Great Soviet Encyclopedia: in 30 volumes / Ch. ed. A. M. Prokhorov. - 3rd ed. - M.: Sov. Encycl., 1969 - 1978.

The Great Soviet Encyclopedia (GSE) is one of the largest and most authoritative universal encyclopedias in the world. This is the most ambitious publishing project of the Soviet era. Three editions have been published over the course of fifty years. All the fundamental decisions related to the work on the TSB - from the definition of policy in terms of its content to the organization of printing execution, have always been made at the highest state and party levels.
In 1925, in accordance with the resolutions of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks and the Central Executive Committee of the USSR, the joint-stock company “State Scientific Publishing House “Great Soviet Encyclopedia” (then “Soviet Encyclopedia”, now “Great Russian Encyclopedia”) was established, and work began on preparation of the first edition. A total of 65 volumes were released. They were published from 1926 to 1947. From the very beginning, the leading scientists of the country were involved in writing articles, scientific guidance and editing, and this became a common practice for all subsequent years. The first edition of the TSB was prepared with the direct guidance and participation of N. I. Bukharin and other prominent party leaders, many of whom were later “debunked” and repressed. As the current director of the Big Russian Encyclopedia publishing house A. Gorkin noted: “The first edition of the TSB was written by opportunists.”
This partly explains the fact that work on the second edition began immediately after the completion of the first (without any pause) - the Stalinist leadership had to quickly eliminate traces of the activities of the Bolsheviks of the “Leninist call”. Volumes of the second edition began to appear in 1950. By 1958, 50 main volumes and one additional volume were published, which contained mainly (irony of fate!), Biographies of prominent Soviet figures who had been repressed earlier under Stalin.
Presented here is the third edition of the TSB, published in 1969-1978. A total of 30 volumes were published (the 24th volume in two books, the second is entirely devoted to the USSR). The circulation of the last volumes reached 600,000 copies. The third edition, in comparison with the previous ones, is most free from ideological accretions, it is all the more interesting to read the article “From the Editorial Board”, which precedes Volume I, from which it is clear under what pressure all work on the encyclopedia was going on even in the post-Stalin era.
Nevertheless, the authors and editors of the encyclopedia managed to concentrate in it truly all the wealth of knowledge accumulated by mankind over the millennia. It was often the only source of adequate information about the most various subjects, events and people for the Soviet people, and - thereby - turned into one of the bright and multifaceted, in its own way "cult" phenomena of the Soviet era.
The information collected in the TSB, in the overwhelming majority, remains relevant today. What is "obsolete" is of enduring historical interest. The fact that in 1973-1983 the well-known Anglo-American publishing house Macmillan undertook the translation and publication of the encyclopedia into English language long before the completion of the original edition in Russian. Both projects were carried out in parallel, "English" volumes were regularly published after the "Russian".
The last three years have marked new stage in the history of the BSE. Cooperation between the Big Russian Encyclopedia publishing house and the Autopan company has begun to convert the encyclopedia into electronic format. A set of three CD-ROMs in the Golden Fund series is scheduled for the summer of 2001. Our website presents an electronic version of the full text of the TSB prepared by Autopan for these discs.

Big Soviet Encyclopedia(TSB) is one of the largest and most authoritative universal encyclopedias in the world.

The 1970-1978 edition is the third edition.

A total of 30 volumes were published (the 24th volume in two books, the second is entirely devoted to the USSR). The third edition, in comparison with the previous ones, is the most free from ideological accretions. The authors and editors of the encyclopedia managed to concentrate in it truly all the wealth of knowledge accumulated by mankind over the millennia. This edition of the TSB pays great attention to the philosophical problems of natural science, the growing influence of physical and chemical sciences on all branches of natural science and technology, as well as the widespread use of mathematical methods in economics, sociology, linguistics and other branches of knowledge.

The encyclopedia is beautifully illustrated, with gravure print inserts, color letterpress inserts, color offset print inserts, inset maps, color map inserts, maps, illustrations and diagrams in text.

The information collected in the TSB, in the overwhelming majority, remains relevant today. What is "obsolete" is of enduring historical interest. The fact that in 1973-1983 the well-known Anglo-American publishing house "Macmillan" undertook the translation and publication of the encyclopedia in English long before the completion of the original edition in Russian can serve as a recognition of the informational value of the TSB.

In 1957-1990, the second and then the third edition was supplemented annually by the one-volume Yearbook of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia. They published updated information about the USSR and other countries, information about important events that took place in the world, and fresh biographical information. A total of 34 issues of the yearbook were published.

In accordance with the resolution of the Central Committee of the CPSU (February 2, 1967), since 1967, the preparation of the 3rd edition of the TSB was carried out. The publication contains 30 volumes (volume No. 24 in two books). Additional volume(second book of 24 volumes) of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, dedicated to the Soviet Union. The third edition was published between 1969 and 1978 with a circulation of about 630,000 copies. In 1981, the Alphabetical Name Index was issued for the third edition of the TSB (circulation 50,000 copies).

Despite the fact that the 3rd edition is smaller than the 2nd edition (3.5 thousand copyright sheets), it contains 95,279 articles, 29,120 illustrations, 3,701 portraits and 524 color maps. The editor-in-chief is Academician A. M. Prokhorov (since 1969).

Compared to the second edition of the TSB, the publication pays great attention to the philosophical problems of natural science, physical and chemical sciences, as well as mathematical methods in economics, sociology, linguistics and other branches of knowledge.

The third edition of the encyclopedia was translated into English and published by the American publishing house Macmillan (Macmillan Publishers Ltd.) in 1973-1982. Also, the third edition of the TSB was translated into Greek. The methodological experience of the TSB was used in the preparation of the Small Soviet Encyclopedia (3 editions in 1928-60), other universal reference books, including the one-volume Soviet Encyclopedic Dictionary (4 editions in 1979-91), the two-volume Big Encyclopedic Dictionary (1991), and contributed to the development encyclopedia in the country.
In 2001, the 3rd edition of the TSB was reissued on CDs (3 CDs) by the Autopan company.

Articles of the first 10 volumes (from "A" to "Italics"), published before 1973, are in the public domain in the United States, but are protected by copyright law in Russia. The rights to the publication belong to the legal successor of the publishing house "Soviet Encyclopedia" - the state publishing house "Great Russian Encyclopedia" (BRE).

The rights to the electronic edition were transferred under agreements to several companies - in particular, the exclusive rights to the online edition belong to Russ Portal, the owners of the Rubricon website, and the rights to the multimedia (CD-ROM) edition belong to the company " New disk" and etc.
