THE GRADUATE OF THE ORIENTAL INSTITUTE (VLADIVOSTOK) I. G. BARANOV: SUMMARIZED BIOGRAPHY
The article contributes to studying the biography of the sinologist I. G. Baranov, who worked in China for nearly 50 years. Relying on unique documents acquired from the student Baranov's personal record and the equally valuable book by Hippolyt Gavrilovich “Four Years in the Oriental Institute. 1907-1911. From Personal Memories” the author discovers important aspects of the orientalists' academic training, which influenced I. G. Baranov's professional career and post-graduate activity.
