It is the first time when the articles of Alfons Paquet are studied in the Russian academic humanities. The articles were being written in Russia for Frankfuter Zeitung newspaper from July till November of 1918. Paquet was the first German journalist, which was allowed an admission to Russia after the country withdrew from the war. His publications are valuable testimonies of the turbulent period of Russian history, helping to understand the European bourgeois intellectuals’ viewpoint on the radical changes in Russian political and social life.
