The paper studies the important aspect of the estate culture of the Russian white clergy - the reading circle, readers’ interests of the clergy representatives. The authors examine the possibilities of different sources (inventories of personal libraries, notes and records on books, compilation manuscripts) for the reconstruction of the clergy’s reading circle. Compiled manuscripts are of special interest as they reflect “the modem literary tastes of the compiler and the reader”. The paper analyses the XIX century manuscript-collection which was owned by a priest of the Vyatka diocese. This collection may be divided conventionally into parts - ecclesiastical and secular. The texts of the ecclesiastical part are connected with the studying of the manuscripts’ owner in the Seminary, and with his practical pastoral activity. The secular part contains poems of the late XVIII - early XIX century Russian poets with different subjects - from sententious to erotic. The literary tastes of the manuscript compiler may be assessed as eclectic. The eclectic was usual for many readers of the age, when a rapid change in literary directions took place.
