Abstract

I. N. Potapenko’s reminiscences, published here for the first time, cover the initial period of his life in St. Petersburg (from the late 1870s to the early 1880s) when, as a student at both the university and the conservatory, he took his first steps toward a career in literature. The author presents details of student life and describes his interactions with famous writers, including K. M. Stanyukovich, N. F. Bazhin, V. A. Poletika, and others.
