The origins of Russian Slavic Studies: Sreznevsky I.I.
View through CrossRef
The article is dedicated to one of the founders of Russian Slavistics, Izmail Ivanovich Sreznevsky (1812–80). Beginning his academic career with the study of Slavic folklore, he gradually expanded the sphere of his research. He wrote an essay on the history of Serbian-Luzhich literature, and then concentrated his attention on southern Slavs: their languages, old literature and paleography of old Slavic manuscripts. Teaching Slavic philology at Kharkov and St. Petersburg universities, he laid the foundations of academic Slavistics disciplines such as dialectology, mythology and ethnography. In 1846 he became the first doctor of Slavic-Russian philology and brought up a whole generation of brilliant scholars of Slavistics. For his scientific merits he was elected a full member of the Imperial Academy of Sciences and for many years was the editor-in-chief of the “News of the Department of Russian Language and Speech” of the Academy of Sciences.
