«Phenix» publishers was founded in May 1990 when its main establisher,
the Russian language publishers «Atheneum» in Paris decided to move
from France to Russia. The most important spheres of activity of
«Phenix» are search and annotated publications of original source
documents on the political, social and cultural history of Russia in
the XIX-XX centuries. The documents are published in almanacs,
collections and as separate books.

Memoirs, diaries and letters as well as official documents found in
State and private archives, form for the most part the contents of
the volumes that have already came out. Modern historical studies
published by «Phenix» are based on the same archive materials.

The themes of publications are rather broad in scope: religion, science,
painting, literature, theatre, political repressions, resistance,
revolutions, wars, politics etc. Special series are dedicated to
biographies, the history of separate regions, emigration. Well-known
slavic scholars Richard Davis, John Malmstad, Richard Pipes and Marc
Raeff contribute to the publishers. Since 1995 a periodical of modern
prose, poetry and critics «Postscriptum» has been published, as well
as the poetical series «Masterskaya».
