Bogdanovichi-Evgenia Vasilyevich (1829-1914) and his wife Alexander Viktorovna (1846-1914)-knew all of Petersburg. General Bogdanovich, an official of the Ministry of the Interior, a secret adviser, the head of the Isaac"s Cathedral, a zealous monarchist, a publisher and publicist, was the master of a famous political salon who existed for more than half a century-from the 1860s almost until the First World War. "Countless ties and acquaintances did an imperceptibly my house with a prefabricated place of everything that has a patriotic in our country ... I all have, meet, converge, argue, have breakfast at one table and exchange information, thoughts, wishes ... not a single event , more or less worthy of attention, will not pass my house, and there is not a single newspaper that would not lag behind the conversations" from General Bogdanovich "".
As a result of this, Bogdanovichi were very informed people, and Alexander Viktorovna for many years kept a diary, where she neatly and carefully entered a lot of what she heard from guests - ministers, governors, military leaders, employees of the palace department, church hierarchs, diplomats, journalists , merchants, deputies, etc. Its records (political, secular, domestic nature) located in the Russian State Historical Archive in St. Petersburg are calculated by hundreds. Diaries covering events from 1879 to 1912 (with bills and without notebooks for 1882-1887, which were probably lost) were first published under the name of the last three autocrats in 1924. Since then, it is difficult to find an author who writes about the last years of the empire, who would not refer to the notes of Generali Bogdanovich
