Yuri Mikhailovich Lotman is a world-famous scientist, philologist and culturologist, whose works have been translated into all major European languages. His creative heritage is extremely extensive and includes about eight hundred scientific and popular science articles and books. He was destined to become the head of an entire scientific school that developed new methods of analyzing a literary text that were alien to official Soviet literary criticism. Like many outstanding scientists, it was difficult for Yu. M. Lotman to remain within the framework of one scientific discipline: his research was devoted not only to the literature of the 1980th and XNUMXth centuries, but also to the history of Russian social thought, art theory, and cultural studies. In the late XNUMXs, he lectured on television about the life and traditions of the Russian nobility: these television programs gathered millions of viewers at the screens. On the basis of a television series of lectures to scientists, the book "Conversations about Russian Culture" was created. It immerses the reader in the era of the XNUMXth - early XNUMXth centuries, which is presented through the realities of everyday life: a table of ranks, home education, a high society ball, a duel, a card game, etc. Due to the variety of documentary sources involved, the breadth of generalizations and the accessibility of presentation, one of the most important studies on the history of Russian noble culture is still popular not only among specialists, but also among a wide readership.
