He entered two faculties of Petersburg University simultaneously in 1895 - the Oriental Faculty and Faculty of History and Philology - but was expelled and exiled for participating in student disturbances in 1899. He was arrested several times for his involvement in revolutionary organisations. Back in St. Petersburg in 1903, he graduated from the Faculty of History and Philology as an external student. He was one of the editors of Byloe and Minuvshie Gody magazines published in 1906-07 and 1908, respectively. He resumed publishing Byloe in 1917, issuing it until 1925. He wrote works on the history of the revolutionary movement, Russian literature, Pushkin studies, etc. including Pushkin's Duel and Death in 1916.

He was a member of the board at the Petrograd Department of the Main Archive from 1919 and department manager at the State Archive Collection from 1920. He was also one of the founders of the Museum of the Revolution now known as the Museum of Political History of Russia. His collections of documents included dozens of thousands of autographs, letters, leaflets, etc. and are now kept in a number of state archives.
