Reasons for Reading

This book presents a comprehensive collection of documents and evidence reflecting the history of the city's return to its name, "Saint Petersburg." The authors are convinced that these documents and evidence are important and all the more necessary because, 30 years later, a myth persists that attributes the restoration of historical justice to a single individual, ignoring the decisive role played by ordinary residents of our city and the 21st Leningrad City Council, which represented their interests.
The full restoration of the name "Saint Petersburg" was not a one-time undertaking and required the alignment of all the city's attributes and symbols, and the return of its streets and squares to their historical names. This, too, was a difficult but successful undertaking.
The documents presented to the reader are accompanied by detailed commentary and an account of the history of their adoption.

В этой книге максимально полно представлены документы и свидетельства, отражающие историю возвращение городу его имени «Санкт-Петербург». Авторы убеждены: эти приведённые документы и свидетельства важны и тем более необходимы потому, что и 30 лет спустя ещё бытует миф, приписывающий заслугу в восстановлении исторической справедливости одному лицу и игнорирущий ту решающую роль, которую сыграли простые жители нашего города и представлявший их интересы Ленсовет XXI созыва.
Полноценное возвращение имени «Санкт Петербург» оказалось не разовой акцией и потребовало приведения в соответствие всей атрибутики и символики города, возвращения его улицам, площадям их исторических названий. И это стало также делом нелёгким, но успешным.
Предлагаемые читателю документы сопровождаются обстоятельными комментариями и изложением истории их принятия.

Opening Paragraph

Once upon a time, the poet A.S. Pushkin, having asked in one of his brilliant poems the question: “What is in my name for you?”, reminded and made us think about the inseparable connection between name and destiny.
Applying this question to the topic of our book, let's carefully examine the chronology of the historical names of the city built on the Baltic shores at the mouth of the Neva.

Некогда поэт А.С.Пушкин, задав в одном из своих гениальных стихотворений вопрос: «Что в имени тебе моём?», напомнил и заставил задуматься о неразрывности связи имени и судьбы.
Применяя этот вопрос к теме нашей книги, внимательно посмотрим хронологию исторических наименований города, воздвигнутого на Балтийских берегах в устье Невы.
