Abstract: The article deals with the problems of the formation of Russian geolinguistics and linguocartography and the use of dialect units and phenomena in maps. The article considers the activity of the Moscow Dialectological Commission (MDC), established on January 21, 1904. It is noted that the famous linguist F. E. Korsh was its first chairman, after whose death in 1915 it was headed by D. N. Ushakov. The activity of the MDC was constantly covered in publications of various journals and collections. A series of papers on the study and collection of dialectal material was published in the Warsaw “Russian Philological Bulletin”. The Russian dialectologi- cal map was compiled in 1914, and in 1915 the book “Experience of creating a dialectological map of the Russian language in Europe with an appendix of an essay about Russian Dialectology” was published, the authors of which were members of the MDC N. N. Durnovo, N. N. Sokolov and D. N. Ushakov. This work put the researchers among the leading Russian dialectologists. Dmitry Nikolaevich Ushakov was an outstanding Russian linguist who contributed much to various areas of Russian linguistics. The scientific Russian dialectology, geolinguistics, and linguocartography actually begin with the work of this outstanding scholar and his colleagues. The principles he developed for describing dialectal phenomena, their fixation on maps, and classification of dialects remain relevant today. A galaxy of linguists brought up by him continued to develop the ideas of the teacher. Modern Russian linguistics remembers not only the grandiose “Ushakov’s” dictionary, but also the works of Ushakov in other areas of scientific research. Everyone who knew Dmitry Nikolaevich noted his deep decency, kindness, passion for business, and versatile creative abilities. Modern Russian dialectology continues to comprehend and develop the ideas of the great scholar. And in the Lexical Atlas of Russian Territorial Dialects, which is being developed now, one can feel the continuation of Ushakov’s creative search. The article examines the little-known and previously unknown publications of Ushakov and his close colleagues.
