It's great, Anton...

Thank you very, very much...

Do you think that "ZDP/ZBR" concept
is, in some way, a field-theory-like concept
as suggested by Valsiner and Van der Veer?
How do you evaluate that trying to merge
Vygotsky with Lewin's theory by Zeigarnik
and Birenbaum... (Birenbaum was "she"?
Gita?)

Thank you again!
Achilles.

Indeed so, I would even go as far as to claim that during the early 1930s Lewin becomes more insightful for Vygotsky than, say, Luria (and certainly not Leontiev).

The actual role of Vygotsky - I guess Samukhin was the one who actually wrote the paper, Birenbaum supervised it, and the whole study was conducted under the supervision of the deathly ill Vygotsky a couple of years before (I woudl still need to check out the actual dates provided in the text). This said, however, I do not think we should dismiss the experience of the Medical Doctor Samukhin as well as the contribution of Lewin's student Gita Birenbaum. I would say, this was a truly collaborative paper. Also, please note that the name of the third author (LSV) is in the black frame, which clearly means that the paper was published after his death.

Nobody knows for sure when the paper was written, but as a hint, I guess, it would be worthwhole to check out the list of the papers that Vygotsky proposed for a series on clinical psychology (see his letter to Luria of November 21, 1933 (Vestnik MGU, 2007; Journal of Russian and East European Psychology, vol. 45, no. 2, March–April 2007, pp. 11–60).

Finally, another couple of papers that have been overlooked by the historians of psychology are those by Birenbaum and Zeigarnik (1935a, 1935b), in which the authors are reporting on their studies under the supervision of Vygotksy and are clearly trying to merge the work of Vygotsky with Lewin's theory. Another good point of departure.
