Abstract

The article deals with an important subject, which seems to have fallen out of the field of research, which is connected with the development of a draft special charter for the St. Petersburg University in 1819–1823. This project was developed personally by S. S. Uvarov, who was then a trustee of the Saint-Petersburg educational district. The aim of the work is to reconstruct the content of this lost project, which was based on the traditions of German free science, based on the materials of its discussion in the Main Board of Schools. This episode clearly reflected the triumph of religious- conservative attitudes in the policy of the Ministry of Public Education, which prevented the implementation of S. S. Uvarov's plans to "arrange" a European-level university in the capital of the empire, combining an educational organization on the model of German universities, a special faculty structure and management, more centralized than what was provided for by the university charters of the early XIX century.
