 Greetings for you all, Psyhistorik,

After our conversation about Soviet decrees, pedology, psychology and so on, I was motivated to try understand better Vygotsky's professional trajectory, and I think to begin finding actual names of the institutions in that he worked, in order to try later search more about the nature of the own institutions in that historical-cultural context. I began with data from Vigodskaia and Lifanova about Gomel's period since 1919 - with city's liberation from German occupation, and establishment of Soviet power... And they made a list with 11 main places in that Vygotsky worked (see below). But, unhappily, I have only the English version of that work, then I though if somebody here could please help me to know, at least, the Russian names of it. Then I will try to find something in the internet sources... If not, there is no problem too. In future I must order the Russian: Лев Семенович Выготский: Жизнь. Деятельность. Штрихи к портрету. But for some months I will have not resources to do this. 

For Vigodskaia and Lifanova "His (Vygotsky's) service record in the public schools is worthy of note:

1. First Soviet worker's school - Russian language an literature.
2. Teachers' college - logic and psychology (general, child, educational, and experimental)
3. The Vocational School for Printers (Russian language and literature).
4. The Vocational School for Steel and Metalworkers (Russian language and literature).
5. Evening courses in the Provincial Political Educational School - Russian language and literature.
6. Courses in Soviet upbring * (for preschool teachers) - logic and psychology.
7. Summer courses in retraining teachers * - logic and psychology
8. Worker's courses *- Russian language and literature.
9. Courses for rural cultural workers * - aesthetics.
10. Public conservatory - aesthetics, the theory of art, introduction to philosophy.
11. Organizer of a Department o Psycholgogy, ** and pemanent lecturer and consulant on questions of psychology."

(Vygodskaia and Lifanova, 1999 - Journal of Russian and East European Psychology - p.37)

* Here I don't know yet were are these courses, in what institution.
** And here too, there was this department but to what it was subordinated?

And even:

(12) "head of the theater subsection of the Gomel Department of Public Education (1919-1921)" (p. 38)
and
(13) "head of the art section of the Provincial Political Education Department" (p. 38)


Thank you.
Большое спасибо.

Some info re your question, but the list is far from complete, I believe (sorry, this is copy-paste from a pretty rough copy of the text):

[p. 133]
Мы перечислим ряд учебных заведений, аудитории которых заполнялись
до отказа, когда там читал лекции (с 1924 по 1926 г. — ассистент,
с 1926 по 1931 г. — доцент, с 1931 г. — профессор) Лев Семенович
Выготский: 1-й МГУ (два факультета: физико-математический и факультет
общественных наук)239; П-й МГУ (отделение психологии, педологии и
дефектологии педагогического факультета240 — ныне это Московский государственный
педагогический университет); Академия коммунистического
воспитания им. Н.К. Крупской (АКВ)241; Высшие научно-педагогические
курсы242; Институт педологии и дефектологии243; Институт охраны
здоровья детей и подростков244; П-й Московский медицинский
[p. 134]
институт245; Московская консерватория, педагогический факультет-'4'1:
Индустриально-педагогический институт имени К.Либкнехта247; Ленинградский
педагогический институт им. А.И.Герцена24*; Институт подготовки
кадров Наркомздрава Украины24'', Харьковский психоневрологический
институт250 и др.
Свои исследования Лев Семенович проводил в ряде научных учреждений,
таких, как Институт экспериментальной психологии, Экспериментальный
дефектологический институт, Государственный институт научной
педагогики, психологическая лаборатория при II МГУ, клиника нервных болезней,
лаборатория экспериментального искусствознания (ГАИС) и др.
В ряде вузов и научных учреждений Лев Семенович заведовал лабораториями,
отделами, кафедрами. В различных архивах нам удалось отыскать
интересные материалы о выступлениях Л.С. Выготского на студенческих
конференциях25', выступления на кафедре252, тематику руководимых Львом
Семеновичем дипломных работ (например, «Развитие запоминания у детей
школьного возраста», «Экспериментальные исследования образования
понятий» и др.)253.
Сохранилось расписание занятий на дефектологическом отделении
педагогического факультета П-го МГУ, из которого следует, что Л.С. Выготский
вел специальный семинар на отделениях олигофрено-, сурдо-
и тифлопедагогики254 (программа спецкурса хранится в Архиве Московской
области).

Looks correct. FYI, the numbers after the names of the institutions are the references to footnotes in Vygodskaya & Lifanova, 1996 original book, -- not sure they preserved them in English translation in JREEEP.

Also, you might want to have a look at Vygotsky's own "scientific autobiography". We have it, for instance, here (http://community.livejournal.com/psyhistorik/34909.html)...

OK. This all has been cool so far but it does not make much sense any more... Why? Just because, it's unhistorical: we do not need just the list, but what we need is a sequence. That is, where and during what years he was working. Thus, --

First, have a look at a fragment of yet another autobio by LSV (clickable):

Image (http://ikprao.ru/history/vigotsky/photo_012a.htm)

Second. Recently, I made some changes in the Russian wikipedia article on Vygotsky (http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%92%D1%8B%D0%B3%D0%BE%D1%82%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B9,_%D0%9B%D0%B5%D0%B2_%D0%A1%D0%B5%D0%BC%D1%91%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87), specifically, the initial part, i.e. the one on Vygotsky's jobs. Pls, feel free to have a look. Let's discuss it, if you feel like that.
