There are many examples illustrating the wit of scientists, their penchant for jokes. One such example is the comic poem "The Song of the Refractor" by the Berlin student Benno Messow (1898), which imitates the famous poem "The Song of the Bell" by Friedrich Schiller. The text of this work, found in the archives of the Russian astronomer V.K. Tserasky, is evidence of both the penchant of scientists for humor, and the versatile scientific and friendly ties between scientists and engineers in Russia and Germany at the turn of the 19th-20th centuries. The proposed article is devoted to the analysis of Messow's poem, some pages of the biography of its author and the alleged circumstances of Messow's transfer of his work to V.K. Tserasky.

The Gulag as a system of terror and forced labor was the
cornerstone of Soviet mobilization efforts in the 1930s.
Paradoxically, during the war with Nazi Germany, the
Gulag’s capacities and economic significance did not grow,
but in fact declined, contrary to what one would expect. The

Несмотря на противопоставление этих точек зрения на развитие языка, их узнаваемость в юморе выполняет положительную консолидирующую и просветительскую функцию. ...
