The author of the published "Diaries" Maria Lvovna Kazem-Bek, nee Tolstaya (1855-1918), is a prominent Orthodox teacher, head of the Institute of noble girls in Kazan and St. Petersburg. Its records are covered by several decades of the XIX century and the beginning of the XX century, reflecting the era of the reign of Alexander II, Alexander III and the Holy Martyr Nicholas II. The author draws portraits and gives the characteristics of many statesmen, court dignitaries and church hierarchs, figures of science and culture. On this historical background, the story of the life of your own family unfolds. A convinced champion of a single and indivisible Russia, the symphony of autocracy and the church, M.L. Kazem-bek judges everything as a deeply believing Christian. Its image is striking in the depths of the Orthodox perception, the subtlety of patriotic feeling, the height of the aristocratic spirit, vivid literary talent. All this allows us to talk about the exceptional significance, ideological and artistic value of the "diaries", provided by the publisher, Prince Zurabm Mikhailovich Chavchavadze - the great -grandson of the author.
