Lenin, PhD in Philosophy, Professor, Professor of the Department of History, Philosophy and Law, Ivanovo, Russia, e-mail: [email protected] «What a mercy to be a reader of your journal» The publishing activity of the journal "Solovyov studies" is considered in the context of the prob- lems of preservation and research of V.S. Solovyov's philosophical, literary and journalistic legacy. The article provides an assessment of the place and role of the journal in the development of research on the history of Russian philosophy. The author points to the need for systematic activities to preserve the memory of V.S. Solovyov as the greatest Russian philosopher. Keywords: the journal “Solovyov studies”, V.S. Solovyov's philosophical, literary and journal- istic legacy, memory of V.S. Solovyov 5 V.S. SOLOVYOV’S HERITAGE: STUDIES AND PUBLICATIONS Mezhuyev Boris Vadimovich Lomonosov Moscow State University, PhD (Philosophy), Associate Professor of the Department of History of Russian Philosophy of the Faculty of Philosophy, Russia, Moscow, e-mail: [email protected] «The meaning of state»: the byzantine idea on the pages of the liberal journal The article considers the reaction in the Russian society on the piece by Vl. Soloviev «The Mean- ing of State» which was published by the liberal journal «The Herald of Europe» in December 1895. Special attention is paid on the causes of the indignation at this article in the left circles which were already peeved against the philosopher for his previous work of the same year - «The Meaning of War», and on the motives of the approval of «The Meaning of State» by the right publicists. It is stressed that the most important task for Vl. Soloviev in the period of writing his treatise «The Justification of Moral Good» was to demonstrate his allegiance to that ideas of his father, the prominent liberal historian S.M. Soloviev which could be seen, from the standpoint of the «fin de siècle» liberalism, as very conservative. The author formulates a hypothesis that the article “The Meaning of State” was destined to incorporate into the corpus of the ethical treatise by Vl. Soloviev but the specific way of polarization of Russian public opinion and the desire of philosopher to stay in the liberal circle determined his decision to ex- clude the predominant piece of this text from the book. It is stated that the article «The Meaning of State” was kept in memory for a long time as a strange and unique phenomenon of the appearance of the apology of Byzantine, autocratic state on the pages of leading liberal issue. Key words: the state, liberalism, Byzantine idea, constitutional regime, autocracy, conserva- tism, theocracy, the philosophy of law, the ethical philosophy References 1. Solov'ev, Vl.S. Smysl voyny.

Any opinions or claims contained in this Working Paper do not necessarily reflect the views of HSE. SERIES: LINGUISTICS ​ Olga Lyashevskaya1, Kristina Litvintseva2, Ekaterina Vlasova3, Eugenia Sechina4 A Data Analysis Tool for the Corpus of Russian Poetry5 A data analysis tool of the Corpus of Russian Poetry (a part of the Russian National Corpus) is designed for quantitative research in various areas of versology and linguistics aspects of the poetic texts. The core part, a frequency database of the corpus, includes annotation at the level of texts, verses, words as well as patterns of words, letters, and stress. The tool allows a user to study certain properties (e. g. rhyming patterns, lexical co-occurrence) taken alone and in their interaction, both in the whole corpus and in subcorpora. Besides that, it facilitates the contrastive studies of two chosen subcorpora. The paper reports a few case studies demonstrating applicable descriptive and exploratory methods and potential for further research in the field of the digital literary studies. JEL Classification: Z. Keywords: poetic corpora, quantitative linguistics, lexical markers, lexical diversity, rhyme, ​ linguistic poetics, versology, Russian language, Russian National Corpus 1. Introduction Russian versology has always heavily relied on statistics data as the basis for predictions and generalizations on meter, rhyme, and other formal and linguistic features of poetic language (see Gasparov 2005, Taranovsky 2010, Jakobson et al.

First, I would like to thank all members of my examining committee. First, my endless gratitude to Fred Corney for his encouragement, sharp editing, and perceptive questions. Sasha Prokhorov and Tuska Benes were generous enough to serve as additional readers and to share their time and comments. I also thank Laurie Koloski for her suggestions on Romantic Messianism, and her lessons over the years on writing and thinking historically. Tony Anemone provided helpful editorial comments in the very early stages of the project. Finally, I come to those people who sustained me through the emotionally and intellectually draining aspects of this project. My parents have been unstinting in their encouragement and love. I cannot express here how much I owe Erin Alpert— I could not ask for a better sounding board, or a better friend. And to Dan Burke, for his love and his support of my love for history. 1 Introduction: Setting the Stage for Exile The history of communities in exile and their efforts to maintain national identity without belonging to a recognized nation-state is a recurring theme not only in general histories of Europe, but also a significant trend in Russian history.

  • Appendix! Fyodor Dostoevsky and Vladimir Solovyov*
    Appendix! Fyodor Dostoevsky and Vladimir Solovyov* (In memory of Dr Nicolas M. Zernov, 1898-1980) The volume and scope of critical and commentarial literature devoted to Dostoevsky's thought in the century since his death is clear evidence of the richness and complexity encountered in his works. In the figure of Vladimir Solovyov - both in his person and his writings - we also encounter a high degree of complexity. Tracing the patterns of his thought, we find certain tensions and a number of striking incongruities. Here was - a man who was, at heart, a monarchist, but aroused the anger and suspicions of the Tsar and Holy Synod through his advocacy of theocratic government; a man who embraced so much that was characteristic of the Slavophiles, and yet was a staunch supporter of their arch-enemy, Peter the Great; a man so seemingly keen to reaffirm the worth of contemplative spirituality, but who personally resisted the decision to join a monastery, a step that he at one time regarded as 'flight' from the world. Those who knew Solovyov at first hand stressed what they regarded either as his sanctity or his eccentricity (his chudachestvo ). Accounts of the excitement generated by his university lectures on philosophy certainly show that he commanded a surprising degree of authority and respect. On the other hand, Solovyov had to contend with numerous uncharitable gibes and with accusations to the effect that he had set himself up as a 'prophet'. Perhaps his best response to adverse criticism of this kind was to deflate his *A Paper delivered at the VI Symposium of the International Dostoevsky Society, 9-16 August 1986, University of Nottingham.
