Re: [xmca] Vygotsky conference/Portugal



Anton, all these people are younger generation of post-soviet
relations with Russian colleagues. I met Quintino at Luria conference in
Moscow in 2002 and he invited me and some other colleagues for the 2003
conference In Lisbon were I met Dot and other researches from all over the
world (Iran, Germany etc.). When we entered IPAF the portraits of Vygotsky
and Luria were on the central entrance to the institute together with the
photo of M.Mendes who was the founder of the institute and when I visited
the institute next time there was also Leontjev's portrait. I am
looking  for the third visit and hope it will be as nice experience as it
was before.
