metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: This article contains some response to critics who have written about the author’s book “Mirrors
  and the Chimeras. On the emergence of an Old Russian State”. These articles were written by
  P. I. Gaydenko and V. V. Puzanov. The author of the article and of the book is grateful for the high
  estimation of some aspects of his research and sees some weak sides of the book himself. For example,
  he could not take into account all works by foreign historians. The matter is that the material related to
  this subject matter is enormous and is dispersed among different and rare publications. Searching out
  relevant works must continue in the near future, but for this purpose great efforts are necessary. First
  of all, the author attempts to give answers which he calls peripheral problems. He means the title of his
  book, the language, and the images which he uses. All this represents an effort to make his work more
  interesting to his readers; but images also carry semantic value. The author has not the opportunity
  to argue historical problems, because for this reason one has to mobilize other works of the author, all
  his complex conceptions in a work of historiography. But anyway the author persists in his opinion
  on these historical problems. The main task of his book was to study the adventures of a “democratic
  path” in Russian polito-genesis. The author notes that the critics agree with his main idea and with
  his division into periods of Russian historiography. They criticized the author’s manner of conducting
  polemics. In this article the author attempts to explain his approach. Refs 16.
