Abstract
The article deals with the situation in St. Petersburg journalism in the mid-1820s. The author considers the relationship of the publisher of the journal “Otechestvennye Zapiski” (The national notes) P.P. Svinyin with liberal metropolitan journalists: F.V. Bulgarin, K.F. Ryleev, A.E. Izmailov, etc. The article analyzes the impact of the Decembrist uprising on journalism, the changes that occurred in the journal landscape following the arrest of K.F. Ryleev and writers close to him. As a source for describing the changes that have taken place, Svinyin’s letter to the military historian and publicist A.I. Mikhailovsky-Danilevsky is given.
