Ivan Ilyin: Singing Heart. Lev ilyin

Ilyin Leonid Andreevich - Director of the State Scientific Center - Institute of Biophysics, Academician and Vice-President of the Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR, Moscow.
Born on March 15, 1928 in the city of Kharkov, Ukrainian SSR (now Ukraine) in the family of Andrei Vasilievich (1893-1968) and Valentina Vasilievna (1903-1944) Ilinykh.
Graduated from the 1st Leningrad Medical Institute with honors in 1953. He served in the Navy. He was the head of the medical service of a battleship, then he created the first radiological laboratory in the Black Sea Fleet. After demobilization, he worked in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) as a senior researcher in the biomedical department of the Research Institute of the USSR Navy.
In 1961 he was elected by competition as the head of the radiation protection laboratory of the Leningrad Research Institute of Radiation Hygiene of the USSR Ministry of Health, in 1962 he was appointed deputy director for scientific work of this institute. From 1968 to the present, director and scientific director of the State Scientific Center - Institute of Biophysics, which was awarded the Order of Lenin in 1977 for the successes achieved in the development of medical science, health care and personnel training.
Ilyin's main scientific research is devoted to the most important areas of radiation medicine: research and development of drugs and means of protecting the body from the effects of gamma-neutron radiation, the incorporation of radionuclides in the body and contact radioactive contamination of the skin, wounds and burns; development of medical and hygienic problems of protecting professionals and the public during the creation and development of new nuclear technologies and in the event of radiation accidents; regulation of permissible levels of human exposure; radiobiology of low-intensity radiation and predicting the stochastic consequences of radiation exposure of people.
In 1974 he was elected a corresponding member, and in 1978 - a full member (academician) of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences (since 1991 - RAMS).
Thanks to the work of Ilyin, his students and staff, highly effective drugs for the prevention and treatment of acute radiation injuries have been created, tested and introduced into domestic practice. For example, the radioprotector indralin as a means of preventing gamma-neutron irradiation is adopted in the nuclear industry and energy, in the nuclear fleet and in other specialized organizations. The drug deoxinate is recommended as one of the effective treatments for acute radiation injuries. As a result of Ilyin's research, to combat the incorporation of various radionuclides in the body, preparations have been developed and produced algisorb, ferrocin, stable iodine preparations and a group of complexones. Known to practitioners, the drug "Zashchita" is one of the most effective means for decontamination of the skin from the fission products of uranium and plutonium.
The name of Ilyin is associated with the development and implementation into the practice of the nuclear industry and power engineering of special portable first-aid kits for professionals and first-aid kits for the population with appropriate anti-radiation drugs for use in case of radiation accidents. Based on his ideas and with his direct participation, medical and biological means and special systems for protecting personnel from one of the types of nuclear weapons were developed, for which he was awarded the Lenin Prize in 1985. He took part several times, including as a scientific advisor, in testing the developed drugs in field conditions. Veteran of Special Risk Units.
From 1980 to 1984 he was a member of the Presidium, and from 1984 to 1990 - vice-president of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences. For two terms (1993-2000) he was elected a member of the Main Committee of the International Commission on Radiation Protection (ICRP). Since 1972, he has been the representative of the USSR, then the Russian Federation in the UN Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR).
Under the leadership and with the direct participation of Ilyin, domestic regulations for emergency exposure of people were developed and, for the first time in world practice (1971), methodological recommendations for protecting the population in the event of an accident at nuclear reactors. These developments and their further modification (1983) became fundamental in justifying measures to protect people during and after the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in April 1986. From the first days and during the most difficult period of this disaster, he worked in the lesion focus, was one of the scientific leaders of medico-biological and hygienic work to mitigate the consequences of the accident, made fundamental decisions on the strategy and tactics of protecting people.
Ilyin is the first scientist in the world who developed and substantiated the forecast of the radiological consequences of this catastrophe, which was subsequently confirmed by leading foreign and domestic experts. Ilyin's theoretical works are devoted to one of the most pressing problems of radiation medicine and hygiene - the assessment of the real risks of human exposure and, on this basis, the regulation of the levels of low-intensity chronic exposure. He developed the concept of a "practical threshold" in radiation epidemiology and hygienic regulation.
By the decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of March 14, 1988 for great services in the development of medical science, the training of scientific personnel and in connection with the sixtieth anniversary of the birth of a full member of the Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR Ilyin Leonid Andreevich awarded the title of Hero of Socialist Labor with the award of the Order of Lenin and the Hammer and Sickle gold medal.
Author and co-author of 15 monographs, textbooks, manuals and more than 300 scientific publications. Among them are such fundamental monographs as "Fundamentals of protection of the body from the effects of radioactive substances" (1977), "Radioactive iodine in the problem of radiation safety" (1972), "Major radiation accidents: consequences and protective measures" (2001). Ilyin's monograph "Nuclear War: Medical and Biological Consequences" (1982, 1984), co-authored with EI Chazov and AK Guskova, was published in two editions and translated into five languages. This book played an important role in world policy of preventing nuclear catastrophe as one of the first scientific substantiations and estimates of the consequences of a thermonuclear war, indicating the impossibility of achieving victory in such a war. EI Chazov, L.A. Ilyin and A.M. Kuzin, together with three American scientists B. Laun, G. Miller and E. Chevian in December 1980 in Geneva (Switzerland) created the international movement "Doctors for the prevention of nuclear war ". In 1985, this movement was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
Ilyin's scientific and journalistic book "The Realities and Myths of Chernobyl" was published in two editions in Russia (1994, 1996), published in English (1995) and published in Japan (1998). In this monograph, the author for the first time, on the basis of his own research and work experience in Chernobyl, presented an objective picture of the medico-biological and psychosocial consequences of the disaster. Ilyin's textbook "Radiation Hygiene" (co-authored with V.F. technical universities in the preparation of specialists in the field of radioecology, dosimetry and protection.
Lives and works in the city of Moscow.
He was awarded 2 Orders of Lenin (09/03/1981, 03/14/1988), the Order of the Red Banner of Labor (07/20/1971), medals.

Write a review about the article "Ilyin, Lev Alexandrovich"

Notes (edit)

An excerpt characterizing Ilyin, Lev Alexandrovich

- As a sign of obedience, I ask you to undress. - Pierre took off his tailcoat, waistcoat and left boot as instructed by the rhetorician. The Mason opened the shirt on his left chest and, bending down, lifted his pant leg on his left leg above the knee. Pierre hastily wanted to take off his right boot and roll up his trousers in order to save a stranger from this labor, but the Mason told him that this was not necessary - and gave him a shoe on his left foot. With a childish smile of bashfulness, doubt and mockery at himself, which appeared against his will on his face, Pierre stood with his hands down and legs apart in front of his brother the rhetorician, waiting for his new orders.
“And finally, as a sign of sincerity, I ask you to reveal to me your main addiction,” he said.
- My addiction! I had so many of them, ”Pierre said.
“That attachment that more than any other made you waver on the path of virtue,” said the Freemason.
Pierre was silent for a moment, looking for it.
"Wine? Gluttony? Idleness? Laziness? Hotness? Malice? Women?" He went over his vices, mentally weighing them and not knowing which one to give the advantage.
“Women,” Pierre said in a low, barely audible voice. The Mason did not move and did not speak for long after this answer. Finally he moved over to Pierre, took the handkerchief that was lying on the table, and again blindfolded him.
- For the last time I tell you: turn all your attention to yourself, put chains on your feelings and look for bliss not in your passions, but in your heart. The source of bliss is not outside, but inside us ...
Pierre already felt this refreshing source of bliss in himself, which now filled his soul with joy and tenderness.

Soon after that, it was not the former rhetorician who came to the dark temple for Pierre, but the guarantor Villarsky, whom he recognized by his voice. To new questions about the firmness of his intention, Pierre replied: "Yes, yes, I agree," and with a radiant childish smile, with an open, fat chest, unevenly and timidly striding with one barefoot and one shod foot, he walked forward with Villarsky put on his naked chest with a sword. From the room he was led down the corridors, turning back and forth, and finally led to the door of the box. Villarski coughed, they answered him with Masonic knocks of hammers, the door opened in front of them. Someone's bass voice (Pierre's eyes were still blindfolded) asked him questions about who he was, where, when he was born? and so on. Then they again took him somewhere, without unbinding his eyes, and while walking he was told allegories about the labors of his journey, about sacred friendship, about the eternal Builder of the world, about the courage with which he must endure labors and dangers ... During this trip, Pierre noticed that he was called now seeking, now suffering, now demanding, and at the same time they knocked differently with hammers and swords. While being led to some subject, he noticed that there was confusion and confusion between his leaders. He heard the surrounding people arguing among themselves in a whisper, and how one insisted that he be led over some kind of carpet. After that, they took his right hand, put it on something, and with the left ordered him to put a compass to his left breast, and made him, repeating the words that the other read, read the oath of fidelity to the laws of the order. Then they put out the candles, lit alcohol, as Pierre heard from the smell, and they said that he would see a small light. The bandage was removed from him, and Pierre, as in a dream, saw, in the weak light of the spirit fire, several people who, in the same aprons as the rhetorician, stood opposite him and held swords pointed at his chest. Between them stood a man in a white, bloody shirt. Seeing this, Pierre moved his chest forward onto the swords, wanting them to sink into him. But the swords pulled away from him and immediately put on the bandage again. “Now you saw a small light,” a voice told him. Then they lit candles again, said that he needed to see the full light, and again they took off the bandage and more than ten voices suddenly said: sic transit gloria mundi. [this is how worldly glory passes.]
Pierre gradually began to come to his senses and look around the room where he was and the people in it. Around a long table covered in black sat about twelve people, all wearing the same robes as those he had seen before. Pierre knew some of them from Petersburg society. An unfamiliar young man sat in the chair, wearing a special cross around his neck. On the right hand sat an Italian abbot whom Pierre had seen two years ago at Anna Pavlovna's. There was also a very important dignitary and a Swiss tutor who had previously lived with the Kuragins. Everyone was solemnly silent, listening to the words of the chairman, who was holding a hammer in his hand. A burning star was embedded in the wall; on one side of the table there was a small carpet with various images, on the other there was something like an altar with the Gospel and a skull. Around the table were 7 large, church-like, candlesticks. Two of the brothers brought Pierre to the altar, put his feet in a rectangular position and ordered him to lie down, saying that he was throwing himself at the gates of the temple.
“He must get a shovel first,” one of the brothers said in a whisper.
- A! fullness please, said another.
Pierre, with confused, myopic eyes, disobeying, looked around him, and suddenly a doubt came over him. "Where I am? What am I doing? Are they not laughing at me? Wouldn't I be ashamed to remember this? " But this doubt lasted only one moment. Pierre looked back at the serious faces of the people around him, remembered everything that he had already gone through, and realized that it was impossible to stop halfway. He was horrified at his doubt and, trying to evoke the old feeling of emotion, threw himself at the gates of the temple. And indeed a feeling of tenderness, even stronger than before, came over him. When he lay for some time, they told him to get up and put on him the same white leather apron as the others, gave him a shovel and three pairs of gloves, and then the great master turned to him. He told him to try not to stain the whiteness of this apron, representing strength and purity; then, about the unexplained shovel, he said that he should work with it to cleanse his heart from vices and condescendingly smooth over the heart of his neighbor with it. Then about the first men's gloves he said that he could not know their meaning, but he had to keep them, about the other men's gloves he said that he should wear them in meetings and finally about the third women's gloves he said: “Dear brother, and these women's gloves are for you the essence is defined. Give them to the woman you will read the most. By this, freely believe in the integrity of your heart, the one whom you choose for yourself to be a worthy stone-maker. " And after a pause for a while, he added: "But observe, my dear brother, lest these unclean hands adorn the gloves." While the great master was pronouncing these last words, Pierre thought that the chairman was embarrassed. Pierre was even more embarrassed, blushed to tears, like children blush, began to look around uneasily, and there was an awkward silence.

Ivan Alexandrovich ILYIN Born on March 28 (old style), 1883, into a noble family of attorney at law of the District of the Moscow Court of Justice, provincial secretary Alexander Ivanovich Ilyin and his wife Ekaterina Yulievna Schweikert. The Ilyins lived at the corner of Ruzheyny Lane and Plyushchikha. The parents of the future philosopher were educated, religious people and strove to give their son a good upbringing.

Ivan studied first for five years at the 5th Moscow gymnasium, and then for three years at the 1st Moscow gymnasium, among whose pupils were Tikhonravov, Vl. Soloviev, Milyukov. According to the recollections of a classmate, Ilyin was “light blond, almost red-haired, lean and long-legged; he studied well ... but, apart from a loud voice and wide, easy gestures, at that time he seemed to be in no way remarkable. Even his comrades did not imagine that philosophy could and did become his specialty. ”2 In 1901. he graduated from high school with a gold medal, having received an excellent classical education, in particular knowledge of several languages: Church Slavonic, Latin and Greek, French and German. On July 15, 1901, Ilyin submitted a petition to the rector of Moscow University to enroll him in the Faculty of Law, this opportunity was given to him by a brilliant certificate. At the university, he received fundamental training in law, which he studied under the guidance of the outstanding legal philosopher P.I. Novgorodtseva 3.

Here he developed a deep interest in philosophy. This is evidenced by his candidate's works about the ideal state of Plato and about Kant's doctrine of the "thing-in-itself" in the theory of knowledge, as well as six works that he submitted in the period 1906-1909 - "On the Science of Science" by Fichte, Senior edition of 1794 g. "," Schelling's doctrine of the Absolute "," The idea of the concrete and abstract in Hegel's theory of knowledge "," The idea of a common will in Jean-Jacques Rousseau "," Metaphysical foundations of Aristotle's doctrine of Doulos Fysei "4," The problem of method in modern jurisprudence ".

Upon graduation, Ilyin was awarded a first degree diploma, and in September 1906, at a meeting of the Faculty of Law at the suggestion of Prince. E.N. Trubetskoy, he was left at the university to prepare for a professorship5.

In the same year, Ilyin married Natalia Nikolaevna Vokach, who was spiritually close to him (she studied philosophy, art history, history) and shared with him all the hardships of his life.

In 1909, Ilyin passed the exams for a master's degree in public law and, after trial lectures, was approved as a privat-docent in the Department of the Encyclopedia of Law and the History of Philosophy of Law at Moscow University. In 1910 he became a member of the Moscow Psychological Society; in "Questions of Philosophy and Psychology" came out the one hundred and first scientific work "The concept of law and power."

At the end of the year, together with his wife, Ilyin went on a scientific trip and spent two years in Germany, Italy and France. He works at the universities of Heidelberg, Freiburg, Göttingen, Paris, gives lectures at the seminars of G. Rickert, G. Simmel, D. Nelson, E, Husserl (in communication with whom Ilyin comprehended the phenomenological method); at the University of Berlin is preparing a dissertation on Hegel's philosophy. Working on the Dissertation, Ilyin went far beyond the usual requirements for such texts. “I don’t want to approach it,” he wrote, “as an academic test and overshadow its scientific and creative character. I would like it to be a Leistung, not a blurry master's compilation. I dream to publish it later in German; for I know well that, like my last work on Fichte, no one will need it in Russia. And in Germany, maybe someone will do it.

My main aspiration is to curb in my work the formal-methodological approach, which disintegrates and diffuses everything in analysis, which is easy and peculiar to me, and to do what is more difficult and more important: to give a synthetically constructive dissection ”7.

Upon returning to Moscow, Ilyin continues to work at the university. His philosophical works began to appear: “The Idea of Personality in the Teachings of Stirner. Experience in the History of Individualism (1911), The Crisis of the Idea of the Subject in the Science of Fichte the Elder. The experience of systematic analysis "(1912)," Schleiermacher and his "Speeches about religion" (1912), "On courtesy. Socio-psychological experience "(1912)," On the revival of Hegelerianism "(1912)," Philosophy of Fichte as a religion of conscience "(1914)," The main moral contradiction of war "(1914)," The spiritual meaning of war "(1915), "Philosophy as Spiritual Doing" (1915), "Fundamentals of Jurisprudence. General doctrine of law and state "(1915). Six large articles on Hegel's philosophy were also published, which were later included in the famous two-volume monograph, published in 1918 and which became his dissertation ("Hegel's Philosophy as the Doctrine of the Concreteness of God and Man"), which he brilliantly defended, receiving at the same time two degrees: Master and Doctor of State Sciences.

The February revolution of 1917 posed a serious problem for Ilyin, the state system of his homeland collapsed; he is a legal scholar; what is his attitude to everything that happens? Ilyin defines it in five small but important pamphlets published between the two revolutions of the seventeenth year in the publication "Narodnoe Pravo".

They formulate his views on the foundations of the rule of law, on the way to overcome the revolution as a temporary social disorder in the pursuit of a new, just social order. “Every order of life,” he writes, “has certain shortcomings, and, as a general rule, the elimination of these shortcomings is achieved by abolishing unsatisfactory legal norms and establishing other, better ones. Each legal system must certainly open up this opportunity for people: to improve laws in accordance with the law, i.e. improve the legal order without violating the legal order. A legal system that closes this opportunity for all or for wide circles of the people, depriving them of access to legislation, is preparing itself an inevitable revolution8.

After the October Revolution, Ilyin lectures at the Faculty of Law of Moscow University and in other higher educational institutions in Moscow. He actively opposes official policy, defends the principles of academic freedom, which were trampled upon in those years. His position was clearly defined; later he wrote: “Do sick mothers leave the bed? And with a sense of guilt for her illness? Yes, they do, except for a doctor and medicine. But, (leaving for the medicine and the doctor, they leave someone at her bedside. And so we stayed at this bedside. We believed that everyone who does not go to the whites and who is not threatened with direct execution should remain in place " nine.

In this tragic situation, IA Ilyin continues to work: he writes "The Teaching on Legal Awareness" 10, becomes the chairman of the Moscow Psychological Society (he was elected in 1921 to replace the deceased L.M. Lopatin), and continues public speaking. The last of them took place in the spring of 1922 at a general meeting. Moscow Legal Society, where the main tasks of jurisprudence in Russia were discussed in the light of the 1917 revolution, the civil war that followed and the victory of the Bolsheviks. Ilyin believed that the tasks of Russian jurisprudence could be correctly formulated by those who, from beginning to end, observing this historical process on the spot - those who saw “both the old with all its ailments and in all its state power, and the immense trial of war, and the decline of the instinct of national self-preservation, and the fury of agrarian and property redistribution, and the despotism of the internationalists, and the three-year civil war, and the psychosis of greed, and the lack of will of laziness, and the economic devastation of communism, and the destruction of the national school, and terror, and hunger, and cannibalism, and death ... Of course, the experience we have received is not just a legal and political experience: it is deeper - to the level of moral and religious; it is broader - to the extent of the economic, historical and spiritual in general11.

Six times the Bolsheviks arrested Ilyin, twice he was tried (on November 30, 1918 at the Presidium of the Collegium of the Department for Combating Counter-Revolution and on December 28, 1918 at the Moscow Revolutionary Tribunal12), and both times he was acquitted for insufficient charges and amnestied. The last time he was arrested on September 4, 1922, he was accused of "not only did not reconcile with the existing Workers 'and Peasants' government in Russia, but for a single moment did not stop his anti-Soviet activities" 13.

On September 26, Ilyin and his wife, together with a large group of scientists, philosophers and writers expelled abroad, sailed from Petrograd to Stettin, to Germany.

A new stage in Ilyin's life began in Berlin, which lasted 16 years. Together with other Russian émigrés, he joined in the work of organizing the Religious and Philosophical Academy, the Philosophical Society and the journal attached to it. In January 1923 in Berlin, at the opening of the Russian Scientific Institute, Ilyin made a speech, later published as a separate brochure ("The Problem of Modern Legal Awareness"). He became a professor at this institute, read courses in the encyclopedia of law, history of ethical doctrines, introduction to philosophy and aesthetics in Russian and German. In 1923-1924. he was dean of the law faculty of this institute, in 1924 he was elected a corresponding member of the Slavic Institute at the University of London.

His lectures on Russian writers, on Russian culture, on the foundations of legal consciousness, on the revival of Russia, on religion and the church, on the Soviet regime, etc., with whom he was in 1926-1938, are varied. performing about 200 times in Germany, Latvia, Switzerland, Belgium, Czech Republic, Yugoslavia and Austria. But the central place in Ilyin's life was occupied by closely related politics and philosophical creativity. He was a member of the editorial office of the Parisian newspaper "Renaissance", edited by PB Struve, actively published in "Russian invalid", "New time", "New Way", "Russia and Slavs", "Russia" and other emigre publications. In 1927-1930. Ilyin was the editor-publisher of the Russian Bell magazine (9 issues were published). He participated in the work of the Russian Foreign Congress in the spring of 1926, maintained close ties with the Russian General Military Union (ROVS), taking part in the Saint-Julien Congress, organized in 1930 by the Russian Section of the International League of Struggle against the III International. Despite the fact that Ilyin was one of the ideologists of the White movement and was actively involved in political life, in his political philosophy he was based on the principles of outside and supranationalism, in particular, he was never a member of any political party or organization.

Since 1925, his major philosophical works began to appear abroad: “The religious meaning of philosophy. Three speeches "(1925)," On resistance to evil by force "(1925) (which caused a wide response to a noisy polemic both in the West and I in Russia)," The path of spiritual renewal. (1935), “Fundamentals of Art. On the Perfect in Art ”(1937). He is completing the book On Darkness and Enlightenment. Book of art criticism. Bunin - Remizov-Shmelev ”, but did not find a publisher for it (it was published only in 1959). His famous brochures were published: "The Motherland and We" (1926), "The Poison of Bolshevism" (1931), "On Russia. Three Speeches "(1934)," Creative Idea of Our Future "(1937)," Foundations of Christian Culture "(1937)," Foundations of the Struggle for National Russia "(1938)," The Crisis of Atheism "(1951), etc.

Ilyin very early was able to recognize the true face of Nazism. In 1934 (six months after Hitler came to power) for refusing to teach in accordance with the party program of the National Socialists, Ilyin was removed from the Institute. In 1938, the Gestapo seized all his published works and forbade him to speak in public. Having lost his source of existence, Ivan Alexandrovich decided to leave Germany and move to Switzerland. And although a ban was imposed on his departure, several happy accidents (in which he saw God's providence) helped him to obtain visas for himself and his wife, and in July 1938, the Ilyins left for Zurich. In Switzerland, they settled in the suburb of Zurich, Zollikon, where, with the help of friends and acquaintances, in particular, S.V. Rachmaninov, Ilyin tried to improve his life for the third time.

In Switzerland, Ilyin was banned from political activity, so he had to not sign 215 issues of correspondence reading bulletins, only for like-minded people, which he had been writing for the ROVS for six years. After his death, these political articles were published in the two-volume Our Tasks (1956). At the end of his life, Ivan Alexandrovich managed to complete and publish a work on which he worked for more than 33 years - Axioms of Religious Experience (1953), two volumes of research on religious anthology with extensive literary additions.

His numerous works are published in German. Among them, it should be noted “a triptych of philosophical and artistic prose - works connected by a single inner content and intention: 1.“ Ich schaue ins Leben. Ein Buch der Besinnung ”(I peer into life. A book of thoughts). 2. “Das verschollene Herz. Ein Buch stiller Betrachtungen "(Slowing heart. The book of quiet contemplation) (1943), 3." Blick in die Ferne. Ein Buch der Einsichten und der Hoffnungen ”(Looking into the distance. A book of reflections and hopes) (1945). “These three books,” wrote his student R.M. Zile, “represent a completely original literary creation: they are, as it were, collections of either philosophical sketches, or artistic meditations, or educational and in-depth observations on a wide variety of topics, but imbued one single creative act of writing - "SEE IN ALL AND SHOW THE GOD'S RAY" 14.

Ilyin gave different names to the Russian versions of these books: 1. “The Fires of Life. Book of Consolations ", 2." Singing Heart. The Book of Quiet Contemplation ”and 3.“ On the Coming Russian Culture ”. He completed the second book completely, worked on the third, but did not find publishers during his lifetime - “The Singing Heart” was published by his wife only in 1958.

Ilyin also tried to finish the book "On the Monarchy", prepared for publication "The Way to Evidence", put in order other works, but after frequent and prolonged illnesses on December 21, 1954, he died before he could finish his plans. Natalia Nikolaevna, who survived him by eight years, and later the researcher of his work N.P. Poltoratsky15 did a lot to publish new and republish old works of the remarkable Russian philosopher.

Buried Ivan Alexandrovich in Zollikon near Zurich. An epitaph is carved on the slab on the grave of Ilyin and his wife (she died on March 30, 1963):

So viel gelitten

In liebe geschauet

Manches verschuldet

Und wenig verstanden

Danke Dir, ewige Gute!

The life of a philosopher was thorny, but bright. “His philosophical path was difficult. His life path is probably even more difficult. And it seems to me that to her faithful companion Natalia Nikolaevna Ilyina the bitter question: "How long will it take to toil?" he could answer like a frantic Habakkuk: "until his death, mother!"

He was in awe of her wise calm. The young couple lived on pennies earned by translation: neither he nor she wanted to sacrifice the time that they devoted entirely to philosophy. They bound themselves with iron asceticism - everything is strictly calculated, up to how many two-kopeck people can spend a month on a cab; concerts, the theater was banned, and Ilyin was passionately fond of music and the Art Theater ”(Gertsyk E. Memoirs. Paris, 1973, pp. 153-154). Together they translated the work of G.

In 1918-1928. headed the Museum of the City, the collection of which included the collections of the Museum of old Petersburg, a number of municipal museums and exhibitions, as well as nationalized values and works of art. The City Museum was a major scientific and educational center of Petrograd-Leningrad in the 1920s, whose employees were engaged in the study of urban culture in general, including the study and preservation of the cultural and historical heritage of St. Petersburg.

L.A. Ilyin began his independent creative activity in his student years. According to his projects, a number of residential and public buildings were built in St. Petersburg, and four bridges were reconstructed. Architectural design projects for Mikhailovsky, Panteleymonovsky and Vvedensky bridges are on display at the exhibition. Also presented is the project of the first significant construction of the architect - the hospital of Peter the Great on Okhta (1907-1916, together with A.I.Klein and A.V. Rosenberg). The construction of the Okhta hospital town, made in the style of the Petrine Baroque, was carried out in the 1914-1920s.

L.A. Ilyin has repeatedly taken part in architectural competitions. The exposition demonstrates competitive projects of the Workers' Palace at the Narva Gate (1919), the front entrance to Smolny (1923), the House of Soviets in Leningrad (1936, together with V.M. Ivanov, A.I. Lapirov). None of them have been implemented.

Ilyin is one of the founders of the theory and practice of Soviet urban planning. Already in 1911-1917. he completed the planning of the town of the Lysvensky plant in the Urals, the projects of the Ladoga water pipeline settlement and the Liran resort on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus.

In 1923, on the initiative of Ilyin at the Museum of the City in Petrograd, a Commission for the Planning of the City on the Neva was organized. In those years, the City Museum carried out not only a large research, exposition and exhibition work, but was also the only organization that exercised control over the planning and creation of a new urban space in Petrograd-Leningrad. From 1925 to 1938 Ilyin, holding the position of the chief architect of Leningrad, supervised the development of the General Plan for the city's development. Together with P.N. Tvardovsky, he completed the project for the development of the International (Moskovsky) Avenue, which was supposed to become the main thoroughfare of Leningrad (the project was partially implemented in 1935-1941). In 1924-1926. according to the architect's projects, the area adjacent to Stachek Avenue was reconstructed, the architectural design of the arrow of Elagin Island and the square on Birzhevaya Square was created, and in 1927-1932. - the redevelopment of Bolshoy Prospect of Vasilyevsky Island was completed (together with V.V.Danilov and R.F.Katzer). An interesting project of a two-tiered unloading embankment of Robespierre (1924-1925). Many of the urban planning projects created by Ilyin in the 1920s-1930s are presented at the exhibition.

Since 1940 he headed the Institute of Urban Planning of the Academy of Architecture of the USSR, since 1941 he was a corresponding member of the Academy of Architecture of the USSR. During the Great Patriotic War, he supervised the measurement of architectural monuments in Leningrad. He worked on the manuscript of the historical and artistic essay "Walks in Leningrad", dedicated to the classical architecture of the city on the Neva; created a series of illustrations for the future book: city landscapes made from nature and historical compositions. Several sheets of this graphic series, which became the last creative work of the master, are presented at the exhibition. Among them are the drawings "Peter I on the Bank of the Neva", "Meeting of 1836", "Alexander I and the Fortress", "Chernyshev Most", "Winter Canal", "Sink at the House of 12", etc.
