The book's main characters are philomathists: Filaret Filaretovich Filaretov, known as Filo for short, who appreciates fine literature, and Matvey Matveyevich Matveyev, known as Mate, who appreciates only the beauty of mathematics. Filo collects autographs of poets and artists, while Mate collects those of mathematicians and astronomers. Studying science from two seemingly opposite angles, traveling together through different countries and eras, the friends discover that they often hunt for autographs of the same people and ultimately realize that art and science are not at odds with each other, but complement each other well. Readers, along with these two amusing eccentrics, will become acquainted with great scientists, their works and discoveries, and gain a wealth of information on the history of science and culture.
