Zakharov was a Russian diplomat, working in the Peking Orthodox Mission 1839-1850. He assisted with the 1851 Treaty of Kulja (Ghulja \u063a\u06c7\u0644\u062c\u0627, Yining \u4f0a\u5b81, in Ili Prefecture \u4f0a\u7281) \u4e2d\u4fc4\u4f0a\u7281\u5854\u723e\u5df4\u54c8\u81fa\u901a\u5546\u7ae0\u7a0b<\/a> which opened for border trade. Zakharov later became a professor of Manchu studies at Saint Petersburg Imperial University (now Saint Petersburg State University).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zakharov’s dictionary<\/a> was one of the first Manchu dictionaries available to a Western audience. Manchu studies declined as its own field after the fall of the Qing dynasty, but has seen a revival in recent years as knowledge of Manchu language is relevant for Qing historical studies. Manchu studies never really developed in Sweden, but thanks to maybe Bernhard Karlgren (although he left Gothenburg in 1939 when this book was published), or more likely one of his students we own a copy. The National Library of Sweden does not have the Complete Manchu-Russian Dictionary<\/em>, but copies are kept at British Library, Biblioth\u00e8que nationale de France and Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin among a handful other libraries in Europe. If you want to learn more about Manchu I suggest to contact the Manchu Studies Group<\/a>. Manchu is only spoken as first language by a handful of people today, but thousands have been learning it as a second or third language in China in recent years. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
