Lindeman, Vladimir Karlovich

Born in 1868 in the family of a doctor and entomologist Karl Eduardovich Lindemann (1844-1928), a former professor at the Petrovsky Agricultural Academy .

He graduated from the 5th Moscow gymnasium with a silver medal (1888) and the medical faculty of Moscow University with a doctor’s degree (1893). He was left at the university to prepare for a professorship in the Department of General Pathology. In 1895 he received a doctorate in medicine , and in 1897 he was appointed privat-docent at the Department of General Pathology. In 1897-1898 he trained abroad in the laboratories of Königsberg , Freiburg , Strasbourg and Munich , as well as in the laboratory of Ilya Mechnikov at the Pasteur Institute .

In 1901 he was appointed extraordinary , and in 1905 - an ordinary professor in the department of general pathology at Kiev University of St. Vladimir . Thanks to the efforts of Lindemann, the university pathological laboratory was significantly expanded. In addition, in 1902 he was elected head of the department of experimental medicine at the Kiev Bacteriological Institute , and in 1910-1922 he was director of the institute. He became one of the founders of the Higher Women's Medical Courses in Kiev. He was a full member of the Kiev club of Russian nationalists ^[1] .

In the early 1920s, he was invited by the Polish authorities to Warsaw to organize a military gas mask institute. Since December 1922, he headed the laboratory at the Institute for Chemical Research in Warsaw. Received Polish citizenship (1925). Since 1926, he headed the Department of General Pathology at the University of Warsaw , and in 1931 he was appointed professor in the Department of General Pathology at the Jagiellonian University . He died in 1933 from a stroke . He was buried at the Volsky Orthodox cemetery .

In 1906 V.K. Lindeman was forced to duel the professor of the same Kiev University therapist Vasily Parmenovich Obraztsov . Their quarrel arose because of Lindeman's wife, Varvara Vladimirovna, in whom Obraztsov fell in love. The call occurred at a meeting of the university council, which excluded the possibility of an amicable resolution of the quarrel. Due to the fact that Obraztsov was not a shooter, and Lindemann was known as a good hunter, the result of the fight was not in doubt. The current situation was puzzled only by friends and colleagues, but also by the Governor-General, since it was a possible scandal - the death of the country's largest physician. It is believed that the resourcefulness of seconds allowed to do without victims. The distance between the shooters (according to the rules - at least 15 steps) was measured by Obraztsov's second - chemist S. N. Reformatsky was one of the seconds who, due to his height (215 cm), walked widely, which allowed him to almost double the distance. Lindeman's second, in turn, replaced the bullets with wads. As a result, Varvara Vladimirovna went to Obraztsov and became the mother of his two children ^[2] .
