Abstract

This chapter gives an idea of the ideological atmosphere in the Soviet academic world of the early 1930s. The first part of the text is based on a note written in violet ink and in pencil on seven notebook pages fastened together by a paperclip. Part of the pages have been lost. The manuscript documents, among other things, Vygotsky’s presentation of the content of his planned book, Thinking and speech, to a small committee and shows that the initial plan was broader and included a chapter about the freedom of will.
