A Soviet orientalist. He graduated from St. Petersburg University in 1914 and went to Japan to study the following year, but stayed in Japan due to the Russian Revolution. He taught at Otaru Higher Commercial School and Osaka School of Foreign Studies, while studying Japanese folklore, the Ainu language, the Miyakojima dialect, the language of the Tsou people (Taiwan), and the Xixia (Tangut) language. During this time, he formed friendships with Kunio Yanagita, Shinobu Orikuchi, and Juntaro Ishihama (1888-1968). In the autumn of 1929 (Showa 4), he returned to the Soviet Union and became a professor at Leningrad University. He welcomed a Japanese woman, Iso Yorozuya (1901-1937), whom he had married while in Japan, and opened up new frontiers in Xixia language research and other fields. However, in the autumn of 1937, he was arrested during a "purge" and shot to death. He was rehabilitated in 1957. He was awarded the Lenin Prize in 1962 for his posthumous collection of writings, "Xixia Linguistics" (1960). [Katsuo Kato July 20, 2018] "The Moon and Immortality" by N.
