The articles proposed in this collection on Russian literature of the 18th century have been written over the past 15 years. Their common goal is to convey at least in a fragmentary form a picture of an intellectual climate in the Russian noble society of the Catherine’s era. In the field of view of the collection are not only Derzhavin and Karamzin as leading authors of that time, but, in certain contexts, and small poets.
Such topics as the cult of kings, war and peace, politics and religion, state and private life, service and leisure are interpreted, the opposite of the "true" and "false" of glory and, finally, death and life in the next world. It is shown that the meaning of these topics was determined not only by the Peter"s tradition and official Christianity, but also by European enlightenment
