Researchers suggest that in the middle of the 1830s the relationship between Sollogub and Pushkin developed beyond secular acquaintance, which explains Vladimir's participation in "Otechestvennye Zapiski." Even after Pushkin was deceased, Sollogub still remained in the "circle of Pushkin". This fact can be confirmed by his publications in “Sovremennik” (“Two Students”, Russian: “Два Студента”, 1838), in “Literary addition to the ‘Russian Invalid’” (“Seryozha”, Russian: “Сережа”, 1838; it was warmly received by the public, including Vissarion Belinsky), and in the renewed "Otechestvennye Zapiski."
