摘要

1947年9月,南非最著名的地质学家亚历山大·洛吉·杜·托伊特博士(FRS)——他以支持大陆漂移的概念而闻名——接待了刚到南非的一对在斯洛文尼亚受过教育的俄罗斯移民夫妇——弗塞沃洛德和尤金尼·戈尔斯基。弗谢沃洛德出生在现在的乌克兰,是一名采矿工程师、地质学家和地球物理学家,在矿产行业拥有丰富的经验,而他的妻子尤金妮出生在俄罗斯高加索地区,是一名分析地球化学家。弗谢沃洛德与杜·托伊特有过简短的信件往来,希望他能帮助他在南非的矿产行业找到工作。在给杜·托伊特的第一封信中包括了弗谢沃洛德和尤金妮·戈尔斯基的详细简历。这些详细的履历使我们能够重现这两位地球科学专业人员在20世纪初在斯洛文尼亚和马其顿接受的培训(在卢布尔雅那大学,受俄罗斯矿物学家V.V.尼基丁的影响)和职业生涯,并跟踪他们在第二次世界大战开始前离开南斯拉夫王国时在塞浦路斯、埃及、坦噶尼喀和南非的漂泊生涯。它们最终在20世纪60年代和70年代来到了巴西,可能在那里退休了。尤金妮不得不跟着丈夫走到他事业的任何地方,但她最终总是在他们所在的大多数国家和地方工作。作为一对环游世界的职业夫妇,戈尔斯基夫妇是一种生活方式的先驱,这种生活方式在当今全球化的世界中很常见。

Peripatetic careers of Vsevolod and Eugenie Gorsky, mid-20th century Slovenian-educated geoscientists
In September 1947, South Africa’s most famous geologist, Dr Alexander Logie du Toit, FRS, well known for his support of the concept of Continental Drift, received a visit from a Slovenian-educated Russian émigré couple, Vsevolod and Eugenie Gorsky, who were newly arrived in South Africa. Vsevolod, born in what is now Ukraine, was a mining engineer, geologist and geophysicist with vast experience in the minerals industry, while his wife Eugenie, born in the Russian Caucasus, was an analytical geochemist. Vsevolod had a brief exchange of letters with du Toit, seeking his help in obtaining employment in South Africa’s minerals industry. Included in the first letter to du Toit were detailed curricula vitae of both Vsevolod and Eugenie Gorsky. These detailed CVs allow us to reconstruct the training (at the University of Ljubljana, under the influence of Russian mineralogist V.V. Nikitin) and careers of these two earth science professionals in Slovenia and Macedonia, in the early Twentieth Century, and to follow their peripatetic careers as they left the Kingdom of Yugoslavia before the start of the Second World War, in Cyprus, Egypt, Tanganyika and South Africa. They ultimately ended up in Brazil in the 1960s and 1970s, and probably retired there. Eugenie was constrained to follow her husband wherever his career led him, but she always ended up working in most of the countries and places they found themselves in. As a professional couple who travelled the world, the Gorskys were pioneers in a way of life that is commonplace now in a globalized world.
