I agree with Volodya. I can't recall anything negative VN said or wrote about Mirsky.

It is really odd. Nabokov highly appreciated D.Mirsky's History. I can't recall any negativity towards him.
Plus "merzky" is not in active vocabulary of Nabokov.

Dear List!
Does anybody remember the source of the following Nabokov's words: "merzky Mirsky"? (D. Mirsky was a Russian emigre literary scholar and the author of great "The History of Russian Literature" who left his position at Oxford, returned to the Soviet Russia and perished in a prison or camp).
Sincerely yours,
