Abstract
Our compatriots in China are trying to preserve the memory of their predecessors, because «continuity of generations» is not just words for Russians in China. The problem of preserving the memory of Soviet specialists sent to help the People’s Republic of China in 1949–1961 comes to the fore. The purpose of this study is to analyze the biography of the Soviet scientist-shipbuilder in Shanghai — George G. Voskresensky, who worked in Shanghai in 1959–1960. The article uses a biographical research method. The sources of biographical data are the personal documents of G. G. Voskresensky (documents, photographs, scientific works of the scientist). Materials of an interview with the scientist’s daughter, Tsitsishvili Elena Georgievna, are also used. The article uses original sources — photographs and documents of the scientist, which are preserved in the Voskresensky family. The research methodology is based on the study of the biographical material of the scientist. The research is done on the basis of a project of the Association of Russian Scientists in China with the support of the Coordinating Council of Compatriots in China.
