| Summary: | The literary and epistolary heritage of the famous émigré poet Dovid Knout (David Mironovich Fixman, 1900–1955) has already become the subject of publications and research studies more than once. However, a relatively recent discovery in Israel, where Knout lived the last years of his life, where he died and is buried, a significant and still unknown part of his archive (unpublished poems, prose, articles, diary, letters, etc.) gives a new actuality to the study of his life and works. It may be said that partly unknown (or little-known) Knout opens up to specialists and a broad reader. For this publication several letters from the newly-discovered archive – written by Knout himself (to the first and second wives: Sara-Sophia Grabois and Ariadna Skriabin) and to him by different persons (G. Adamovich, D. Glikberg, R. Grinberg and others) – are selected. |
