Summary/Abstract: School exercise books constitute one of the most original sources for the historians of education who focus on the teaching of literacy skills. This article aims at analysing a sample of Russian school exercise books in order to study some new aspects of the history of Russian schooling, by focusing on the writing exercises of two of Tolstoy’s pupils (1861) and on some compositions by children from the Tsarist schools of Kiev, Černigov and Tula (1910–16).
