The paper discusses aspects of the life and work of Russian philosopher and lawyer Spektorsky in Slovenia during the 1930s. Spektorsky was a professor at the Law Faculty of the University of Ljubljana. The study draws chiefly on his unpublished memoirs, stored in the archives of the Institute of Eastern Europe at the University of Bremen, and details the search for this work, long considered lost. Spektorsky’s memoirs include the author’s perceptions of Ljubljana, of its lifestyle and the political and religious life in Slovenia, as well as the distinctive features of the Russian immigrants who taught at the Ljubljana University.
