#TIL what #TESCREAL means. I'm impressed by the explanatory power of conceiving of this cluster of #ideologies as an #interconnected #aggregate which then get used to justify #harm
I feel like a lightbulb went on and that I understand the current state we're all in a bit better now.
Highly recommend starting with the @wikipedia article, which covers the #concept and some of the #criticism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TESCREAL
Thanks go to #Bhante #Sujato (https://sujato.me/) for making me aware of the term.

Encountered this amazing book in the local brocante for zero money: a battered copy of the 1871 15th edition of Camille Flammarion's bestseller on the "Plurality of Inhabited Worlds" from 1862. It is a joy to (selectively) read, partly because it is full of interesting ideas and references to things that have been forgotten 164 years later, partly because the pompous language is both touching as well as hilarious.

Exactly 50 years ago, the Soviet architect and restaurateur Ludwig Heinrich Mavrikievich died. In recent years his name has become popular in the West as "one of the people caught up in Stalin’s purges, he was killed because of his knowledge about aliens; he was officially accused of being a spy for the Vatican, but in 2011, the Russian paper Top Secret claimed that his work at the Vatican was studying manuscripts that indicated ancient alien contact". In this vein, his name became known thanks to a popular documentary TV series "Ancient Aliens", on the History Channel, an episode of "Russia's Secret Files".
The film claimed: "The reason he was accused of being a spy for the Vatican is because in 1920s, as a young student of architecture, he visited the Vatican, where he was given access to the secret library. In that library, he found manuscripts that describe extraterrestrial civilizations and more. Dr. Genrikh Ludvig discovered a number of manuscripts suggesting that there had been historic extraterrestrial contact with ancient civilizations in Egypt, Israel, and Mesopotamia. These manuscripts that talked, for example, about the pyramids and described them as energy machines." The film went on to make a bold attempt to identify Russian cosmism with Ancient astronauts.
All such information about Heinrich Ludwig's connection to Vatican archives and aliens is based on a single Russian-language source - the article "Professor Ludwig's Worlds" in the Russian newspaper Sovershenno Sekretno ("Top Secret"), written by journalist Vladimir Kucharyants, who, as he himself claims, personally knew Ludwig when was a student at the Institute. The article explains the episode in which the Soviet architect was allowed access to the Vatican archives this way:"He, who was studying the Etruscans and deciphering their language, was extremely interested in the documents held in the Vatican library. In his 'Herodotus journey', Rome was one of the key points. At the Vatican he sought permission from the Cardinal, the keeper of the library. As one of his arguments, he cited a terrible Italian swearword that blasphemously commemorated Our Lady... The Cardinal, becoming enraged, wanted to throw him out, but when Ludwig began hastily revealing to him the etymology and esoteric meaning of these words (and it is very different, almost sacred in Etruscans), the Holy Father was so impressed by his knowledge that he not only allowed him into the vault, but also allowed him to photograph the necessary documents."
Apart from this anecdotal episode, the article also claims other contradictory biographical details, such as:"I was brutally beaten at interrogations, demanding confessions of fantastic absurdities: 'While a member of the VKP(b), I was simultaneously a resident of American, German, Polish, Turkish and Vatican counterintelligence for 15 years, trading in the blood of workers and peasants in the USSR. Prepared the bombing of the Nikolaev grain elevator (I have never been to Nikolaev). Organised the largest assassination attempt in the form of explosion of all bread lines of the USSR. He was a chairman of fascist organisation in the Soviet Union...".
I must say a special word about one subtle trick in the methodology of the investigation. After another refusal by me to testify, the investigator opened the door to the corridor of the Lefortovo prison's investigation rooms and nodded to someone.
Nearby a woman was being brutally beaten.
-Do you recognise it? - The investigator gloated.
I grew wary, lost in anguished speculation.
- You scoundrel, bastard, fascist! You don't pity your own wife! And we're only beating her because of you...
I've never heard my wife scream like that before! When the woman fell unconscious, then /she/ let out a moan, I shouted:
- Stop it! I'll sign everything, just don't hit my wife.
At the dictation of the investigator I signed slanderous testimony against myself...".
Later he found out: it wasn't his wife who was tortured. His wife, a Party worker, was still living happily in their big, cosy flat on Tverskaya street.
She had written a denunciation about her husband."
In this case, according to Kucharyants, this is a fragment of the manuscript, which the professor's widow herself provided to the journalist. Another source, A.V. Trubetskoy's memoirs "Paths undiscovered", mentions another episode relating to the architect Ludwig:"There was a rather famous architect, Heinrich Ludwig, an elderly, grey-haired man with bushy eyebrows (the kind of man who usually smokes a pipe when he is outside). I knew him well. Ludwig told me that he had entered a design competition for the Palace of the Soviets, and his design had been exhibited and published. In the camp Ludwig had a hernia operation and had his navel cut out. The operated one later joked that only Adam, as not being born by a woman, did not have a belly button."
Some more reliable sources report that before the crackdown, Ludwig held the following positions: "head of the architectural workshops of the People's Commissariat of Health (1934-1935) and the People's Commissariat of Light Industry (1935-1937) of the USSR, professor at the MIIT, MISI, MVTU, the Military Engineering Academy, director of the MArhI (1936-1937), head of restoration work in the Kremlin, in the Ostankino and Arkhangelskoye estates, the Church of St Basil the Blessed, the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. He has carried out over 200 major projects."
He is considered to be one of the most active figures of the Russian architectural avant-garde. In the words of art historian Selim Omarovich Khan-Magomedov, he "synthesised an artist and an engineer". It is said that he travelled to Turkey at the personal invitation of Ataturk, the founder of the Turkish nation, who decided to change the face of Ankara, and met with him repeatedly. Ludwig created the design for a Soviet embassy in Turkey, the year after the young Republic of Turkey was founded. He was also the author of competition designs for the monument to Christopher Columbus in Santo Domingo and the Palace of the Soviets in Moscow.
Artist Vyacheslav Lenkov made this statement in the newspaper Russky Vestnik about the unrealised project of the Palace of the Soviets:"When Stalin finally came to power before the war, he summoned a specialist and told him to scientifically substantiate that this enormous Palace on the site of the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour was technically impossible to build. It was Professor Ludwig Heinrich Mavrikievich. He was later reminded of this memo and exiled to Siberia for his German origin, and in the camp his bones were crushed - as if they had been made into a crucifix. Then he could hardly walk, but he came back and taught at our place."
Meanwhile, in the Volga Correctional Labour Camp, Ludwig worked as an architect in the technical department of the Volgostroy NKVD. Later, he was head of construction works, technologist at plant No.1 of the MGB in Yaroslavl; chief architect of the camp in the town of Spassk in the Karaganda region. It may be noted that he worked as an architect in Rybinsk, during the construction of the Rybinsk hydroelectric power station during the flooding of the ancient trade and religious centre, the town of Mologa.
The following year after Stalin's death Heinrich Ludwig was released from the camps (having been convicted under Article 58-6-1 of the Criminal Code of the RSFSR, espionage) and rehabilitated a couple of years later. After the exile he taught, was a corresponding member of the USSR Academy of Construction and Architecture, was the editor of the journals "Architecture in the USSR" and "Architecture Abroad", and was an honorary member of the Institute of Archaeology in Illinois (USA).
It is difficult to determine what is reliable information among the many biographical fragments from the life of Heinrich Ludwig and what is not: whether he was a talented architect, innocently condemned by the Soviet system for espionage, or whether he was a "great architect" of Soviet and international secret societies, with a fabricated and mythologized biography, of the rank of Nikolai Alexandrovich Morozov (the forefather and architect of the New Chronology theory, the venerable master of the Zarya Peterburga Lodge). In any case, Ludwig was connected with space not only by hypothetical ancient aliens from "Sovershenno Sekretno" newspaper, but also by close cooperation with Alexander Chizhevsky, a representative of Russian cosmism, who during his lifetime was removed from several leading positions for falsification of scientific research results. It was Ludwig who wrote the first review of one of Chizhevsky's last manuscripts, "On the Shore of the Universe - Memories of K.E. Tsiolkovsky", a fragment of which was put on the cover of the posthumous edition."Nowhere is the personality of K.E. Tsiolkovsky, as a man, so clearly and distinctly portrayed as in the book under consideration... In the literature about K.E. Tsiolkovsky there is nothing more powerful... The work of Professor A.L. Chizhevsky, an eyewitness and friend of the genius scientist, should be called a classic...
Professor G.M. Ludwig"

Ровно 50 лет назад умер Людвиг Генрих Маврикиевич советский архитектор и ресторатор. В последние годы его имя стало популярно на Западе, как "одного из людей, попавших под сталинские чистки, он был убит из-за своих знаний об инопланетянах; официально его обвиняли в том, что он был шпионом Ватикана, но в 2011 году российская газета "Совершенно секретно" утверждала, что его работа в Ватикане заключалась в изучении рукописей, которые указывали на древние контакты с пришельцами". В таком ключе его имя стало известно благодаря популярному документальному телесериалу "Древние пришельцы", на канале История (History Channel), эпизоду "Русские секретные материалы".
В фильме утверждалось: "Причина, по которой его обвинили в том, что он был шпионом Ватикана, заключается в том, что в 1920-х годах, будучи молодым студентом архитектурного факультета, он посетил Ватикан, где ему был предоставлен доступ в секретную библиотеку. В этой библиотеке он нашел манускрипты с описанием внеземных цивилизаций и многое другое. Доктор Генрих Людвиг обнаружил ряд рукописей, свидетельствующих о том, что существовали исторические внеземные контакты с древними цивилизациями Египта, Израиля и Месопотамии. В этих рукописях говорилось, например, о пирамидах и описывалось, что они являются энергетическими машинами". Далее в этом фильме следовала смелая попытка отождествления русского космизма с палеоконтактом.
Все подобные сведения о связи Генриха Людвига с ватиканскими архивами и инопланетянами строятся на единственном русскоязычном источнике – статье "Миры профессора Людвига" в российской газете "Совершенно секретно", написанной журналистом Владимиром Кючарьянцем, как им самим заявляется, лично знавшим Людвига, будучи его учеником в институте. В это статье так объясняется эпизод с допуском советского архитектора к ватиканским архивам:"Его, занимавшегося этрусками и расшифровкой их языка, чрезвычайно интересовали документы, хранящиеся в библиотеке Ватикана. В его «пути Геродота» Рим был одним из ключевых пунктов. В Ватикане он обратился за разрешением к кардиналу – хранителю библиотеки. В качестве одного из аргументов он привёл страшное итальянское ругательство, кощунственно поминавшее Богоматерь… Кардинал, придя в ярость, хотел его выгнать, но, когда Людвиг стал торопливо раскрывать ему этимологию и эзотерический смысл этих слов (а он у этрусков совсем иной, чуть ли не сакральный), святой отец был настолько поражен его знаниями, что не только пустил его в хранилище, но и позволил фотографировать нужные документы."
Помимо этого анекдотичного эпизода, в статье также заявляются и другие противоречивые биографические данные, например:"На допросах меня жестоко избивали, требуя признания фантастических нелепиц: «Будучи членом ВКП(б), одновременно 15 лет являлся резидентом американской, германской, польской, турецкой и ватиканской контрразведок, торговал кровью рабочих и крестьян СССР. Готовил взрыв Николаевского элеватора (я в Николаеве никогда не был). Организовал крупнейшее покушение в виде взрыва всех хлебных магистралей СССР. Являлся председателем фашистской организации в Советском Союзе…»
Об одном изощрённом приёме в методике ведения следствия обязан сказать особо. После очередного моего отказа давать показания следователь открыл дверь в коридор следственных кабинетов Лефортовской тюрьмы, кому-то кивнул.
Рядом зверски избивали женщину.
–Узнаешь? – злорадствовал следователь.
Я насторожился, теряясь в мучительных догадках.
– Ах ты, подлец, гадина, фашист! Родную жену не жалеешь! А ведь мы ее только из-за тебя избиваем…
Я никогда раньше не слышал таких криков моей жены! Когда женщина умолкла, потеряв сознание, затем /снова/ издала стон, я закричал:
– Прекратите! Я все подпишу, только не бейте мою жену.
Под диктовку следователя я подписал против себя клеветнические показания…»
Потом он узнал: пытали вовсе не жену. Его супруга, партработник, по-прежнему благополучно жила в их уютной, просторной квартире на Тверской.
Написав на мужа донос."
При этом, со слов Кючарьянца, это фрагмент рукописи, которую сама вдова профессора журналисту и предоставила. В другом источнике, воспоминаниях "Пути неисповедимы" А.В. Трубецкого, упоминается другой эпизод, связанный с архитектором Людвигом:"В лагере находился довольно известный архитектор Генрих Маврикиевич Людвиг, уже пожилой, седой крепыш с густыми бровями (на воле такие люди обычно курят трубки). Я был с ним хорошо знаком. Людвиг рассказывал, что участвовал в конкурсе проектов Дворца Советов, и его проект выставлялся и публиковался. В лагере Людвигу оперировали грыжу, вырезав при этом пупок. Оперированный потом шутил, что только у Адама, как не рожденного женщиной, не было пупка."
Некоторые более достоверные источники сообщают, что до репрессий Людвиг занимал следующие должности: "начальник архитектурных мастерских Наркомата здравоохранения (1934-1935) и Наркомата лёгкой промышленности (1935-1937) СССР, профессор МИИТа, МИСИ, МВТУ, Военно-инженерной академии, директор МАрхИ (1936-1937), руководитель реставрационных работ в Кремле, в усадьбах Останкино и Архангельское, храма Василия Блаженного, Троице-Сергиевой лавры. Им выполнено более 200 крупных проектов."
Его считают одним из самых активных деятелей русского архитектурного авангарда. По выражению искусствоведа Селима Омаровича Хан-Магомедова, он "синтезировал в себе художника и инженера". Утверждается, что он ездил в Турцию по личному приглашению Ататюрка, основоположника турецкой нации, решившего изменить облик Анкары, неоднократно встречался с ним. Людвиг создал проект советского посольства в Турции, на следующий год после основания молодой Турецкой Республики. Также он был автором конкурсных проектов памятника Христофору Колумбу в Санто-Доминго и Дворца Советов в Москве.
Художник Вячеслав Леньков сделал такое заявление в газете "Русский Вестник" по поводу нереализованного проекта Дворца Советов:"Когда Сталин окончательно пришел к власти перед войной, он вызвал к себе специалиста и велел научно обосновать, что этот громадный Дворец на месте Храма Христа Спасителя построить технически невозможно. Это был профессор Людвиг Генрих Маврикиевич. Ему потом припомнили эту докладную записку и за немецкое происхождение сослали в Сибирь, в лагере ему раздробили кости – как сделали распятие. Потом он с трудом ходил, но вернулся и преподавал у нас."
При этом, в Волжском исправительно-трудовом лагере Людвиг работал по специальности – архитектором технического отдела Волгостроя НКВД. Позже, начальником строительных работ, технологом завода № 1 МГБ в Ярославле; главным архитектором лагстроя в городе Спасске Карагандинской области. Можно отметить, что архитектором он работал в Рыбинске, при строительстве Рыбинской ГЭС во время затопления древнего торгового и религиозного центра, города Молога.
На следующий год после смерти Сталина, Генрих Людвиг был освобожден из лагерей (будучи осужденным по статье 58-6-1 УК РСФСР, шпионаж), через пару лет реабилитирован. После лагерей занимался преподавательской деятельностью, был членом-корреспондентом Академии строительства и архитектуры СССР, редактором журналов "Архитектура в СССР" и "Архитектура за рубежом", почетным членом Института археологии в Иллинойсе (США).
Сложно определить, что является достоверной информацией среди множества биографических фрагментов из жизни Генриха Людвига, а что — нет: был ли он талантливым архитектором, невинно осуждённым советской системой за шпионаж, или же был "великим архитектором" советских и международных тайных обществ, со сфабрикованной и мифологизированной биографией, ранга Николая Александровича Морозова (прародителя и архитектора теории "Новой Хронологии", досточтимого мастера ложи "Заря Петербурга"). В любом случае, с космосом Людвига связывали не только гипотетические древние инопланетяне из газеты "Совершенно секретно", но и тесное сотрудничество с Александром Чижевским, представителем русского космизма, при жизни снятого с ряда руководящих должностей за фальсификацию результатов научных исследований. Именно Людвиг написал первую рецензию к одной из последних рукописей Чижевского, "На берегу вселенной - Воспоминания о К.Э. Циолковском", фрагмент которой был вынесен на обложку посмертного издания."Нигде личность К. Э. Циолковского, как человека, не изображена так ясно и отчетливо, как в рассматриваемой книге... В литературе о К. Э. Циолковском ничего более сильного вообще не существует... Труд профессора А. Л. Чижевского, очевидца и друга гениального ученого, следует назвать классическим..."

Another work from the cover of the same book. I cannot see any artist information, but I think it is safe to assume it was painted K.V. Kukulieva & B.N. Kukuliev.

One more space themed post or so, then on to socialist realism for a change.
USSR Cosmonauts, K.V. Kukulieva & B.N. Kukuliev, 1980
From what I can tell, this was made as part of a series of miniature paintings to honor Yuri #Gagarin and the cosmonauts. The artists were a wife and husband duo who were from Palekh, a town known for their folk art and miniature paintings in this style.
Here is a pdf of the entire book: https://partidopirata.com.ar/~unperson/gagarin.pdf

For all we know theirs is the higher plane of existence and our destiny is to join with them rather than vice versa, but it is one of the freakier and most cosmist possibilities.
