Kievlianin

a reactionary-monarchist newspaper published in Kiev from 1864 to 1919; it came out three times a week until 1879 and then daily. The newspaper reflected the interests of Russian landowners in the Ukraine and was subsidized by the tsarist government. The historian V. Ia. Shul’gin was the founder of the paper. D. I. Pikhno, economist and professor of the University of Kiev, who later headed the Kiev section of the Black Hundreds’ League of the Russian People, became the editor of Kievlianin in 1878. The publication of Kievlianin was interrupted in January 1918 but was resumed during the Denikin occupation of Kiev from August to December 1919, under the editorship of V. V. Shul’gin.
