The purpose of this paper is to examine critically the debate on the concept of satire among 18th-century Russian satirical journals, mainly Vsyakaya Vsyachina and Truten’. To this end, we will examine the nature and role of the satire of the 18th century Russia and analyze two separate concepts of satire of those journals. In particular, we will focus on the social role of satire and the aesthetic mechanism of satire in journals. In conclusion, the satire of those times was a melting pot of genre and social systems, and they contributed to the development of prose in the 1770-80s.
