time since his imprisonment Morozov was quite free to receive any ordered literature, therefore he is an encyclopedic scientist.

              He cannot be weak, this is an assessment of the humanities. What is "weak" then? In what I did not see, what does everyone else see? Duc the fact is that, on the contrary, he pushed off from universal knowledge and was able to move to another level of understanding, just inaccessible to the majority.
              He cannot be "weak", because his methods are, first of all, mathematical methods.

                I will only repeat myself, if I spent so much time in jail as he spent, and had nothing to read from the Bible, then - yes, his level of understanding was different from most.
                Of course, he would have been an extraordinary person and lived an interesting life, probably even too much.

              By the way, here we have already a cardinal discrepancy in the personality of Morozov. He is not a terrorist, but a representative of the will of the people in liberation from foreign tyranny, the tyranny of tsarism.
              In assessing the personality of Morozov, we have ideological differences.

        ,,, um, interesting what why at that time, with such views on history, he was not subjected to persecution, as Fomenko is criticized in our time.
        Morozov gives not only a new chronology of Russian history, but also shows in whose interests it was written (Catholics, Ivan III, etc.). According to Morozov there was no Tatar-Mongol, but there was a “Tatar yoke”, instead of the Horde, Russia paid tribute to the Order, the Russian princes did not go to Saray on the Volga, but to Sarajevo on the Balkans, Genghis Khan was none other than Pope Innocent III, but Khan Batuy means Batyai, i.e., the same Roman pope, etc. From the capture of Constantinople by the crusaders in 1204 to the marriage of Ivan III to Sophia, Paleolog Russia was Uniate. The proof of this is the beginning of a new year in Russia in March, confirmed by astronomical phenomena in Russian annals, as was customary in Catholic countries.

        Oh, yes ... I had no doubt that this issue would be raised in the discussion. laughing
        By this time, out of 59 years of life, N.A. Morozov spent almost 30 in prison.

        Or maybe a wedge is kicked out by wedge? Send Fomenko and his followers to where their new chronology originated? Well, not for thirty years, of course, but at least for half a year, but each ... laughing
        But seriously, Morozov, of course, is a rather odious person.
        A rebel in everything, prone to violence, who considered the most effective way to solve almost all existing problems, not having a classic self-taught scholar. Steel will, outstanding intellect, pathological desire to overthrow everything in the world simply out of sporting interest, amazing self-conceit and adherence to extremely radical decisions, are such a normal character.
        I am sure that he studied sniper business solely in order to have an advantage over opponents in scientific discussions. laughing
        Morozov reminds me of something of our Olgovich, or rather, on the contrary, Olgovich reminds Morozov.
        Keeping in memory a terrifying amount of information on completely different scientific disciplines and even being able to freely use this information, Morozov could not, like Olgovich, generalize this knowledge, link it into a single system, thus building something integral and indestructible.
        And it turns out this, most likely, because both of them had a dominant idea, the implementation of which they both devote their abilities to the detriment of objectivity and common sense. For Morozov, this dominant idea is the overthrow of the foundations of everything and everything, for Olgovich, you yourself know. smile
        There is another character in science, somewhat similar to Morozov - Lev Gumilyov. Equally broad erudition and powerful intellect, the same desire to "turn the world", to make a "revolution", but still expressed in a more academic, scientific form (therefore less orthodox), since Gumilev does not have all of his education, unlike Morozov got in jail.

            It was for this reason that I made such a proposal. smile
            But in general, of course, you are right, it will be cruel to the novokhronolazts only. But if, together with them, Klesovites, Samsonists and other folkhistorics were sent there (I do not mean those who only read, but those who also write), then this is no longer cruelty, but a fair retribution. They will not feel sorry for us if they reach our heads, believe me.
            And half a year is not such a long time. The main thing is that there should be strict isolation from the Internet and from each other, and access only to high-quality scientific historical literature.
            Those who survive after breaking will become normal people. Those who have passed along this path of the point of no return should be treated with medication.
            Although sometimes, in a difficult mood, it seems to me that it would be nice to put the main distributors of this infection under wooden scaffolds, as the Mongols put on our princes on Kalka, and immediately, from above, lay it right like this - slowly and inevitably, lay out everything their works collected in all stores and home libraries of the country. And see what happens.
            So, half a year alone is normal. I am kinder than good.

            After reading the article, the feeling that I was missing something did not leave me. Now it dawned on me after I reviewed the documents you posted.
            I think it is quite possible that Comrade Morozov, among other things, was also an acting agent of the Cheka, and not just an agent, but an agent provocateur.
            In 1932, the Lengubispolcom closed the ROLM, chaired by Morozov. This was preceded by an investigation that revealed an “counter-revolutionary grouping” in the organization. Unlike some colleagues, N.A. Morozov after that was not subjected to harassment, although he had to move to his native village for a while. Borok.

            He was the head of the counter-revolutionary organization, and he was scolded and sent to a reference (they didn’t even send, he left for his homeland), in the same year he was elected to the Academy of Sciences, and a few years later they began to award orders. In the USSR, at that time, where, as for lesser sins, the Soviet regime was put to the wall without hesitation and no revolutionary past saved, rather the opposite.

      who went on a scientific path of development in prison

      In prison, only religious literature was allowed, and Morozov began to study the Bible, eventually writing several dozen volumes of manuscripts on a pseudo-religious topic, his "Christ" alone - a seven-volume, very illiterate, confused and obscure literary work.
      An ardent supporter of the February Revolution, which was not even mentioned in the article, he had no disagreements with the Bolsheviks, and could not be, Morozov was a terrorist to the core.

For which he was executed by hanging on April 3 (15), together with his like-minded comrades ----- the revolutionaries Zhelyabov, Perovskaya and other participants in the assassination attempt,

    I want to add to the article. I published in "VO" an article "Instructed to broadcast to the whole country." In this article I talked about the life of the scientist S.V. Spirov. my director, and since 1979 my friend. Spirov S.V. in 1942 he recreated the Far East radio station in besieged Leningrad. She conducted transmissions at a distance of more than 2500 km. Every day a metronome went on the air on this station, which measured at 17 seconds. This meant that the fighters of the Leningrad Front sent another fascist to the next world. The effect was amazing. Hitler and Goebbels could do nothing to silence the station. The station antenna was suspended from the airship barriers. For this work Spirov S.V. was awarded the Order of the Red Star.
    And my father died on the Leningrad Front on 27.12.1941/XNUMX/XNUMX. Major, gunner.
