In this article, we reveal the prerequisites that were needed for the creation, goals and objectives of the journals "Solovyov Studies" and "Russian Philosophy". The role of scientific centers – the Ivanovo Interregional Scientific and Educational Center for the Investigation of V.S. Solovyov's Legacy (Solovyov Seminar) and the St. Petersburg seminar "Russian Thought" - in the formation of journals is emphasized. We show the importance of source studies and publications as the most important condition and prerequisite for a reliable reconstruction of the history of Russian philosophy.
