He was educated in the Lazarevskii institut vostochnykh iazykov, the Aleksandrovskoe voennoe uchilishche, the Ofitserskaia elektrotekhnicheskaia shkola, and the History and Philology Department of the Imperatorskii Novorossiiskii universitet. During World War I, Abdank-Kossovskii, who served as an engineer officer, received several medals for his service, including the St. George Cross and the Order of St. Anna. He then enlisted in the White Army; after the end of the Civil War he was evacuated to Tunis. In the early 1920s, he arrived in France, where he became active in Russian émigré monarchist organizations. Sharing the fate of numerous émigrés unable to find employment in their profession, Abdank-Kossovskii found work in factories and as a cab driver in Paris. Being interested in journalism, Abdank-Kossovskii frequently contributed to Vozrozhdenie and other Russian émigré newspapers and was thus able to indulge his passion for Russian history and the fate of the Russian diaspora. He began collecting materials on the lives of Russian émigrés on different continents and established an exhibit entitled “Zarubezhnaia Rus’,” which chronicled the fate of Russians abroad from 1916 to 1961. Vladimir Konkordovich Abdank-Kossovskii died on April 19, 1962, in Grasse, France. 1885 June Born, Vitebsk Guberniia, Russia 16 1921 Author, Sila i chelovek, Sovremennaia nemetskaia mysl': sbornik statei 1922 Arrived in Paris, France, from Tunis, Tunisia 1922-1962 Journalist in the Russian émigré press 1962 April Died, Grasse, France 19 Scope and Content of Collection These papers consist primarily of materials collected by Vladimir Konkordovich Abdank-Kossovskii for the exhibit "Zarubezhnaia Rus'," which chronicled the fate and life of Russian émigrés beginning in 1916 up to 1961. Vladimir Konkordovich Abdank-Kossovskii was a graduate of the Lazarevskii institut vostochnykh iazykov, the Aleksandrovskoe voennoe uchilishche, the Ofitserskaia elektrotekhnicheskaia shkola, and the Istoriko-filologichskii fakul'tet Novorossiiskii University.

K. Abdank-Kossovskii himself, and pasted to album sheets. These materials were exhibited by Abdank-Kossovskii regularly in Paris. The subject file of the Zarubezhnaia Rus' File includes materials prepared by Abdank-Kossovskii for inclusion in the "Zarubezhnaia Rus'" exhibit, but categorized only by subject and not pasted for exhibit.

Conventionalized signs of affluence, models of beauty, "educational" articles on topics ranging from the history and significance of ties ot correct behavior at a first-class estaurr ant filled the pages of magazines intended to provide an accelerated course in etiquette, appearance, and appurtenances for Russia's newly wealthy.

  • HOME, AGAIN by LINDA C. HAMILTON a Thesis Submitted To
    HOME, AGAIN By LINDA C. HAMILTON A thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Camden Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Fine Arts Graduate Program in Creative Writing under the direction of Lauren Grodstein and approved by __________________________________ Lauren Grodstein, Program Director Camden, New Jersey October, 2013 i THESIS ABSTRACT HOME, AGAIN By LINDA C. HAMILTON Thesis Director: Lauren Grodstein Home, Again is a collection of linked essays that is part memoir and part exploration of the idea of what “home” is and what it becomes over the course of one’s life. The first essay, “I’m a Dracuteer,” introduces the reader to a particular time and place, Dracut, Massachusetts, in the 1950s and 1960s. This is the small, parochial town with a surprisingly vivid history where the narrator grew up and lived until she left for college. This essay sets the stage for the rest of the book, providing a geography to the narrator’s upbringing and early home, while also establishing a link among the essays that follow. Other essays in the collection deal with critical events and people in the narrator’s life: deaths and burials; mother, father, brothers, grandparents, aunts and uncles, husbands, friends and coworkers; travels, jobs and moves. All of these things have caused the narrator to continually create new home throughout her life. In the final essay, “Home, Again,” the narrator comes to realize that, although she has physically and mentally left her Dracut home many years ago, some profound sense of home will always remain in that place and linger in her heart.
