Letter to Vyacheslav Karpinsky, December 20, 1916
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1971, Moscow, Volume 36, page 416.
Dear Comrades,
I have to give a lecture here on the Ninth of January, 1905, but I have no material.[1] Please help me to find:
1) Mysl for 1910 (?)–1911
V. Ilyin’s articles on strikes in Russia.[2]
2) Diskussionny Listok of the CO of the RSDLP for 1910–1911 (?), my article on revolution and counterrevolution in Russia, with a summary of strike statistics.[3]
3) Trotzky: Russland in der Revolution.
4) Gorn, Mech, Cherevanin and others,
collections (legal) for 1906–07 (?). The social movement in Russia, or something like that. One issue about the peasantry.[4]
(Agrarian question)
5) Maslov, Vol. II. The peasant movement in 1905–06.[5]
6) The Social Movement in Russia. The five-volume collection of Potresov and Co.
7) Moscow in 1905[6]
and other 1905–06 pamphlets. Anything you have. Please send what you have, or mark off on this note what there is and what can be sent over.
Regards,
Yours,
Lenin
P.S. I sent Guilbeaux my theses on work among the Left in the Swiss Social-Democratic Party, and asked him to send them on to you.[7] Pass them on also to Noah and Stepko.
