Russian literary and art magazines. Literary magazines of Russia. Questions of philological sciences

LITERARY JOURNALS IN RUSSIA include literary-artistic, literary-political, critical-bibliographic, historical-literary, satirical, humorous and other magazines. In Russian journalism of the 19th–20th centuries. the most common and successful were literary and political journals, but for journals of a different type of that time, when literature was a kind of “public tribune” (in the words of A.I. Herzen), covert or direct discussion of topical political and social problems was also characteristic. Therefore, the history of Russian literary journals, as well as Russian journalism and periodicals in general, turned out to be closely connected with the political history of the country.

The first Russian journal was Monthly Works for Use and Pleasure (1755-1764), published by the Academy of Sciences: sometimes original and translated poems were published here, but scientific works and academic reports prevailed.

The first proper literary and at the same time the first private journal in Russia is A.P. Sumarokov's Hardworking Bee (1759), most of the materials of which were the works of the publisher himself. The example of Sumarokov was followed by teachers and graduates of the St. Petersburg land gentry corps who participated in the "Hardworking Bee": they began to publish their own magazine - "Idle time, used for the benefit" (1759-1760). In Moscow, the first literary magazines were published at the university: “Useful Entertainment” (1760–1762) and “Free Hours” (1763) by M.M. Kheraskov, “Good Intention” (1764) by V.D. freethinkers was dedicated to the "Innocent exercise" (1763) E.R. Dashkova (in fact, the editor was I.F. Bogdanovich).

In 1769, Catherine II organized the release of the satirical weekly Vsyakaya Vyachina, published as separate leaflets. This type of publication immediately came into vogue: it was followed by “Both and this” (1769) by M.D. Chulkov, “Neither this and that” (1769) by V.G. .F. Rumyantseva and I.A. de Theils, "Mixture" (1769) and "Infernal Mail" (1769) by F.A. Emin, as well as "Drone" (1769-1770), "Ridder" (1770), "Painter" (1772-1773) and “Purse” (1774) by N.I. Novikov, moreover, in the journals of Emin and Novikov, there was a controversy with the complacent view of “All sorts of things” on human weaknesses and the need to eradicate social evils was affirmed. Later, the traditions of satirical journalism were continued by N.I. Strakhov's "Satirical Bulletin" (1790–1792) and I.A. .

In the 1770s–1780s, publications aspiring to instill in the reader a taste for belles-lettres multiplied: “Evenings” (1772) by M.M. Kheraskov, “St. P.A.Plavilshchikova, “Morning Hours” (1788–1789) by I.G. public opinion to the government (the official editor was the president of the Academy, E.R. Dashkova, unofficially, the publication was supervised by Catherine II herself, who regularly posted her writings here). Masonic publications, which were dominated by religious and didactic works, enjoyed great influence: "Morning Light" (1777-1780), "Moscow Monthly Edition" (1781) and "Evening Dawn" (1782) Novikov, "The Rest of the Worker" (1784-1785 ), published by the Friendly Scientific Society at Moscow University, "The Conversing Citizen" (1789) - the organ of the Society of Friends of the Verbal Sciences in St. Petersburg, etc. The first Russian magazine for children "Children's Reading for the Heart and Mind" adjoins them ( 1785-1789) Novikova (editors - N.M. Karamzin and A.A. Petrov). Translated fiction was regularly published on the pages of the entertaining magazine City and Country Library, or Fun and Pleasures of the Mind and Heart in Idle Time... (1782–1786). In the 1780s, the first literary journals appeared in the province: “The Solitary Poshekhonets” (1786–1787) by V.D.

A new word in Russian journalism was the publication of N.M. Karamzin "Moscow Journal" (1791-1792), where, along with poetry and prose, special sections of literary and theatrical reviews were first introduced, and the reader was informed not only about domestic, but also about European literary novelties and theatrical productions (in the early 19th century, reviews departments became an indispensable part of almost any literary journal, and for example, the edition of Karamzinist P.I. Makarov "Moscow Mercury" (1803-1804) was almost exclusively devoted to criticism and bibliography) . Behind the heterogeneous material, the figure of the publisher was clearly visible - a humane, European-educated author, looking at whom, the reader had to learn to feel and think. Karamzin also created the first Russian political journal, in which the literary part remained very significant - Vestnik Evropy (1802–1830; Karamzin himself edited the journal in 1802–1804).

At the beginning of the 19th century many journals, directly or indirectly, were the printed organs of the literary societies that arose at that time. So, under the Free Society of Lovers of Literature, Sciences and Arts, the Scroll of Muses (1802–1803), the Periodical of the Free Society of Lovers of Literature, Sciences and Arts (1804), as well as the Journal of Russian Literature (1805) by N. P. Brusilov, "Northern Messenger" (1804-1805) and "Lyceum" (1806) by I.I. Martynov, "Flower Garden" (1809-1810) by A.I. Benitsky and A.E. Izmailov; at the Conversation of the Lovers of the Russian Word - "Readings in the Conversation of the Lovers of the Russian Word" (1811–1816); under the Free Society of Lovers of Russian Literature - "Competitor of Education and Charity" (1818-1825) and "Nevsky Spectator" (1820-1821). A kind of "home" enterprise, designed for an undemanding public, but at the same time quite popular was "Good-meaning" (1818-1826) by A.E. Izmailov. From the magazines 19th century a long life was destined only for the “Son of the Fatherland” (1812–1852) created in the controversy with the Vestnik Evropy “Son of the Fatherland” (1812–1852) by N.I. 1814). The Russian Messenger (1808–1820, 1824) by S.N. Glinka and Domestic Notes (1818–1830) by P.P. Svinin were also imbued with the spirit of the fight against “gallomania”. An important place in the literary life of the first third of the 19th century, especially in the 1820s, was occupied by almanacs that successfully competed with the journals: Polar Star by K.F. Ryleev and A.A. Bestuzhev, Mnemozin by V.F. Odoevsky and V. K. Kuchelbeker, "Northern Flowers" by A. A. Delvig and O. M. Somov, and many others. others

A new stage in the history of Russian journalism is associated with the formation in the late 1820s and 1830s of mass reader demand, which created the prerequisites for commercial journalism. Commercial publications of the encyclopedic type appear - the so-called "thick magazines", the first of which was the "Moscow Telegraph" (1825-1834) by N.A. Polevoy. It was followed by Moskovsky Vestnik (1827–1830) by M.P. on the second issue, "Library for Reading" (1834-1865), created by O.I. Senkovsky, "Moscow Observer" (1835-1839) and others. .A.Kraevsky, whose fame in the 1840s was created by the articles of V.G. Belinsky (in 1868–1884 the magazine was published by other persons). Less successful were Mayak (1840–1845) by S.K. Burachka, Finnish Herald (1845–1847) by F.K. devoted largely to literary issues, remains the Journal of the Ministry of National Education (1834–1917).

The appearance of magazines in the 1840s and later was largely determined by the views and party preferences of the publishers, therefore, passing from hand to hand, the magazine could change beyond recognition. Such was the fate of Sovremennik, created in 1836 by A.S. Pushkin, until 1846 edited by P.A. Pletnev, who was far from politics, and in 1847-1866 under the direction of N.A. Nekrasov became the center of radical revolutionary criticism and journalism. It is the same with Otechestvennye Zapiski, founded by Kraevsky in 1839, sharply “corrected” after Belinsky left in 1847 and again “turned to the left” in the hands of Nekrasov and M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin (1868–1884). Some old journals were renewed under the same name, but had a completely different direction: for example, Vestnik Evropy (1802-1830, 1866-1918), renewed by M.M. Stasyulevich in 1866 as a moderate-liberal publication.

In the 1850s–1860s, the main type of literary journal finally became a thick journal “with a direction”, which dominated until the beginning of the 20th century. . Magazines that united the radical so-called. "Nihilists", - "Russian Word" (1859-66) and "Delo" (1868-88). Moderate-liberal publication "Bulletin of Europe" by Stasyulevich and others. Slavophile magazines - "Moskvityanin" (1841–1856) by M.P. Pogodin, "Russian conversation" (1856-1860) by A.I. Koshelev and I.S. Aksakov. "Soil" journals of F.M. Dostoevsky "Time" (1861-1863) and "Epoch" (1864-1865) and close to them "Dawn" (1869-1872) V.V. Kashpireva. The “Russian Messenger” (1856–1906) by M.N. Katkov, which published the best examples of Russian prose (including almost all the novels of I.S. Turgenev, F. M. Dostoevsky, L.N. Tolstoy, A.F. Pisemsky, all the major works of N.S. Leskov and many others).

Along with “thick” magazines, satirical journalism also flourished at that time: “Iskra” (1859–1873) by V.S. Kurochkin, “Beep” (1859–1862) by D.D. N.A. Stepanova (in 1873 the magazine was resumed as a humorous one and existed until 1917, in 1881–1887 its editor was A.P. Chekhov) and others. 1860s, a pronounced political trend: “Shards” (1881–1916) by N.A. Leikin and (since 1905) V.V. Bilibin, “Dragonfly” (1875–1908) by I.F. Vasilevsky (since 1879) , "Satyricon" (1908–1914) by A.A. Radakov and A.T. Averchenko, "New Satyricon" (1913) by the same Averchenko and others.

In the 1870s–1890s, journals “with a direction” were represented, in addition to those that had arisen earlier, by the populist and pro-populist journals Russkoye Bogatstvo (1876–1918), Russkaya Mysl (1880–1918), etc.; legal Marxist journals God's World (1892–1906), Sovremenny Mir (1908–1916), Chronicle (1915–1917; founded by M. Gorky) and others; liberal democratic publications, such as the "Journal for All" (1896–1906) by V.S. Mirolyubov and others; magazines of the "protective" direction "Observer" (1882-1901, 1904), "Russian Review" (1890-1898, 1901, 1903), etc. However, less tendentious publications also appeared: for example, an illustrated magazine "for family reading" " Picturesque Review” (1872–1902, 1904–1905). A special place was occupied by the literary and historical journals Russkiy Arkhiv (1863–1917), founded by P.I. Bartenev, and Russkaya Starina (1870–1917), founded by M.I. Semevsky. At the same time, Dostoevsky created an original form of monojournal - "A Writer's Diary" (1876-1877, 1880, 1881), followed by the "Diaries of a Writer" by D.V. Averkiev (1885-1886), A.V. Kruglov (1907 –191 4), F.K. Sologub (1914).

In the beginning. 20th century among the huge number of different types of literary magazines (there were about 400 humorous publications alone), the "aesthetic" publications of artists and symbolist writers "World of Art" (1899-1904), "Scales" (1904-1909), "Golden Fleece" (1906) stood out -1909), "Apollo" (1909-1917), etc.

The revolution of 1917 and the civil war became a milestone in the history of literary journals in Russia. From that time until 1990, literature and journalism were controlled by the state. Literary journals are established with the approval of the government, more often at its direction.

Krasnaya Nov (1921-1942), organized by A.K. Voronsky (headed the magazine until 1927), became the first Soviet literary and artistic publication in the style of pre-revolutionary "thick" magazines. It was followed by the Young Guard (1922–1941, since 1948), Oktyabr (since 1924), Zvezda (since 1924), and Novy Mir (since 1925), which still exist to this day. In the 1920s, a number of critical-bibliographic and literary-theoretical journals were published, serving various literary groups - supporters (of varying degrees of radicalism) of "proletarian art" ("On the post", 1923-1925; "On the literary post", 1926-1932) , futurists who were part of the literary association "Left Front of the Arts" ("LEF", 1923-1925; "New LEF", 1927-1929 - both edited by V.V. Mayakovsky) and others. The most significant critical and bibliographic edition of this period was the journal "Print and Revolution" (1921-1930), often representing an official, but at the same time rather moderate point of view (V.P. Polonsky was the executive editor). The journals Literature and Marxism (1928–1931) by V.M. Friche and V.F. Pereverzev and RAPP (1931–1932) were mainly devoted to literary and theoretical issues. A remarkable achievement of the 1920s–1930s was the publication of magazines for children: Murzilka (since 1924), Pioneer (since 1924), Hedgehog (1928–1935), Chizh (1930–1941) and others.

The struggle of literary associations of the 1920s was stopped by the party resolution "On the restructuring of literary and artistic organizations" (1932) and the creation of the Writers' Union of the USSR (1934). The party line was explained in the specially created critical and bibliographic journals Literary Study (1930–1941) and Literary Critic (1933–1940), to which the Literary Review was published as an appendix. For the needs of the school, the journal Literature at School was published (1936–1941, since 1946). Achievements of socialism was devoted to the "journal of artistic essay", created by M. Gorky, "Our Achievements" (1929-1936). From 1931, the thick magazine Znamya began to appear, originally intended for the Red Army and Navy. Literary magazines are being actively created in the provinces and on the national outskirts.

A new surge in the development of Soviet journalism falls on the time of the so-called. "thaw". Cm. THE LITERATURE OF THE THAW. At this time, new journals appeared: Foreign Literature (since 1955), Youth (since 1955), Friendship of Peoples (since 1955, published irregularly as an almanac since 1939), Neva (since 1955), Moscow "(since 1957)," Our Contemporary "(since 1964, irregularly published as an almanac since 1956). Some of the journals that emerged in the 1920s but reached the peak of popularity in the 1950s and 1960s are undergoing a serious reorganization. There are specialized literary journals Voprosy Literatury (since 1957) and Russian Literature (since 1958) and many thick magazines in the regions: Don (Rostov-on-Don, since 1957, published irregularly as an almanac since 1946), Ural (Sverdlovsk, since 1958) and others. Later, a number of magazines appeared in the provinces: Sever (Petrozavodsk, since 1965), Volga (Saratov, since 1966), and others. Since 1969, the Avrora magazine has been published in Leningrad.

In the 1970s, in connection with the party resolution "On Literary and Artistic Criticism" (1972), the critical and bibliographic journals Literary Review (since 1973) and Literary Studies (since 1978) were revived.

“Thick” magazines were very popular in the perestroika era of 1985 and early 1990s, when they discussed social problems and previously banned works were published. Unprecedented excitement was caused by the so-called. "returned literature": Russian émigré writers of the first, second and third wave. Of great interest were publications that revised the official historical concept, and works of art on historical topics (especially from the Stalin era). Gradually, however, the public's attention was largely diverted by contemporary political news and events.

The newest period in the history of journalism begins in 1990-1991, when it becomes possible to publish private journals. But at the same time, the authority of literature itself is falling, and the circle of readers of literary, especially the once so popular, once thick magazines is sharply narrowing. Of the publications that emerged in the 1990s, one can single out Continent (since 1990, published in Paris since 1974), New Literary Review (since 1992), which combines the latest literature and literary criticism, New Youth (since 1993), "Arion" (since 1994) is a journal of modern poetry, which publishes poetry, poetic prose, translations, essays, archival materials, and literary articles.
