Abstract

The article is written with consideration of socio-cultural and historical context of the epoch based on personological, quantitative and thematic analysis of articles published in the collections of "Siberian Living Antiquity" — first post-revolutionary periodical on ethnography in the USSR. The main goal is to identify materials that can be used as sources for studying the history of Russian folkloristics in Siberia in the XNUMXs. Selected articles are systematized, annotated and placed in the index. High research and publication activity of Irkutsk folklorists testified to the time of the rise and flowering of regional Siberian folklore, and the contribution of its largest scientists (M. K. Azadovsky and G. S. Vinogradov) seems to be very significant not only for regional science, but also for Russian folkloristics in general.
