Photo of Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin
#2
A photograph of the writer, editor and publicist Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin in a carved wooden frame stands on the table in Dmitry Mamin-Sibiryak’s study. Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin became a teacher and an example for the Ural author, even though they met only once in their lives.

The writers met in 1877 in St. Petersburg, in the editorial office of the magazine “Patriotic Notes” [“Otechestvennye Zapiski”], where Saltykov-Shchedrin was chief editor. Mamin-Sibiryak was 25 years old at the time, and he just started publishing his works. The writer brought one of his early unfinished manuscripts to the publishing house. According to recollections, Saltykov-Shchedrin returned the text to him and said: “We do not accept such things.”

Back then, Mamin-Sibiryak wrote that he had been “obfuscated”, but the rejection made him work even harder. Five years later, in October 1882, he sent to the “Patriotic Notes” [“Otechestvennye Zapiski”] his essay “Zolotukha”. The editorial board accepted it for publication. The writer shared the news with his brother Vladimir Mamin:

Volodka, rejoice! Cheer, jump and be merry! Today I’ve received a letter from Saltykov himself, saying that my essay “Zolotukha” was willingly accepted by the editors of the “Otechestvennye Zapiski”. I have never wished for more and do not wish for more.

Then, Dmitry Mamin-Sibiryak published in the magazine an essay “Fighters”. Since then, the editor Saltykov-Shchedrin began to be more attentive to the writer: instead of brief replies, he began to send letters in which he shared with him the news and wrote about editorial difficulties.

In 1884, the magazine “Patriotic Notes” [“Otechestvennye zapiski”] was closed. But the correspondence and friendship between the editor and the author continued.

I’m going to go to St. Petersburg in the first days of December to negotiate with publishers to see the elder Mikhail Evgrafovich.
Mamin-Sibiryak wrote to his mother

In 1889, Saltykov-Shchedrin died. On June 6, the fortieth day after his death, a funeral service was held in the Ascension Church in Yekaterinburg. It was attended by local writers, actors, and directors. It is not known for certain whether Dmitry Mamin-Sibiryak was there. But researchers suggest that he attended the service to honor the memory of the friend and mentor.
