The first scientific publications on the history of Russia

prototype scientific journals in Russia became Monthly Historical, Genealogical and Geographical Notes in the Vedomosti (published in 1728-1742) - a monthly supplement to the newspaper St. Petersburg Vedomosti, published by the Academy of Sciences, edited by G.F. Miller. In 1755-1765. The first popular science magazine in Russia, Monthly Works for the Benefit and Entertainment of Employees, was published, introducing readers to the achievements of science, including historical science. In 1773-1775. writer N.I. Novikov published in St. Petersburg a multi-volume periodical collection (10 volumes were published) “Ancient Russian Vifliofika (i.e., a library - Auth.) or A collection of various ancient works”, which is considered the forerunner of special historical journals. In 1788-1791. the collection was republished in Moscow in 20 volumes.

The emergence of special scientific and historical periodicals is associated with the activities of circles and societies created at universities. So, the Free Russian Assembly, formed at the Imperial Moscow University in 1771, published "Experiences of Labor", in which historical ones were published. "Society of History and Russian at Moscow University" (OIDR) published in 1815-1937. the first time-based scientific and historical publication "Notes and Works", in which for the first time many primary sources of the ancient history of Russia saw the light. In 1845-1848, and then after a break in 1858-1917. The Society published "Readings", which published valuable sources relating to the 16th-18th and 19th centuries (a total of 260 books were published).

The government's awareness of the importance of historical knowledge raised the question of their propaganda and dissemination. In 1728, a bookstore was opened at the Academy of Sciences. By decree of Emperor Alexander I, the duty to publish ancient chronicles was entrusted to the OIDR. Since 1818, the publication of the "Proceedings" of the Academy of Sciences began, which had a special historical and philological section. In 1862-1895. "Notes of the Imperial Academy of Sciences" were published. In connection with the need to publish written sources, the foundations of a special discipline, archaeography, were laid. Since the 1820s, special archeographic expeditions have been carried out to identify documents. An unofficial association of scientists named after its organizer N.P. Rumyantsev - Since 1811, the Rumyantsev circle has been engaged in the search for, description and study of handwritten historical monuments.

Historical periodicals of the 19th century.

The growth of public interest in the knowledge of national history in the first half of the XIX century. led to the fact that many general journals assigned special sections for relevant materials: Vestnik Evropy (1802-1830, editors N.M. Karamzin, then M.T. Kachenovsky), Son of the Fatherland (1812-1825, editor N .I. Grech), “ Domestic notes"(1818-1830, editor P.I. Svinin), "Northern Archive" (1822-1828, editor F.I. Bulgarin), "Moscow Telegraph" (1825-1834, editor N.A. Polevoy), "Contemporary "(1836-1866)," Muscovite "(1841-1856, editor) and others. They published texts of historical sources and printed science articles.

From the middle of the XIX century. Until 1917, several dozen special historical journals appeared in Russia, which were published by individual historians, scientific societies, scientific and educational institutions. Journals published by societies and institutions were printed at public expense and did not go beyond official constructions and estimates. The greatest popularity was gained by magazines designed for a wide range of readers, published by individual historians or book publishers and distributed by subscription. For a long time they published: "Russian Archive" (1863-1912, editor-publisher P.I. Bartenev), "Russian Antiquity" (1879-1918, editor M.I. Semevsky), "Historical Bulletin" (1880-1917, editor S.N. Shubinsky, publisher A.S. Suvorin), "The Past" (1900-1904, editor V.L. Burtsev; 1906-1907, editors V.Ya. Bogucharsky and P.E. Shchegolev). Collections were published more or less regularly, among which the most famous are "Collections of the Russian Historical Society" (from 1867 to 1915 147 volumes were published). Specialized publications also appeared - archaeological, numismatic, ethnographic, military-historical, historical-literary, historical-art studies, etc.

Historical periodicals of the XX century.

After 1917, the publication of some old magazines continued for some time: “Voice of the Past” (1913-1923, editors S.P. Melgunov and V.I. Semevsky) and the publication of the magazine “Byloe” was resumed (1917-1926, editor P.E. . Shchegolev). However, there are many new periodicals, which published sources and scientific articles on issues that previously either did not attract the attention of historians, or did not exist as such. One of the first Soviet historical journals was the Archive of the History of Labor in Russia (1921-1924), which published materials on the history of Agriculture, working conditions, the strike movement. Published from 1922 to 1941 by the Central Archive, the journal Krasny Arkhiv, the largest and most respectable, had the task of publishing archival materials on the pre-revolutionary period in the history of Russia, the Great October Socialist Revolution, the history of the Civil War and foreign intervention, on international relations of modern times, on the history of the Bolshevik Party. The journal Hard Labor and Exile (1921-1935), published by the Society of Convicts and Exiles, published mainly memoirs on the history of the revolutionary movement in Tsarist Russia in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Materials on the history of the labor movement for the same period were published in the journals Proletarian Revolution and Krasnaya Letopis. The All-Russian Association of Oriental Studies published the journal "New East" (1922-1930), which, along with documents, published articles, essays, and notes on the history of the peoples of the Soviet and foreign East. Many documentary sources on the history of Russian culture and social thought in the XVIII - early XX centuries. saw the light on the pages of the periodical Literary Heritage (since 1931). From 1936 to 1954, the Institute of History of the Academy of Sciences published the "Historical Archive" - ​​collections in which sources on socio-economic issues were published with introductory articles and comments. From 1955 to 1962, under the same name, a journal was published that published documents on the history of the USSR.

Along with publications that print primary sources, from the 30s - 40s. 20th century a number of scientific and historical journals were published, the main content of which was research articles. The Marxist Historian (1926-1941), founded as an organ of the Society of Marxist Historians at the Communist Academy (later published as an organ of the Institute of History of the USSR Academy of Sciences), covered issues of national history and the history of foreign countries. The journal is currently published under the title Questions of History. Since 1937, the same institute has been publishing, founded on the initiative of B.D. Grekov's collection "Historical Notes" (118 volumes were published); since 1995, the publication has continued under the auspices of the Department of History of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The extensive publishing base, which was financed by the state, allowed in the 60s - 80s. 20th century to publish special historical journals in significant editions: "History of the USSR" (1957-1992), "New and Contemporary History" (from 1957 to the present), "Questions of the History of the CPSU" and others. In the same years, multi-volume collective labors: "History of the USSR", "World History", "World War II", "The Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945", "Essays on the History of Historical Science in the USSR": according to pre-Soviet historiography in 3 volumes (1955-1963) and on the history of historical science of the Soviet period in 2 volumes (1966, 1984) and others.

From the 90s of the XX century. in historical journals published in Russian Federation, the problematics have changed significantly, which was also reflected in the change of names: “History of the USSR” since 1992 became known as “National History”, and from 2009 to the present it has been published under the name “Russian History”. In the same years, some publishing publications declared continuity with previously published historical journals: a new journal (editor A.A. Chernobaev) was published under the name "Historical Archive" in which sources on a variety of issues are published. There are also new magazines. So “Russian archive. The history of the fatherland in the evidence and documents of the XVIII - XX centuries. (founded in 1991, publisher N.S. Mikhalkov) publishes mainly memoirs and personal correspondence. From 1993 to 2003, as an appendix to the magazine Rodina, the publishing magazine Istochnik. Documents of Russian History”, on the pages of which, with introductory articles and comments, sources extracted from the archives on a wide range of Russian history were published.

A selection of historical books, at this stage mainly on the Slavs, nomads and the ancient peoples of Europe. In the future there will be books on the history of other peoples. The network has many different kinds of libraries, including books on history. Why do you need another one? Soviet and Russian historical science has already accumulated a large amount of literature, the vast majority of which is at best available as scans in an unrecognized form, and most often only in libraries. Thus, a full-text search in these books is impossible in the era of total informatization. At least to a very small extent, we are trying to fill this gap by posting on the site electronic versions of good, in our opinion, historical books.
