The article continues the publication of Valery Bryusov’s journals and for the first tme presents the fragment of the diary of 1891, where Bryusov describes in detail his current affairs. During this period, Bryusov studies at the Polivanov Gymnasium, wrutes poetry and prose, and organizes literary evenings. The first attempts to systematize his own compositions lead to the creation of a series of notebooks “My poems.” In these notebooks, Bryusov wrote down not only his works, but often gave also a biographical notes. These notes are given in the preface to this publication, and poems are indicated in the comments to the journal entries. The authors not only tried to decipher the entire textual material, but also compared the text with the material prepared for publication by the poet’s wife, I.M. Bryusova. The publication is provided with a preface and a detailed historical and literary commentary.
