Souvarine, De Mohrenschilt and Levine

[Peter Fokes]

The Boris Souvarine papers contain correspondence with colleagues and
friends (very little from family) ....

George De Mohrenschildt's brother Dimitri Sergius corresponded with
Boris Souvarine, the self-educated pioneering Sovietologist, who wrote
the first biography of Joseph Stalin, published in 1935. For the next
sixty years he was a leading Sovietologist and anti-communist, founder
of L'Institut d'Histoire Sociale (Paris), as well as an author,
editor, historian, journalist and publisher.

Letters:

(892a) Mohrenschildt, Dimitri Sergius von, 1902-16 letters to Boris
Souvarine; 1942-1973 and [n.d.].

Another correspondent of Boris was Isaac Don Levine.

(763) Levine, Isaac Don, 1892-4 letters to Boris Souvarine; 1947-1956.
See also nos.(2232)and (2716).

(2232) Levine, Issac Don, 1892-1 letter to Boris Souvarine; 1956.

(2716) Levine, Isaac Don, 1892-1 letter to Boris Souvarine; 1944

From HSCA:

"De Mohrenschildt testified that his brother Dimitri remained a
"ferocious anti-Communist."(16) he served in the Czarist Russian
Imperial Navy.(17) After the Russian revolution, Dimitri von
Mohrenschildt joined anti-Communist groups and was jailed by the
Communists and sentenced to death.(18) He was released from jail in a
prisoner exchange with the help of a Polish Catholic bishop.(19)
Dimitri von Mohrenschildt emigrated to the United States in August
1920."

I wonder if Levine knew Boris was acquainted with Dimitri De
Mohrenschildt, George's brother.

Small world.
