The edition includes 14 notebooks by P.A. Vyazemsky for 1813-1848, additions from the second (1813-1855), seventh (1828-1833), and thirteenth (1838-1860) notebooks, as well as notes and an index of names. In this edition, the records of Vyazemsky P.A., which have significant literary and historical interest, are published in their original form based on archival materials. "There will be another age when our rotten age rots; the cries of my heart, perhaps, will not be drowned out under the efforts of ignorance, and I will respond to the good and happiest people. I meant little steps on the path of my insignificant being, but a step or two will remain impressed" (From a letter from P. A. Vyazemsky to A. I. Turgenev dated September 3, 1820).
