Dear colleagues, readers, and authors,  

The Editorial Board is pleased to announce the release of Issue No. 2 of 2025 of the Russian Journal of Bakhtin Studies.
The new issue continues the tradition of in-depth interdisciplinary research on the legacy of M. M. Bakhtin.  
All materials of the issue are already available for reading and downloading on our website: https://bakhtiniada.ru  

We wish you enjoyable reading!

Today we celebrate the 130^th anniversary of the birth of Mikhail Bakhtin — a thinker, philosopher, philologist, cultural scholar, and educator whose ideas shaped the trajectory of the humanities in the 20th century.

Dialogue and cultural dialogue, action and responsibility, carnival and ambivalent laughter, polyphony and chronotope — these are the concepts that mark Bakhtin's discoveries, which we would like everyone to understand, not just experts.

Today, our University is hosting the 7^th International Scientific Seminar “Bakhtin in the World of Words,” dedicated to the 130^th anniversary of Mikhail Bakhtin's birth and the 60^th anniversary of the book “The Work of François Rabelais and the Popular Culture of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.”

The conference will be held on October 14–16, 2025.

The conference will focus on modern angles of understanding of M. M. Bakhtin’s philosophical heritage, the importance of his ideas in the development of the humanities, and the thinker’s influence on the study of world and national culture.
