Abstract
The article considers the insufficiently studied in scientific literature issues, connected with geographical researches by Dmitrii Aleksandrovich Klements during his stay in a political exile in Minusinsk. The base of this article are the documents of the Siberian archives (Tomsk, Irkutsk, Minusinsk), which are earlier not introduced for scientific use. Using the methodology of modern biographic history the author has attempted to reconstruct D. A. Klements’ life in an administrative exile and to show how he has transformed from the revolutionary populist into the scientist and the traveler who has played a big role in geographical, geological, ethnographic and archaeological studying of the Minusinsk Depression, Kuznetsk Alatau, Altai and Tuva. Such aspects of activity of D. A. Klements as museum work and newspaper journalism are studied. His contribution in geographical studying of the remote and earlier little-studied places of Southern Siberia is defined, in particular, in mapping of area, the analysis of its geological structure, and the collecting of fauna and flora.
