Abstract

The publication includes excerpts from the diary of E. P. Kazanovich (1920–1923) that describe her encounters and conversations with F. Sologub (his recorded statements about Pushkin, A. Blok, A. Bely etc. are of particular interest). The introductory article offers an outline of the diarist’s personality and her ideas concerning contemporary literature, largely suggested by her mentor and senior colleague at the Pushkin House N. A. Kotlyarevsky who had his own record of relations with Sologub (excerpts from their correspondence are used in the publication), and gradually verified by her own personal impressions. Kazanovich’s diary entries supplement the well-known memoirs and present a more comprehensive picture of Sologub’s artistic and human self in his late years.
