An experienced, erudite reader will, of course, be familiar with the name Georgy Gachev. Theoretical books on literature and aesthetics are familiar, works exploring national images of the world are familiar, cultural studies are familiar. We offer new excerpts from “Life Thoughts,” the diary of G. Gachev, which he has been keeping for several decades and with parts of which readers may have already become familiar according to other publications. Georgy Gachev defined the genre of his diary as follows: “... that work is the philosophy of everyday life as being.” “Ural Pathfinder” No. 7, 1992.
