About

Izvestiya RAN. Seriya literatury i yazyka (The Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Studies in Literature and Language), founded in 1852 by Academician Izmail I. Sreznevsky, is the oldest academic journal in Russia for scholars of philology.

As the official journal of the Division of Historical and Philological Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences (in Russian, ОИФН РАН), Izvestiya RAN. Seriya literatury i yazyka (The Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Studies in Literature and Language) is committed to carrying on the Russian philological traditions while seeking to publish innovative research.

The journal offers papers on aspects of literary and linguistic studies, including discussions of fundamental philological works, review articles and chronicles, and transactions of the Division of Historical and Philological Studies of the RAS. One of the journal’s main sections is devoted to resurrection of undeservedly disregarded events from the history of philological scholarship in our country.
