I would appreciate a bit of help on the publication history of Kornei
Chukovskii's caustic article "Lidiia Charskaia," which was first
published in 1912, and later reprinted as an appendix to some editions
of his life work, _Ot dvukh do piati_ (published in 21 editions,
1928-1970).
I've been making a survey of which editions of this work include, and
which exclude, the "Charskaia" article. If any of you have access to
editions of _Ot dvukh do piati_ (especially from the 1930s and 1940s)
which I haven't seen (see below), I would appreciate your taking a
look, and sending me (off-list) brief bibliographical information and
whether or not the Charskaia article appears.
Thanks in advance for helping me fill in the gaps.
These are the editions I've already seen:
1st (_Malen'kie deti_, 1928) (no "Charskaia")
2nd (_Malen'kie deti_, 1929) (no "Charskaia")
3rd (1933) (no "Charskaia")
5th (1935) (includes "Charskaia")
6th (1936) (includes "Charskaia")
13th (1958) (no "Charskaia")
17th (1963) (no "Charskaia")
21st (1970) (no "Charskaia")
Posthumous editions of Chukovskii, e.g. 1990 ("v 2-x tomax") tend to
include "Charskaia")
