Annotation	The article presents the chronology of L. I. Mechnikov’s activity as a Japanese culture researcher. For the first time the full bibliography of his works devoted to Japan is listed. A brief analysis of his basic work «Japanese Empire» is given to bring the base for further and more detailed research within the limits of the article. Absence of such complete research does not allow to fully estimate Mechnikov’s activity as a scientist-japanist and to understand sources of his sociological concepts and his philosophy of history.
Key words	Mechnikov, Japan, history, geography, ethnography, anthropology, sociology
