Arkady Timiryasev
Arkady Klimentievich Timiryazev (Russian: Аркадий Климентьевич Тимирязев; 19 October 1880 — 15 November 1955) was a Russian Marxist physicist and philosopher.
Arkady was the son of the prominent agronomist and biologist Kliment Timiryazev. He was closely associated with Maxim Gorky. Although he was deemed a professor of physics at Moscow State University, he was derided as the "monument's son" by people who questioned his competence. He was an ardent defender of the classical physics propounded by Isaac Newton and was particularly noted for his vitriolic denunciations of Albert Einstein. He used his Bolshevik ideology to attack other Soviet physicists such as Abram Ioffe and Sergei Vavilov. However he gained acceptance from Joseph Stalin, whose works he scoured for references to physics, which he would then cite.
He wrote "Albert Einstein: Relativity: The Special and General Theory" which appeared in 1922 in the first issue of Under the Banner of Marxism (UBM). This was a review of the Russian translation of Einstein's 1916 book Über die spezielle und die allgemeine Relativitätstheorie. Here Timiryasev argued that:
Sixteen years later he wrote "The Theory of Relativity as a Source of Philosophical Idealism" which also appeared in UBM in 1938. Here he stated:
