发现普列特尼约夫——作为《现代人》杂志主编的教育家身份

Discovering Pletnev——Educator Identity as the Editor in Chief of Magazine The Contemporary

普列特尼约夫作为《现代人》杂志第二任主编,其主持九年的《现代人》在思想激荡的19世纪40年代被认为是“远离争论”“旁观社会”“脱离文学生活”,而在文学史、杂志史的叙述中均“被省略”,主编及其《现代人》的独特价值被忽视。实际上,他不仅主持《现代人》杂志,而且还有丰富的文学事业和教育生涯——先后在宫廷(给亚历山大皇储和皇室)和多所高校讲授俄语语言和文学,又担任彼得堡大学校长20余年(1840—1861),其时正值外部欧洲革命,国内大改革前社会浪潮涌动的时代,他不仅保障了学校的平稳运行,还留下了大量珍贵的俄国教育文献,也是不可忽略的教育家。

Pletnev had worked as the second editor in chief of magazine The Contemporary for nine years,but the magazine isn’t“mentioned”in the history of literature and of magazine because it was seen as“the faraway departure of debate”,“the onlooker of society”and“the separation of literary lives”in 1840s,a period full of agitating thoughts.The unique value of The Contemporary and his contribution as the editor in chief are ignored.In fact,he not only had taken charge of The Contemporary for nine years,but also did abundant literary activities and held an educational career——teaching Russian language and literature(for Alexsandr’s tzarevich and imperial household)in the court and many colleges and universities,and serving as the president of Petersburg University for twenty years(1840—1861),when European Revolution was outside and the swarming social tide before Great Reform was inside.In this period,Pletnev not only guaranteed the stable operation of University,but also left multitudes of precious Russian educational documents.It is he who is the non-negligible educator.
