Leonid Latynin (Russian: Леонид Александрович Латы́нин; born 1938 Privolzhsk, Ivanovo Region, on the Volga near Plyos) is a Russian writer. He is the husband of literary critic Alla Latynina and the father of writer and journalist Yulia Latynina. Among his first teachers was Pyotr Konstantinovich Sumarokov, a priest's son, who was in his turn a student of Vasily Rozanov. His other teachers were several hundred volumes of theological literature from his family library. In 1960–64, Latynin studied at Moscow University's Department of Philology. He attended the seminars of Nikolai Gudzy, Nikolai Liban, and Sergei Radzig, which made a lasting influence on him, inspiring his interest in the theme of pre-Christian pantheon. This was later realized in his research and his literary work. More information...
