VICTOR SERGE (1890-1947)Victor Serge was born Victor Lvovich Kibalchich on 30 December 1890 in Brussels. He first took the penname "Victor Serge" in March 1917 in an article written for the journal, Tierra y libertad. Serge's mother,Vera Mikhailovna Poderevskaya, was of Polish origin and had arrived in Belgium after leaving her firsthusband in Russia; Serge's father, Leon Ivanovich Kibalchich, was Russian and had fled Russia after theassassination of Tsar Alexander II in 1881 (Kibalchich had been involved in the plot against the Tsar andwas distantly related to Nikolai Ivanovich Kibalchich, the chemist who had made the bombs that killed theTsar).

Serge's childhood was one of poverty. His brother, Raoul, died of malnutrition, and Serge, himself, was oftenhungry. He never went to school, but learned to read from his parents' library. As a teenager, he joinedan anarchist commune in Belgium, where he wrote articles (the first one in April 1908) for its papers, Lecommuniste and Le révolté, under the pseudonym "Le Rétif."

As a young man, Serge moved to France, where he wrote for L'anarchie in Paris, which he took overwith Rirette Maîtrejean (née Anna Estorges) in 1911. In January 1912, he and Rirette were arrested andimprisoned for their part in defending the actions of the Bonnot Gang (Serge had written a supportivearticle in L'anarchie, and the police had found two revolvers at the journal's oce). Rirette wassubsequently acquitted in 1913, but Serge was sentenced to four years in prison. His novel, Les hommesdans la prison, was based on this experience.

Serge married Rirette while in prison to ensure her visiting rights. When he was released in January 1917and expelled from France, he and Rirette went to Barcelona, but she returned to Paris shortly thereafter.In Barcelona, Serge became aliated with the Syndicalists and with the Confederación Nacional deTrabajadores. The setting for portions of his novel, Naissance de notre force, is taken from his experiencesin Barcelona at the time of the uprising.

News of the Russian Revolution impelled Serge to return to France in an attempt to join the Russian armyfrom Paris. He was arrested in October 1917 as a suspected Bolshevik and interned. Finally, in January1919, Serge, along with other prisoners, was exchanged by France for some French ocers interned bythe Russian revolutionary government. One of the other prisoners was a Jewish revolutionary, Alexander

Roussakov, who was accompanied by his daughters. Serge later married one of Roussakov's daughters,Liouba.

When Serge arrived in Petrograd, he began working for the Communist International (Comintern) underGrigory Zinovyev, the Communist Party's Commissariat of Foreign Aairs, the archives of the tsarist secretpolice, and communist publications in the West. He also joined the Communist Party. Serge and Liouba'sson, Vlady, was born in Petrograd on 15 August 1920.

From 1922 until 1926, Serge (with his family) was sent by the Comintern to Berlin and then to Viennafor the purpose of forming a revolutionary working-class movement in the West. His responsibilitiesincluded editing Inprekorr. They returned to Russia in 1926, to work with Leon Trotsky and the LeftOpposition. When Trotsky was arrested and exiled from Leningrad by Stalin in 1928, Serge was alsoarrested, imprisoned for six weeks, and subsequently expelled from the Communist Party.

Serge spent the next five years, from 1928 until 1933, in Leningrad. Forbidden to leave the country, he wasisolated from his colleagues, and G. P. U. agents were stationed in his communal apartment to monitorhim. During this time, Serge's wife suered severely from mental illness. In spite of these conditions,Serge managed to write his first three novels, Les hommes dans la prison, Naissance de notre force, and Ville conquise, and an historical work, L'an I de la révolution russe. He wrote each work in small portions,sending each section abroad as soon as it was finished to ensure that it would be published.

In 1933, Serge was arrested again and sent to Orenburg. Vlady joined him there soon after, and Lioubavisited intermittently. A daughter, Jeannine, was born in February 1935. In the meantime, Serge's friends andcolleagues in Paris began campaigning for his release. Among those involved were Georges Duhamel, LucDurtain, André Gide, Victor Margueritte, Marcel Martinet, Magdeleine Marx (Paz), Charles Plisnier, HenryPoulaille, Charles Vidrac, Leon Werth, and Maurice Wullens. In June 1935, at the International Writers'Congress for the Defence of Culture, held in Paris, a debate took place regarding Serge's situation.

As pressure increased on the Soviet government, Serge and his family were finally expelled in 1936, andtheir Soviet citizenships were revoked. At the same time, Serge's manuscripts were confiscated, includingLes hommes perdus (a memoir of French anarchism before World War I) and La tourmente (a sequel to Ville conquise). Serge and his family arrived in Brussels in April 1936; he had narrowly missed the purgesthat began that year in Russia.

While working as a typesetter and writing against the purges and the Moscow trials that followed, Sergealso found time to write De Lénine à Staline and Destin d'une révolution in 1937. He joined the P. O. U. M.under the leadership of his friend and colleague, Andrés Nin, who was arrested and murdered in June 1937by the Spanish Communists.

In April 1937, Serge moved to Paris, where Liouba's mental condition deteriorated, and she wasinstitutionalized. It was in Paris that Serge met the archaeologist, Laurette Séjourné, with whom he begana relationship. A rift had begun to emerge in 1937 between Serge and Trotsky, partly because of theirdierences of opinion about the P. O. U. M., and in 1939, they broke o contact. (Serge later co-wrote abiography of Trotsky, Vie et mort de Trotsky, with Trotsky's wife, Nataliia Ivanovna Trotskaia, in 1946).Serge became increasingly isolated from his colleagues, but he continued to write. In 1939, he finished thenovel, S'il est minuit dans le siècle, and a biographical work, Portrait de Staline.

In August 1940, as the German army approached Paris, Serge, Vlady, and Séjourné fled to Marseilles, wherethey lived outside the city with André Breton and his family (Jeannine had been assigned a temporarywartime placement in February). Serge described this period of his life in the novel, Les derniers temps.

While struggling to obtain a visa out of France, Serge learned of Trotsky's murder in Mexico City. Aftermany countries refused entrance to Serge (including the United States), Mexico finally accepted him andhis family. On 25 March 1941, Serge and Vlady left Marseilles on a converted cargo-ship, the Capitaine Paul-Lemerle, with the Bretons and Claude Lévi-Strauss, among others. Serge and Vlady arrived in Mexico Cityin August 1941, after a circuitous trip through Martinique, the Dominican Republic, and Cuba. Laurette andJeannine joined them there a year later, in March 1942.

Serge lived in Mexico for more than six years after his arrival. Isolated from his colleagues, and havingtrouble publishing his writing, he also feared attempts on his life. Nevertheless, he wrote voluminously,finishing two novels, L'aaire Toulaév and Les années sans pardon, and an autobiographical work, Mémoires d'un révolutionnaire.

Serge had heart trouble in Mexico City (his doctor attributed it to the high altitude), and he died froman embolism on 17 November 1947. He was buried in a pauper's grave in the Spanish Republican sectionof the Mexico City cemetery as someone without a nationality. In Mémoires d'un révolutionnaire, hehad described himself thus: "A political exile since my birth, I have known both the real benefits and theoppressive hardships of the uprooted man...For my own part, I have no regrets at carrying this leadenburden, since I can feel myself to be at one and the same time Russian, French, European and Eurasian, astranger to no land, despite the law, and recognizing everywhere, in all the diversity of place and person,the unity of the world and of mankind."

This biographical note draws on information kindly supplied by Richard Greeman and is also derived fromBill Marshall, Victor Serge: The Uses of Dissent (New York: Berg Publishers Limited, 1992).
