Description
You would want to share this work for several reasons. First, it is simply good literature. Second, it is a unique historical document.
Third, it gives you the chance to meet an astonishing person.
In the archive of Lyubov Moiseyevna Gorovits-Vlasova—more precisely, in the only surviving volume from her personal handwritten archive—this text is listed simply as number 182.
We started calling it by its genre: "Notes of a Zemstvo Doctor." This genre is quite broad and gave many authors a path into literature. Lyubov Moiseyevna chose science and achieved outstanding success in it, leaving literature for "internal use."
True, among her hundred scientific and educational works, "Bacteriade"—a textbook of microbiology in verse—will be the one that becomes known only a quarter of a century later, when she becomes a famous scholar and professor.
And now it is 1902. A young woman who has just finished the Paris Medical School and rejected Mechnikov’s offer to stay and work at the Pasteur Institute returns to her homeland and receives her first independent position—a zemstvo doctor in the town of Kirillov, then in Novgorod Governorate, now in the Vologda Region.
The foreword is read by Sergey Perovsky.
