Abstract

The article considers the life and activities of an outstanding Soviet historian of technology V.V. Danilevsky (1898–1960) during his stay in Sverdlovsk during the evacuation years. The path of V.V. Danilevsky in the history of technology is shown, when the profession «historian of science and technology» was just being formed, and the history of science and technology was formalized in independent research direction.

For several years it was held here such significant work on the study of industrial and technological development in the Urals that in 1944 there was on the basis of the Group organized by the Commission on the History of Technology of the USSR Academy of Sciences.
