Abstract
This article is devoted to a little-studied aspect of history, examines the significance of the patriotic book in the lives of the city’s residents and its defenders, and describes the patriotic literature produced in Leningrad during the years of the siege. The study of patriotic blockade publications is an attempt to understand what kind of literature Leningraders stood up to. The appeal to the historical experience of studying the book of the blockade is determined by the growing interest in the Great Patriotic War, and directly to the battles for Leningrad, how our people were able not only to withstand the most difficult trials, but also to defeat the superior forces of almost all of Europe. The work shows how the repertoire of patriotic publications changed, depending on the stages of hostilities. An analysis of patriotic literature is presented. The list of the main patriotic publications in the Besieged city from 1941-1943 is presented.
