Summary/Abstract: The article reports on the view on “Domostroy” presented in the pre-revolutionary works of Kazan scientists I.Ya. Porfiriev, S.P. Shestakov and A.S. Arkhangelsky. Unfortunately, their papers are not considered in the national literary criticism while investigating Old Russian works. A conclusion is made that Porfiriev and Shestakov carefully studied “Domostroy” and contributed a lot to the perception of the 16th century monument, revealed its universal meaning, and anticipated contemporary researches in many respects. The point of view of Arkhan-gelsky on “Domostroy” seems to be unreasoned, and his underestimation of the work is probably due to the fact that this monument was never the subject of his special study.
