Description Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky (1821–1881), unlike other Russian writers of the 19th century, never wrote his memoirs but he put them into A Writer’s Diary—a publi- cation that first came out as a part of Grazhdanin (The Citizen) magazine, later as an independent periodical. Based on A Writer’s Diary, we defined six types of memoirs: 1. memories of social events (a criminal case of an abused child), 2. memories of the family circle (brother Mikhail Mikhailovich, nanny Alena Frolovna), 3. memories of important personalities (N. Nekrasov, V. G. Belinsky or I. S. Turgenev), 4. memories of important life moments (Dostoyevsky’s meeting with the Decembrist wives, two reminiscences from the story The Peasant Marey, prisoner abuse in prison), 5. memories of places (Ems, Florence), 6. minor reminiscences (memories of childhood friends, cruelty to a mare, lawsuit). In the study, we dealt with these types of memoirs from the genre and thematic point of view, we stated connections to the biography and links to the writer’s work.
