The rare century has gained as many epithets as the XVIII century: the gallant age, the age of reason, the age of revolutions, the age of enlightenment ... They got used to them, sometimes not noticing their inconsistency. It is difficult to combine the language of exquisite courtesy and bleeding lines of mortal sentences, pastorals, playing out on the scenes, and the action in which the scaffolds were a scaffold or block, and the final was a guillotine, an ax, a stake.
A complex, rebellious age, ending in the French revolution. And other shocks that have changed the world, perennial wars, peasant and national uprisings, the heyday of slave trade, piracy ramps, scandalous adventurers" adventures and at the same time amazing ups of thoughts and talents, immortal creations of geniuses of music, literature, science, famous, complete adventure Travel ... - All this is the 18th century.
The proposed book includes significant personalities who left a deep mark in history, and people, especially known in due time, because the “historical vocabulary” is a worldwide story in faces.
The rulers and commanders, church hierarchs, folk leaders, scientists, thinkers, writers, artists, composers, artists, inventors, adventurers, pirates are the heroes of the book. There are essays in it about the largest events of the era.
Additional materials that accompany the main narrative, as well as illustrations, allowed, as far as possible, to reproduce the unique appearance of the era.
It is quite natural that special attention is paid to domestic history, which is given in most detail, and the lighting of universal history expands the framework of some sections of the course, which in the curriculum gives little space, such as the history of the East.
