  Sergius Stepniak - LoveToKnow 1911
SERGIUS STEPNIAK (1852-1895), Russian revolutionist, whose real name was Sergius Michaelovitch Kravchinski, was born in South Russia, of parents who belonged to a noble family.
Stepniak constantly wrote and lectured, both in Great Britain and the United States, in support of his views, and his energy, added to the interest of his personality, won him many friends.
Stepniak was killed by a railway engine at a level crossing at Bedford Park, Chiswick, where he resided, on the 23rd of December 1895.

Stepniak (or Stepnyak), 'Son of the Steppes', was the nom de guerre of Sergius Mikhailovich Kravchinsky.
Sergei Kravchinski, known in 19th century London revolutionary circles as Stepniak, was the Russian who killed the chief of that country's secret police with a dagger in the streets of St Petersburg in 1878.
Stepniak had joined the rising against the Turks in Bosnia in 1876, and used that experience to write a manual on guerrilla warfare.

He was active in Narodnaya Volia [Fremantle says he made friends with Stepniak in that organisation, but in the preceding paragraph and later she says they had not met before his arrival in London].
Stepniak called her "Boolochka" - which does not mean "little doll" as Fremantle says [1] but "little roll" and is an obvious pun on her family name.
Stepniak also became a major influence on her literary work and often wrote introductions for her published books and translations.

Stepniak organized his presentation into three basic parts: Seventh-day Adventists and Diverse Beliefs; Seventh-day Adventists and Music; and Seventh-day Adventists and Jazz.
Stepniak clarified that syncopation, the use of minor keys, and dissonance, all elements which have been controversial in the discussion of sacred music, are present in classical music as well as jazz, and that many commonly heard classical pieces were originally written as tavern songs or some other less-than-sacred purpose.
Stepniak explained that people are often uncomfortable with jazz music because it “incarnates liberty with perversely profound intransigence.” Originating in the African American community, jazz started as a language for people who were exploring their new freedom and their feelings of displacement.

 Marie Dyhrberg Paper: TV or not to TV
According to Stepniak, a lack of public knowledge about the legal system prompted lawyers, judges and the media in the United States to advocate media coverage of trials.
For example, Stepniak states that the Magistrate of the Children's Care Court was initially concerned about a balance of viewpoints in the editing of a documentary "Kids at Risk", "...but is said to have indicated that she was pleased with the program as broadcast...."
Stepniak remarks that "...after taking into account that the televising of much of what happens in court would not guarantee high television ratings, it may well be the case that the courts need television more than television needs the courts."

 13th-Century Papal Letters Returned
Neal Pease, a history professor at the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, handed the box of documents to Wladyslaw Stepniak, deputy head of Poland's National Archives, soon after arriving at Okecie airport in Warsaw.
Stepniak and an archivist accompanying him declined to open the box at the airport to show its contents out of concern for the documents.
The letters, some dating back as far as 1256 and primarily recording real estate transactions, surfaced when a Wisconsin man found them among the belongings of his father, George G. Gavin, a WWII veteran who had brought them home as a souvenir of his wartime service in Europe.

 Underground Russia by Eleanor Marx 1883
The little volume which Stepniak modestly calls a series of “Sketches and Profiles,” is in reality a work of the utmost historical value, for though written by an active Nihilist it is full of just appreciation and critical insight.
In his excellent “Introduction” Stepniak has, in masterly fashion, traced the history of the Socialist — or, as it is improperly called — Nihilist movement from its beginning in 1861 to its latest phase, the “terrorist” phase of to-day.
It is to be regretted that Stepniak’s English translator has allowed the names of the Socialists to appear in their mutilated Italian form.

 Toronto Slavic Quarterly: Ostrovskii on the British stage: 1894 - 1928
Stepniak delivered an address on the Russian Drama, reading the greater part of play called The Thunderstorm, by Astrofski [sic], an extremely powerful work, and pausing now and again to explain some racial or national peculiarity necessary to the understanding of the drama.
The result was far from uninteresting; but in the attempted debate which followed showed that the lecturer had a monopoly in the knowledge of his subject, the irrelevant remarks of the one speaker who ventured to address the meeting not being remarkable either for their courtesy or taste.
Stepniak's desire to use Russian literature as a political tool meant that he emphasised the political aspects of Ostrovskii's work, which undoubtedly had an impact on how his plays were subsequently viewed within Britain.

 Sergius Stepniak on Nihilism and Narodnichestvo
The state of unrest that occasionally manifests itself in other countries is a perennial condition in the great Russian Empire, and is not likely to come to an end there until absolutism abdicates in favor of constitutional government.
The common idea of nihilism confounds it with anarchism; and this chapter, by the famous and mysterious Russian author, Stepniak, is especially timely, in view of the new and apparently more powerful movement to overthrow or modify the government of that empire.
That there should be such a popular view of nihilism is not wonderful, considering that the assassination of the Emperor Alexander II, March 13, 1881, was attributed to the nihilists.

The reader who peruses Stepniak's book without partisan bias is often tempted to doubt the faithfulness of the picture, and to smile at the animation which colors many parts of it.
He contrasts the propagandism of one of his heroes, Dernetrius Kiemens, with that of a young man who died in prison at the age of nineteen, which was "Socratic and searching"; and with that of a lady, which was "passionate and prophetic."
