Résumé anglais Inès Müller De Morogues, Leskov's attitude to schismatics. It was unavoidable that Leskov, passionately interested in history and religious problems, should devote his attention to schism which was the subject of fiery polemics between conservatives and radicals in the 1860's. On basis of his personal knowledge of Riga communities without priests and after having investigated their schools, Leskov rejects the theory of the radicals as to the revolutionary potentialities of schism. In this respect, among other arguments, he stresses the profound dissensions that prevent schism from constituting a real social force. On the other hand, while denying the validity and the reasonableness of schism on the religious level, he refuses to minimize its importance and influence and advocates tolerance, creation of schools for schismatics and promulgation of fair laws.
