In this issue there is an article of the senior researcher Lidiya Slyusarenko from the National M.A.Sholokhov Museum-Reserve “M.A.Sholokhov in Denmark.

The issue is ended with the essay by Grigory Rychnev, a writer from Stanitsa Vyoshenskaya, telling about an unexpected meeting of M.A.Sholokhov and I.A.Kaleganov, who secretly erected in the 1980s, a monument to Kharlampiy Yermakov, the main prototype of Grigory Melekhov.
The materials of all the 10 sections of the journal are interesting. The introductory article “It Has a Soul…” is written by the well-known writer and literary scholar Valentin Kurbatov.
