| Description | The aim of the book is to clarify one of the fundamental chapters of Russian historiography history. It puts forward analysis of the Russian history concept of Boris N. Chicherin (1858–1904) within the Russian historiography context of that time and within the context of Chicherin’s works on politics and philosophy. The paper shows the beginnings and circumstances of the so called state school of Russian historiography, the representatives of which were apart from Chicherin other reputable representatives of Russian historical thinking – K. D. Kavelin, S. M. Solov’ev and T. N. Granovskii. Using the relevant sources the individual aspects of their Russian history concepts are examined as well as the reaction to their work at that time. The book also shows the connections between the Russian history concept of Chicherin and Russian liberalism of the 19th century. |
