SKIFY (Scythians), a literary collection. Under A. I. Ivanchin-Pisarev's, Ivanov-Razumnik's, S. D. Mstislavsky's editorship the year 1917 saw a publication of the first of the two released issues, followed in 1918 by the second under A. Bely's, Ivanov-Razumnik's and Mstislavsky's editorship, and published by the Scythians publishing house. The cover was designed by K. S. Petrov-Vodkin. The editorial office was accommodated in the book warehouse that belonged to М. М. Stasyulevich at 28 Fifth Line of Vasilievsky Island. The first issue contained the editor's letter signed Scythians on the opening page and was concluded by Ivanov-Razumnik's program articles Trial by Fire and Socialism and Revolution. The Skify published works of S. A. Esenin (poem Marfa the Mayoress and others), Andrey Bely (novel Kotik Letaev and Others), V. Y. Bryusov, М. М. Prishvin, А. М. Remizov (The Lament of the Downfall of the Russian Land and others), N. A. Klyuev, Е. I. Zamyatin (narrative Islanders) and others. The authors of the collection adhered to the so called Scythian ideology, which implied an ever burning revolutionary zeal in the fight against philistines and the petty bourgeoisie, the search of a new pandemic religious and spiritual (neo-christian) unity and belief in Russia's messianic role in bringing the western and eastern cultures together. The same group of writers, joined after October of 1917 by A. А. Blok, А. P. Chapygin et al., contributed to the literary section of the newspaper Znamya Truda (1917-18) and journal Nash Put (1918) - the Petrograd organ of the leftwing Social-Revolutionaries.
