Klappentext

The book begins with an extensive introduction where many new archival sources are described and analyzed, allowing to considerably augment and refine details of Jochelson's biography. The main section of the book presents a complete annotated list of Jochelson's correspondence (around 350 letters, oiginally in three languages: Russian. German, and English). A preliminary chronology of Jochelson's many travels and addresses follows, based on Jochelson's letters that usually have dates and return addresses carefully indicated. The next section of the book presents an index of archival materials on Jochelson in several Russian and US archives, with exact references to specific coilections and funds. The last two sections of the book provide a complete biography of Jochelson's works (from the first article published in 1893 to posthumous editions o his books), and a seperate list of research works about Jochelson. In the appendix, a shorter version of an earlier article is reprinted which describes the story of Jochelson's failed return from the United States to the Soviet Russia in 1927.
