         ♦...В лице Чернышевского был осужден его - очень похожий - призрак; вымышленную вину чудно подгримировали под настоящую (Набоков 1)....In Chernyshevski's person they condemned a phantasm closely resembling him; an invented guilt was wonderfully rigged up to look like the real one (1a).
         ♦ Я поступлю в институт и стану потом инженером или учителем. Но в моем лице люди потеряют великого путешественника (Казаков 2). All right, I'd finish the tenth class and enter the institute and become an engineer or a teacher. But in me they were losing a great explorer (2a).

    - from the direction of.
         ♦ Ему в голову не могло прийти, что у них гости и что ржание коня доносится со стороны микулицынского крыльца, из сада (Пастернак 1). It never occurred to him that they had guests or that the neighing came from the direction of Mikulitsyn's house (1a).
    2. со стороны смотреть, наблюдать, видно и т.п. [adv]
    (to look at s.o. or sth., be visible etc) from some distance away:
    - from a distance.
         ♦ На солнечном пригреве, на камне, ниже садовой скамейки, сидел Костоглотов... И даже не видно было со стороны, чтобы плечи его поднимались и опускались от дыхания (Солженицын 10).

         ♦ Конечно, обидно: маловато успел. Со стороны может показаться, что вовсе не так. Я и то, и это, пятое, десятое. Но уж я-то знаю, что чепуха (Трифонов 5). It was humiliating, of course. I had accomplished very little. From an outsider's point of view it might not appear that way. I've done this, that, and a number of things. But I myself know how little it has all amounted to (5a).
         ♦ В том-то и дело, что если рассказать с некоторой правдивостью любую жизнь со стороны и хотя бы отчасти изнутри, то картинка наша будет такова, что этот человек дальше жить не имеет ни малейшей возможности (Битов 2). That's just the point, that if we tell the story of any life with a degree of truthfulness, from an outside viewpoint and at least partially from within, then the picture will be such that the man hasn't the slightest chance of living on (2a).
         ♦...Она [жена Огарёва] сама сказала мне впоследствии, что сцена эта показалась ей натянутой, детской. Оно, пожалуй, и могло так показаться со стороны; но зачем же она смотрела со стороны?..

         ♦ Он [Эренбург] на всё смотрел как бы со стороны - что ему оставалось делать после "Молитвы о России"? - и прятался в ироническое всепонимание (Мандельштам 2). Не [Ehrenburg] seemed to view everything with great detachment-what else could he do after his Prayer for Russia? - and took refuge in a kind of ironical knowingness (2a).
    4. человек, люди и т.п. - [nonagreeing postmodif]

         ♦ В деревне не хватало мужчин, и председателю пришлось нанять рабочих со стороны. There weren't enough men in the village, so the chairman had to hire outsiders.

    - by s.o.
         ♦ [Бутон:] Так что вы говорите, милостивый государь? Что наш король есть самый лучший, самый блестящий король во всём мире? С моей стороны возражений нет (Булгаков 8). [В.:] So what are you saying, dear sir? That our king is the very best, the most brilliant king in the whole world? For my part I have no objections (8a).
         ♦...Тут было много и простодушия со стороны Мити, ибо при всех пороках своих это был очень простодушный человек (Достоевский 1)....There was much simple-heartedness on Mitya's part, for with all his vices this was a very simple-hearted man (1a).
         ♦ "Да где ж это видано, чтобы народ сам по себе собирался без всякого контроля со стороны руководства?" (Войнович 2). "Who ever heard of people assembling all by themselves, without any control on the part of the leadership?" (2a).
         ♦ "...Примите в соображение, что ошибка возможна ведь только со стороны первого разряда, то есть "обыкновенных" людей..." (Достоевский 3). "...You must take into consideration the fact that a mistake can be made only by a member of the first class, that is, by the 'ordinary' people..." (3a).

    - (how generous <it's not nice, that's not fair etc>) of s.o. (to do sth.).
         ♦ Это очень плохо с его стороны - оставить нас наедине. Никогда не ожидал я от него такого предательства! (Казаков 2). That's not nice of him - to leave us alone. I never expected such treachery from him (2a).
         ♦ "Ну вот видишь, вот уж и нечестно с твоей стороны: слово дал, да и на попятный двор" (Гоголь 3). "There, you see, that's not fair of you: you have given me your word of honor, and now you are going back on it" (3c).

         ♦ "Стригуны" молчали; они понимали, что слова Собачкина очень последовательны и что со стороны логики под них нельзя иголки подточить (Салтыков-Щедрин 2). The "colts" were silent; for they realized that Sobachkin's words were very logical and that, from the point of view of pure logic, they were absolutely unassailable (2a).
    8. со стороны кого, чьей, какой [Prep; the resulting PrepP is adv]
    used to indicate a line of familial descent:
