N1 - Funding Information: For citation: Baryshnikov V.N., Borisenko V.N., Chepik V.N., Plath T. Scandinavistics by the Prominent Russian Historian Professor Vozgrin. Vestnik of Saint Petersburg University. History, 2020, vol. 65, issue 3, рp. 990–1005. https://doi.org/10.21638/11701/spbu02.2020.318 The article describes the life path and analyzes academic achievements of a prominent Russian scholar, historian, member of the Danish Royal Academy of Sciences, professor of the Institute of History of St. Petersburg State University Valery Evgenyevich Vozgrin (1939–2020). The works of V. E. Vozgrin are well known in all Scandinavian countries, Germany, Italy, Spain, Estonia and other countries. The authors of the article highlight three main areas in his study of the history of the Scandinavian countries: first — the history of diplomacy and international relations of the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly, the diplomacy during the Great Northern War; second — the colonial policy of the countries such as Denmark and Sweden, which has never been researched by domestic historians; third — historiographic direction in the study of Scandinavian countries, which has never been developed on such a large scale in Russia before. Moreover, the analysis of a number of large historiographical works of the researcher clearly indicates an original style of the author in considering some little-known and very complex historiographic problems. The article concludes that the research base established by Vladimir N.Baryshnikov — Doctor in History, Professor, St. Petersburg State University, 7–9, Universitetskaya nab., St. Petersburg, 199034, Russian Federation; v.baryshnikov@spbu.ru Владимир Николаевич Барышников — д-р ист. наук, проф., Санкт-Петербургский государ-ственный университет, Российская Федерация, 199034, Санкт-Петербург, Университетская наб., 7–9; v.baryshnikov@spbu.ru Victor N.Borisenko — PhD in History, Associate Professor, St. Petersburg State University, 7–9, Universitetskaya nab., St. Petersburg, 199034, Russian Federation; v.borisenko@spbu.ru Виктор Николаевич Борисенко — канд. ист. наук, доц., Санкт-Петербургский государствен-ный университет, Российская Федерация, 199034, Санкт-Петербург, Университетская наб., 7–9; v.borisenko@spbu.ru Victor N.Chepik — PhD in History, Senior Lecturer, St. Petersburg State University, 7–9, Universitet-skaya nab., St. Petersburg, 199034, Russian Federation; v.chepik@spbu.ru Виктор Николаевич Чепик — канд. ист. наук, ст. преп., Санкт-Петербургский государствен-ный университет, Российская Федерация, 199034, Санкт-Петербург, Университетская наб., 7–9; v.chepik@spbu.ru Tilman Plath — PhD, Researcher, Ernst Moritz Arndt University of Greifswald, 2, Rubenow str., Greifswald, 17487, Federal Republic of Germany; platht@uni-greifswald.de Тильман Плат — PhD, науч. сотр., Грайфсвальдский университет им.
