Summary/Abstract: The article examines the chapter “Sergei Durov and Fyodor Dostoevsky” from the “Siberian Diary” of the Polish revolutionary Jozef Boguslavsky, who was confined in the Omsk prison at the same time as F. M. Dostoevsky. The “Siberian Diary” was included in “Polacy z Wilna i ze Żmudzi na zesłaniu. Pamiętniki Józefa Bogusławskiego i księdza Mateusza Wejta” (“Poles from Vilnius and Zemaitija in exile. The Memoirs of Jozef Boguslavsky and priest Mateusz Veit”). Some fragments of this book and other Polish sources were translated into Russian for the first time by the author of the article, including the recollections about Sergey Durov and Fyodor Dostoevsky. The interrelation between the “Siberian Diary” by Y. Boguslavsky, “Notes from a Dead House” by F. M. Dostoevsky, and S. Tokazhevsky’s “Seven Years of Hard Labor” and “The Convicts” is also analyzed in the paper.
