Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ivan Mikhailovich Snegirev was one of the first Russian ethnographers. He published detailed descriptions of almost every church and monastery in Moscow. The son of a university professor, Snegiryov graduated from Moscow University in 1814 and since 1818 taught Latin language there. He was active as a censor throughout Nicholas I's reign, censoring such works as Eugene Onegin and Dead Souls. He shared the ideals of Official Nationality and belonged to a circle of antiquaries dominated by Nikolai Rumyantsev. He was one of the first to collect Russian proverbs and describe folk rituals and observances. His ground-breaking work on Russian lubok was printed in 1844. Snegirev's lengthy description of Moscow (1865-73) was feted by Fyodor Buslayev as the best guidebook to the city. He supervised restoration of the Kremlin buildings and the Romanov Boyar House. His journals were published in 2 volumes in 1904-05.
