Abstract

From the inexhaustible flow of books, we have selected a few publications, which, in our opinion, are of undeniable value. First of all our attention attracted publishing projects of Svetlana Yakovlevna Levit. In this case, we selected the books devoted to history. From the legacy of Aron Yakovlevich Gurevich articles from two collections was taken: “History is a Never-ending Dispute” and “Medieval and Scandinavian Studies”. Works of famous medievalist A.J. Gurevich are published not for the first time. The author analyzes the book by A.M. Shishkov on the history of the intellectual culture of the middle Ages “On the Shoulders of Giants. Essays on the Intellectual Culture of the Western middle Ages (XIII–XIV centuries)”.Readers undoubtedly know that the Institute for scientific information on social Sciences (INION) is now working in difficult conditions. After a fire, it has become difficult to organize a systematic and purposeful activity in the building of the Institute. More surprising that the publishing program of S.Y. Levit continues, and its mastermind successfully implements a variety of plans to release a rarest literature.
