Aleksey Stepanovich Khomyakov, co-founder of the Slavophile movement
This is a list of 19th-century Russian Slavophiles:
Slavophilia is an intellectual movement originating from the 19th century that wanted the Russian Empire to be developed upon values and institutions derived from its early history. Slavophiles were especially opposed to the influences of Western Europe in Russia.[1] There were also similar movements in Poland, Hungary and Greece.
Konstantin Sergeyevich Aksakov (Russian: Константин Серге́евич Аксаков) (1817–1860) was a Russian critic and writer, one of the earliest and most notable Slavophiles. He wrote plays, social criticism, and histories of the ancient Russian social order.[2] His father Sergey Aksakov and sister Vera Aksakova were writers, and his younger brother Ivan Aksakov was a journalist.
Aleksey Stepanovich Khomyakov (Алексей Степанович Хомяков) (May 1, 1804, Moscow – September 23/25, 1860) was a Russian religious poet who co-founded the Slavophile movement along with Ivan Kireevsky, and became one of its most distinguished theoreticians.
Mikhail Petrovich Pogodin (Russian: Михаил Петрович Погодин, 1800, Moscow - 1875) was a Russian historian and journalist who dominated the national historiography between the death of Nikolay Karamzin in 1826 and the rise of Sergey Solovyov in the 1850s. He is best remembered as a staunch proponent of the Normanist theory of Russian statehood. In 1841 Pogodin joined his old friend Stepan Shevyrev in editing Moskovityanin, a periodical which came to voice the Slavophile opinions. In the course of the following fifteen years of editing, Pogodin and Shevyrev steadily slid towards the most reactionary form of Slavophilism.
Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev (Russian: Фёдор Ива́нович Тю́тчев; December 5 [O.S. November 23] 1803 - July 27 [O.S. July 15] 1873) is generally considered the last of three great Romantic poets of Russia, following Alexander Pushkin and Mikhail Lermontov. Politically, he was a militant Slavophile, who never needed a particular reason to berate the Western powers, Vatican, Ottoman Empire, or Poland, perceived by him as Judas of pan-Slavic interests. The failure of the Crimean War made him look critically at the Russian government.
