Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes records from the notebooks of F. M. Dostoevsky (RGB. F. 93.I.2.6, 93.I.2.7, 93.I.2.8) that the writer kept in 1860 - 1865 in parallel with the publication of the journals “Time” and “Epoch”. Some of these records still remain undeciphered or were deciphered inaccurately, others have no comments. The article presents the results of attempts to read the individual records, taking into account the characteristics of the writer’s handwriting, and also it offers comments that complement the comments to the first publication of his books in the 83rd volume of “The Literary heritage” (1971) and later in the 20th volume of the Complete works of F. M. Dostoevsky compiled in 30 volumes (1980). The Identification and study of these records as a part of the notebooks and diaries Dostoevsky will allow us to cover more in detail the busy life of the writer during the period of his editorial activity in the magazines “Time” and “Epoch”, as well as to understand the type of his work as a writer and journalist. The topic of the article needs further study and is of polemical character.
