Abstract

The Literary Gazette is the most influential literary newspaper of the Soviet Union and is still active in the Russian newspaper world. It is a successful media practice widely recognized by readers as the official publication of the Soviet Union. The Literary Gazette was originally an official publication of the Council of the Soviet Writers Association aimed at guiding the creation of Soviet writers and its readers were the writer groups in the narrow sense. However, it took the Great Patriotic War as an opportunity with its editing strategy gradually tilting towards readers and actively innovated the form and enriched the content, so that the newspaper contained diversified content featuring social issues. This is the most prominent feature of The Literary Gazette of the Soviet Union, which is also the secret of its success in the newspaper industry.
