Evgeny Vasilyevich Anichkov was born on January 2, 1866 in Borovichi, Novgorod, Russian Federation in a family of a staff-captain of a rifle battalion.
In 1878 Evgeny Vasilyevich moved to Saint Petersburg where he attended Saint Petersburg Gymnasium №6 and Gymnasium №2.
In 1886 Evgeny Vasilyevich enrolled at the Saint Petersburg Univeristy and in December of 1887 was expelled. From 1887 to 1889 served in the army in Ukraine and in 1889 he was readmitted at the University in Saint Petersburg.
Evgeny Vasilyevich taught at the Bestuzhev Courses for women, as well as the Saint Petersburg University where in 1902-1917 he was the head of the Western Literatures department.
A respected Shakespearean scholar, Evgeny Vasilyevich regularly visited Great Britain (where at Oxford University he read lectures on Slavic folklore and Russian mythology), as well as France. In Paris, with Maksim Kovalevsky, he co-founded the Russian High School of Social Studies.
The 1917 Revolution found him in France where he stayed for a while before moving in 1918 to Yugoslavia, to lecture at the Belgrade and Skopje Universities. His book The New Russian Poetry (Новая русская поэзия), an extensive survey of the book on Russian Symbolism, Acmeism and Futurism, came out in Berlin in 1923. It was followed by Christianity and Ancient Rus (Христианство и Древняя Русь, Prague, 1924).
