Until 1839 it came out weekly, afterwards twice a month, subsequently monthly. The founder of the Syn Otechestva, N. I. Grech was the journal's publisher in 1812-37, and edited the periodical until 1839, F. V. Bulgarin - co-published the journal from 1825 until 1837, and co-edited it until 1839), followed in the publishing function by А. F. Smirdin (1837-42.), and consecutively edited by N. А. Polevoy (1838-40), А. V. Nikitenko (1840-42), publishing editor K. P. Masalsky (1842-52). In 1820-21 A. F. Voykov was actively involved in the journal's activities. In 1813-18 the journal released two supplements devoted to the European politics, which distinguished the Syn Otechestva from the rest of the Russian journals of the time. In 1829 the journal merged with Bulgarin's Severny Arkhiv and until 1835 appeared under the name Syn Otechestva i Severny Arkhiv, they were printed in Grech's printing-house (13 Bolshaya Morskaya Street; later changed the whereabouts). In 1812-15 the Syn Otechestva made the events of the Patriotic War of 1812, campaigns of 1813-14 and 1815, and fight with Emperor Napoleon its focal point. Until the mid-1820s it enjoyed the reputation of a liberal publication. K. N. Batyushov, V. A. Zhukovsky, Alexander Pushkin, Denis Davydov, Е. А. Baratynsky, F, N, Glinka, А. А. Bestuzhev, K. F. Ryleev, V. K. Kuchelbecker, А. I. Odoevsky, N. I. Gnedich, А. S. Griboedov, P. А. Vyazemsky were the journal's staff contributors. After 1825 the editorial board took a conservative stand. The 1840s marked the decline phase of the Syn Otechestva, the attempt to reorganise it on the model of the Biblioteka dlya Chteniya, failed. References: Березина В. Г.
