This paper shows the influence of Russian Orientalismo in the kurdish culture and language. Experts as Zaba, Nikitine, Lirij and Velyaminov made an effort to make available their Studies on the kurdish people.
They approach different fields of study: linguistics, literature, ethnography, etc.
However, this paper focuses on the figure of the well known Russian orientalist Margaret Rudenco. Due to her effort a number of Kurdish manuscripts were kept in the libraries in Leningrad, currently San Petersburg.
The interest for the Kurdish people gave birth to multiple research studies.
This paper starts with a brief introduction to Russian Orientalism and its influence in the Kurdish heritage. Then the paper introduces the life and work by Margaret Rudenco.
