Summary / Abstract (Note) | Nickolay Fyodorovich Katanov is one of the outstanding scholar- Turcologists, a researcher of Ural-Altaic world. His creative work was devoted to multidimensional aspects of scientific activity: ethnography and history, linguistics and translation studies, literary studies and folklore, numismatics and museum work, archaeology and local lore. He was also a talented professor whose lectures drew numerous audience at Kazan University. In spite of the multidimensionality of N. F. Katanov's creative activity one of his main merits is the study and research of culture and ethnic world of the Turkic peoples in South Siberia, Eastern Turkestan and Central Asia. Katanov's collection during four years of his travels (1889-1892) of priceless material such as manuscripts and journal records testifies about it. Later these were published in Sketches of Uryzmkhai land. |
