Vospominaniia. Stat`i. Razmyshleniia

This is a book of memoirs, articles and notes by academician Fedor Buslaev (1818-1897), a specialist in lives of Russian Orthodox saints, old Russian painting, Church Slavonic and Old Russian languages. He was the first professor of the Moscow University who taught a course on the history of the Russian language. He wrote about his meetings with many famous writers, scholars, artists, and painters in this book. Many of Buslaev’s works retain their importance today thanks to the historian’s artistic taste, the accuracy of his studies, his sense of proportion and the soundness of his conclusions. Also available by the same author: O Russkoi Ikone (1997); Drevnerusskaia Literatura i Pravoslavnoe Iskusstvo (2001); Istoricheskaia Khrestomatiia Tserkovnoslavianskogo i Drevnerusskogo Iazykov (2004).
