This study draws on Russian historical accounts, folklore and the arts to demonstrate how the image of Peter has reflected the changing cultural values of Russian people.The image of Peter the Great casts a long shadow in modern Russian thought and culture. As important to modern Russia as the French Revolution is to France and the Reformation is to Germany, the image of this militaristic ruler, founder of St Petersburg, and czar of all Russia from 1689-1725 has been central to Russian history, literature, and art since the early 1700's. Riasanovsky, one of the foremost historians of Russia, traces the development of this image from 1700 to the present. Drawing examples from Russian historical accounts, literature, folklore, and the arts, he shows how the use of the image of Peter has reflected the changing cultural and political values of the Russian people.RussiaHistory17th centurySoviet UnionIntellectual lifeElectronic books.947Riasanovsky Nicholas V(Nicholas Valentine),1923-2011.218878MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450447103321The image of Peter the Great in Russian history and thought2145333UNINA
