The article deals with the problem of the relationship between various reading strategies by the
censor and ideas about his social role during the pre-reform era of the late 1850s. The authors
explore on the one hand the curious history of the journal publication of essays by P.M. Kovalevskij,
a nephew of the minister of public education, in 1858, which is reconstructed on the basis of
censorship documents, and on the other hand the colourful review by P.A. Efremov. Thus they
demonstrate the difficulties I.A. Gončarov as a censor was faced with, who, being forced to
remain in the confines of the persistent censorship practices of “petty”, “hypercritical” reading,
tried to reform them in accordance with the new circumstances and his literary persuasions.
