In 1954, the renowned linguist Roman Jakobson wrote to his fellow émigré, the eminent Orthodox priest Father Georges Florovsky, about a personal matter: the dissolution of a long-term romantic relationship with his former graduate student, Justinia Besharova. Besharova would eventually end the relationship to marry the linguist David Djaparidze. The letters illuminate a difficult period in Jakobson's life as much as they demonstrate the previously unknown closeness of the two émigrés.
