Abstract

This article is a selective survey of the news reporting in nineteenth and early twentieth‐century émigré periodicals, which forms part of a larger bibliographical study of the émigré press before 1905. The journals discussed here are those which printed news reports from within the Russian Empire. These news reports took a variety of forms and came from many places in the Empire, as well as from sources in emigration. In spite of the problems of timeliness and distribution, the reportage in the émigré press must have provided an important source of news to those living under conditions of censorship.
