Thanks the fascinating notes about
Likhachev's connexion with Nabokov.
I'm spending the week in Moldova training local journalists and I saw on
Russian television one evening a long programme devoted to Likhachev.
Spliced between live televised broadcasts of long lines of people paying
tribute to Likhachev's mortal remains were excerpts from interviews with
the great historian, choirs singing Russian Orthodox funebral music, and
commentary from people who knew Likhachev. The final part of the
Likkhachev tribute showed scenes from Petersburg and ended with a view of
the Admiralty Spire and the Neva River at sunset with Russian Orthodox
music in the background.
