Both Slavophils and Westerners favored emancipation of the Russian serfs, which was finally achieved in 1861. In this crucial reform, the SlavophilsIu. F. Samarin in particular played a leading role. Since the beginning of glasnost and perestroika, Slavophilism has been experiencing a revival in the Soviet Union expressed in a number of ways, including the announced republication of the works of A. S. Khomiakov and I. V. Kireevsky. The original Slavophil circle included these two senior Slavophils as well as K. S. Aksakov and Samarin (18191876).

Endowed with an exceptional mind and character, he was fluent in several languages and attracted attention while still a young student at Moscow University.
