Abstract
This study describes the characteristic features of Annenkov's literary criticism. Pavel V. Annenkov (1813–1887) was one of the key opponents of the concepts of literary criticism proposed by the radical democrats. He used to be regarded as a strong advocate of the aesthetic qualities of literature, which, in his opinion, could not be superseded by discussions about political or social issues. However, his assessment of literary works can not only be reduced to an aesthetic point of view. The author reports that in his literary criticisms Annenkov also puts emphasis on harmony and on moral viewpoint and thus he adjusts prevailing simplified perception of Annenkov as a literary critic. The study draws parallels between Annenkov's aesthetic and artistic views and the then-current Russian liberal thinking and shows that the influence of European liberalism on the Russian society can also be found outside the sphere of politics.
