Life
Jadrinzew was the son of a merchant family. He finished high school in Tomsk and then enrolled as a guest student at the University of Saint Petersburg , where he stayed from 1860 to 1862. In Petersburg he was one of the co-organizers of an association of Siberian students. In the autumn of 1863 he returned to Siberia and devoted himself to political and literary activities. In May 1865 he was arrested along with other advocates of a stronger Siberian identity and in 1868 exiled to a prison camp in Schenkursk . In 1873 Yadrintsev was pardoned and moved to Petersburg again. There he was from 1876 to 1881 civil servant under the governor general of Western Siberia Nikolai Gennadjewitsch Kasnakow , so he was mainly concerned with the establishment of a university in Siberia . Jadrinzew had been active as a journalist since 1861, from 1882 to 1894 he was finally editor and publisher of the magazine Восточное образѣние (about: Ostliche Rundschau ). In 1891 he supported the measures against a famine and cholera epidemic in the south of the Tobolsk province.
Yadrintsev dedicated his scientific activities to the exploration of Siberia and its neighboring regions. He carried out a number of expeditions to the Altai and Mongolia , where in 1889 he succeeded in entering the ruins of the ancient capital Karakoram . In this role he published several monographs and around 200 articles. In his work, Jadrintsev advocated the colonization of Siberia, called for the government to support the peasants who had moved to Siberia, and condemned the development of capitalist relationships. He called for the abolition of the Siberian penal camps and believed in the possibility of re-education of offenders.
