	Zamyatin1
		Zamyatin’s name ought to be as well known as the impacts of his writing, as well known as the names Orwell and Huxley.
		Zamyatin's young life was precisely that which one would imagine for a great writer, one of solitude and literature.
		Zamyatin's doctrine of "If there were no heretics, one would have to invent them" (Holthusen 1972, 97) brought forth in his writing much exploration and originality as he worked towards aiding the natural process of progress.

	Yevgeny Zamyatin
		Yevgeny Ivanovich Zamyatin was born in the provincial town of Lebedian, some two hundred miles south of Moscow.
		Zamyatin's contribution as one of the libretists to Dmitry Shostakovich's satirical opera The Nose (1927-8), based on Gogol's story, is unclear; other writers were Georgy Yonin, Alexander Preiss, and the composer himself.
		Zamyatin's early stories satirized the backwardness of the provincial Russia, and later his target was the Communist system.

	Patrick Parrinder- Imagining the Future: Zamyatin and Wells
		The second is that Zamyatin was himself a notably original modernist writer, and not merely the precursor of Huxley and Orwell.
		Zamyatin was enough of a determinist to feel that Wells's expression of the twentieth-century environment alone constituted an essential modernity.
		Zamyatin does not seem to have doubted that science fiction could be a major literary genre; Wells wrote his masterpieces in the conviction that it could not.

	We - Utter and Complete Control
		Yevgeny's first noticeable difference in his novel is that it is actually recordings or notes compiled into a collection titled We, written by D-503.
		D-503's tale of the dystopian society he lives in is a great novel by Yevgeny Zamyatin who uses a different approach to the typical writing style using comparisons and also foreshadowing the horrid events of an utter and complete controlling government.
		Yevgeny Zamyatin was the true creator of the dystopian genre, and masterful writer.

	Music under Soviet rule: Goldstein hoax
		New material on Zamyatin continues to be published and among documents recently made available in English by Gary Kern[2] is testimony which directly contradicts Goldstein's assertions on this point.
		For example, Goldstein's claim that Shostakovich had read 'several' of Zamyatin's books by the time of their alleged first meeting in 1924 is unsupported by the Glivenko letters, the evidence of which suggests that the composer's interest in contemporary literature dates at the earliest from 1925.
		As for how much Shostakovich knew about Zamyatin's ideas during their collaboration on The Nose, we may safely assume that he was aware of the existence of We and of its contents - and that he was therefore 'collaborating' with a man both the Party and the Proletkult regarded as a 'betrayer of the revolution'.

	A Soviet Heretic; On Literature and Art (Yevgeny Zamyatin, Leon Trotsky)
		Though he seems to have become almost trendy in recent years, Zamyatin is not as well known as later Soviet dissidents such as Solzhenitsyn, perhaps because he never renounced his Marxism and because his opposition to Stalinism was artistic rather than political (and perhaps because his greatest work was a science fiction novel).
		Zamyatin's revolutionary credentials were impeccable (he had joined the Bolsheviks before 1905) and it would have been easy for him to have toed the party line and accepted the rewards; instead he was lucky to be allowed to go into exile.
		Zamyatin's criticism is forthright: mostly he is critical but constructive, but he is completely scathing when he thinks it is warranted, producing some wonderfully acerbic passages.

	Zamyatin and Rand
		Thus, whereas Zamyatin sees a continuing dialectic or spiral of historical progression that involves a mixing of alternatives (neither of which may be fully appealing), Rand sees a need for one alternative to overcome its opposite, thus cleansing the world of its sins in an almost apocalyptic fashion.
		She was adamantly opposed to the view Zamyatin espouses that "all truths are erroneous", for she held that certainty, far from being what Nietzsche called a "crutch", is a veritable necessity of human knowledge (Peikoff 1991, 171-81).
		In specifiable contexts, Zamyatin was quite comfortable talking about the value and importance of truth, and he thought that "truth is the first thing that present-day literature lacks; the writer has drowned himself in lies, he is too accustomed to speak prudently, with a careful look over his shoulder" (Zamyatin 1970, 113).

	Digital Think Tank :: Blog
		In Yevgeny Zamyatin’s We, reason is presented as a pseudo-religion, a way to explain away all the uncertainties of life and create a mode of thinking in which answers are given, not derived.
		Zamyatin never really answers the question as to whether the technological and logical is a means of producing a coherent society.
		It seems Zamyatin would lean toward the latter, arguing that extreme reliance on technology as a source of meaning and logical ordering can lead to a society in which people have lost all sense of what it means to be alive and have a useful existence.

	Zamyatin, WE
		The fiction writer, dramatist, critic, editor and translator Evgenii (pronounced "Yevgeny") Zamyatin was born in 1884 in the Russian provincial town of Lebedyan and grew up in provincial central Russia.
		One important consequence of Zamyatin's most important educational activity after the Revolution was the influence of his lectures on a group of younger writers who named themselves the Serapion Brothers, after E. Hoffman's hermit Serapion, and who emphasized free fantasy and humaneness in literature as well as a focus on literary craftsmanship shared with Zamyatin.
		Zamyatin is a particularly effective practitioner of Modernist color symbolism: keep an eye out for examples here (...such as colors that associate I-330 with a bee: why would that be a suitable association?).

	Long Before 1984 There Was We
		Zamyatin (1884-1937) had the honor, if it could be called that, of being exiled by both the tsarist and the Stalinist regimes.
		Zamyatin returned to Russia, from England where he had been supervising the construction of icebreakers at a shipyard, with the coming of the October Revolution, which he supported wholeheartedly.
		The problem was that Zamyatin was never able to recognize that while he supported the principles and precepts of the revolution, criticizing the policies of Lenin's government was not acceptable, much less that of his successor Stalin, to put it mildly.

		Yevgeny Zamyatin (1884 - 1937) was one of the few writers to oppose the tide of conformity that swept over Russian literature in the years after the Russian Revolution.
		Finding his writings banned and himself increasingly isolated throughout the 1920s, he sought and gained permission from Stalin himself to leave the Soviet Union in 1931, and died in Paris in 1937.
		Here at the Monadnock Review we recognize Zamyatin for the power of his craft, for his celebration of the sanctity of the individual, and for his emphasis on the crucial importance of artistic freedom.

		Yevgeny Zamyatin (1884-1937) wrote "We" in 1920, in an URSS that was just beginning to show its true nature.
		Yevgeny Zamyatin, translator Clarence Brown tells us, had an enormous influence on George Orwell's seminal dystopian novel "1984." "We," written in 1924 as the turmoil of the Bolshevik revolution was in its final stages, definitely shares several similarities with Orwell's bleak novel.
		Zamyatin's "We" is not an easy book to read and understand, but it is an essential work that I should have read years ago instead of allowing it to languish on my bookshelf.

		Zamyatin, a disillusioned Bolshevik, completed his novel around 1920, but couldn’t get it published in the Russian market due to censorship from Lenin and later, Stalin.
		Rather than spelling out his philosophies to you, Zamyatin is more prone to present the reader with complex problems, and allow them to come to their own conclusions.
		Even Zamyatin’s decision to write the novel as a series of diary entries helps us understand the torment in D-503’s mind as he tries to grasp the new world I-330 introduces him to.

		It was the little known Bolshevik writer Yevgeny Zamyatin who for all practical purposes invented the literary genre called distopia with the novel We published in 1920.
		Zamyatin was a dedicated communist prior to the Russian revolution.
		He quickly became disillusioned after the Bolsheviks took power and wrote the novel We about a society where there is no privacy and all facets of people's lives are controlled by the government 24 hours a day, total conformity is required and demanded from everyone, even sex is rationed by coupons.

		It was written in response to the author's personal experiences with the Russian revolutions of 1905 and 1917, his life in the Newcastle suburb of Jesmond and work in the Tyne shipyards at nearby Wallsend during the First World War.
		Zamyatin was very critical of communism in Russia and his work was repeatedly banned.
		Zamyatin's literary position deteriorated throughout the 1920s, and he was eventually allowed to emigrate to Paris in 1931, probably after the intercession of Maxim Gorky.

		That difficulty, however, doesn't betray Zamyatin's weakness as an author but rather his sensitivity to the character he created.
		Impeccable math and science (Zamyatin was a Naval architect), religious imagery, jokes (that's right), and of course, scathing political prophecy are all present in this melting pot.
		However, it's got some interesting concepts like the, "Integral" a giant ship the builders make so their society can use it to explore new worlds and colonize distant lands; and everything in their society is constructed from glass so everyone sees all with the exception of sexual intercourse which is conducted behind a curtain.

	The One State and Its Discontents
		Yevgeny I. Zamyatin (1884-1937) had training and experience as a naval architect and hence was not ignorant of mathematics.
		In reading this dialog, I was gratified to learn that Zamyatin agrees with me in deploring apocalyptic visions: the last struggle, the end of days, the final word, the TOEs (Theories of Everything).
		Yevgeny Zamyatin's message that one had better watch the mind set of mathematics as it plays out in social policy is as incisive today as it was when he wrote the book.

		It is a fantastic piece of literature, and this must have been realized by Orwell when he stole most of Zamyatin's ideas.
		What makes We remarkable and a landmark in Russian literature, or world literature for that matter, is that Zamyatin managed to predict virtually every political/social aspect of high Stalinist culture of the Soviet Union long before those elements occured in reality.
		Zamyatin's background in math and engineering allowed him a descriptive power unknown in literature before We.
