V. Proskurina’s book refutes the popular belief that in Russia in the second half of the 18th century, turning to the images and subjects of classical antiquity only obscured the content of cultural and political reality, and was a formal tribute to belated classicism. The author explores how ancient myths were reinterpreted and used in the era of Catherine II to establish and strengthen the Empire and its ideology.
