Given the restrictions on political action and even political
discussion in Russia, Russian literary journals have served as the
principal means by which Russia discovered, defined and shaped
itself. Every issue of importance for literate Russians - social,
economic, literary - made its appearance in one way or another on
the pages of these journals, and virtually every major Russian
novel of the nineteenth century was first published there in serial
form. Literary Journals in Imperial Russia - a collection of essays
by leading scholars, originally published in 1998 - was the first
work to examine the extraordinary history of these journals in
imperial Russia. The major social forces and issues that shaped
literary journals during the period are analysed, detailed accounts
are provided of individual journals and journalists, and
descriptions are offered of the factors that contributed to their
success.
