Voprosy literatury was founded in 1957, soon after the 20th Congress of the Communist party of the Soviet Union and the beginning of the era known as the "thaw" in USSR cultural life. It soon evolved into a major discussion platform for literary critics and scholars.

For many years Voprosy literatury has been offering its readers articles on the history of world and Russian literature, theory of literature and current literary and cultural situation in the country.
