1. Preface.
Oleg Sokolov was known to the world before the events with Anastasia Yeshchenko. But after these events, his fame has grown tensfold. The media focuses mainly on the criminal component of events. At the same time, one of the materials mentioned "Napoleonic studies". ('... Candidate of Historical Sciences, Head of the Department of Fine Arts of the State Museum of A.S. Pushkin Lidia Ivchenko.
'I have known Sokolov for many years, he did not have a stronger passion like the topic of Napoleonic era,' Ivchenko wrote. 'He publicly wore the uniform of a French general. He defended his dissertation on a Napoleonic studies [on a Napoleonism]. " https://www.kp.by/daily/217168/4269016/)
I remember a Schliemann studies - a special section of antique studies and the fate of its leader Igor Aleksevich Bogdanov ... When he was alive, for example, a book by A.K. Gavrilov "Petersburg in the fate of Heinrich Schliemann" appeared [2006]. At first glance, it is good that this book has appeared ... But this book, in moment of most powerful creative activity of Igor Bogdanov , de facto questioned his leadership of in a Schliemann studies ...
Igor Bogdanov died [2010] (allegedly from a heart attack). The cultural leader passed away - with his stream of books dedicated to Heinrich Schliemann - and where the Schliemann studies by A.K. Gavrilov? Where is the scientific and public interest in Heinrich Schliemann? Where is a Schliemann studies?
If we recognize the existence of Napoleonic studies [of Napoleonism] as a separate section of research on the history of France, on the history of Europe, then, in such case, the biography of Oleg Sokolov, the leader of Russial Napoleonic studies, should be recognized as worthy of interest.
2. The youth of Oleg Sokolov and critical experience.
Oleg Sokolov was born on July 9, 1956 in Leningrad. Parents - Lyudmila and Valery Sokolov.
His interest in France arose after reading books by French authors (Charles Nodier, the story "Inès de las Sierras").
Leningrad Polytechnic Institute, studies to become an engineer-physicist. The first experience of historical reconstruction using theatrical props of the Napoleonic era.
Studying at the Faculty of History of the Leningrad State University.
1976 - Sokolov creates the first military-historical reconstruction team in the USSR.
According to media reports, in the 1980s, Sokolov was a member of the Petrovsky Military History Club. In 1981, Oleg Sokolov took over control of the ship - without the necessary experience. A shipwreck followed. One person allegedly died (drowned).
Military-historical reconstructions are masses of people, these are weapons, equipment ... Perhaps the experience of the shipwreck was a lesson to Sokolov for the future. Nothing is known about other tragic incidents during the military-historical reconstructions (with the participation of Sokolov and with elements of his guilt).
3. Sokolov - the leader of the movement of historical reconstruction in the USSR.
1989 - Sokolov becomes President of the Federation of Military History Clubs.
In various internet materials there is a frame with the image of Sokolov (shooting of foreign TV). Sokolov in a historical uniform. Caption: "TF1 report about the reconstruction of the Battle of Borodino in the USSR in 1988 and about Russian reenactors with Oleg Sokolov ..., Russian reenactors before the fall of the eastern block."
In 2003, the President of the French Republic Jacques Chirac signed a decree awarding Sokolov the Order of the Legion of Honor for his great contribution to the study and popularization of the history of France and its army.
4. Victor Baturin. Plush shit. 2004 - 2007.
According to media reports, around this time (2004-2007) Sokolov resigned from St. Petersburg State University and worked as a consultant for Viktor Baturin, a relative of Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov.
This is a period of financial abundance. An apartment in the center of Moscow, a company car with a driver, trips around Europe, meeting Ekaterina, a pleasant pastime in European hotels. Ekaterina left a very interesting memories of her relationship with Sokolov ('And he, also, didn't skimp on [gifts of] plush shit, he filled me up with cubs.'). Sokolov answered Ekaterina [already after incident with Anastasia Yeshchenko] with his detailed recollections of this period.
The relationship with Ekaterina ended with her statement to law enforcement agencies, where she spoke about beatings and threats. The statement was not pushed in a law stream. But this statement surfaced after the creation of a persecution ring around Sokolov and after the events with Anastasia Yeschenko.
Since about April 2008, unpleasant changes in his fate awaited Viktor Baturin. Sokolov returned to St. Petersburg.
5. 2012. A celebrating the anniversary of the victory in the Patriotic War of 1812.
There is an information on the Internet about the historical reconstruction of fragments of the Battle of Borodino [2012].
Distinguished French guests came and laid wreaths. The leadership of Russia has arrived.
Everyone liked the celebration of the anniversary very much. The magnificent figure of Napoleon was mentioned. We were unable to come across a concrete statement that it was Sokolov who was portraying Napoleon. But, apparently, it was Oleg Sokolov.
Napoleon, in the heat of a tense battle, apparently did not drive up to anyone required and did not take off his hat ...
Napoleon wasn't awarded in any way based on the results of an excellent celebration ...
6. 2012-2013. A creation of the Military Historical Society. A gradual change of leadership. Sokolov's sunset begins.
With the advent of the Military Historical Society in 2012-2013, Sokolov's status is gradually changing. From the position of leader of the movement of military historical reconstruction, he is pushed aside to a secondary role in the Military Historical Society.
Changes are taking place above Sokolov - in the leadership of St. Petersburg State University (where Sokolov works). Let's remind that useful cooperation with Baturin was lost for Sokolov. The situation is getting worse for Sokolov, but he is trying to hold on. He's trying to cling. He has connections abroad, a scientific reputation (about 100 scientific papers). He is the leader in the Napoleonic studies in Russia. He lectures well. He makes an impression on students and female students ...
7. Tentatively 2014 - 2019. A creation of a ring of a baiting around Sokolov.
Approximately in 2004-2017, an amateur historian was escorted onto public orbit.
Around 2016 - Oleg Sokolov's acquaintance with Anastasia Yeshchenko and the beginning of a relationship with her.
About 2018 - a two-year (approximately) conflict begins between Sokolov and an amateur scientist started.
'He [Sokolov] received constant calls. Not only he [received constant calls], but, also, his woman [Anastasia Yeshchenko] [received constant calls]. Constant calls with threats of physical harm, with threats of murder. They hacked his e-mail, pulled letters out of there for everyone to see. Some idiotic pranks. They organized calls from allegedly the presidential administration, offering him some incredible prospects. They climbed into his entrance, painted all the walls with nasty things. They were throwing to him some things. "
The perpetrators of baiting entered the house (entrance), they came to the university auditorium ...
8.2019. Sokolov arming himself. The loop of a baiting has tightened.
After Sokolov was detained, three weapons were found in his possession: a traumatic pistol in his pocket, an unregistered sawn-off shotgun with a large stock of live ammunition, a officialy registered rifle ...
In 2019, the leader of the Russial Napoleonic studies could count on an increasing number of weapons to protect himself and his woman ... These are Russial realities ...
According to media reports, on November 7, 2019, after the start of a critical quarrel, Anastasia Yeshchenko began to read offensive inscriptions at the entrance and shout them out to Sokolov ... Sokolov began to search the Internet for information related to his conflict ... Perhaps Anastasia Yeshchenko in that situation seemed to him to be a hostile figure sides ...
The evening ended tragically ...
On November 8, 2019, Anastasia Yeshchenko passed away.
9. 2020 year. Oleg Sokolov and the Russial Napoleonic studies.
After a brief acquaintance with the biography of Oleg Sokolov, one gets the impression that it, his biography, partly resembles the biography of Igor Alekseevich Bogdanov, the leader of a Russial Schliemann studies ...
A period of vigorous activity ... indifferent attitude (hostility?) of official structures ... a sudden precipice ...
Due to the fact that Oleg Sokolov did not manage to become a doctor of sciences and a professor (with all his achievements), the creation of a scientific school for him was a difficult enterprise. Anastasia Yeshchenko was his micro-scientific school ... The fate of Sokolov and Yeshchenko is tragic ...
Such are the destinies of enthusiasts, leaders of scientific fields ...
