[ Love heresies : From the life of Russian knights]
St. Petersburg: Pushkinskii Fond, 2002 Serie: Byloi Peterburg. Vremena i Nravy ISBN: 5898030905 (Kn. 7) Language: Russian
This book is about Napoleon`s peers in Russia who made a radical change in the spiritual life of their country. A new generation of Russian nobility established an unusual code of knightly behavior and system of values: they value the personal intimate world; prefer autocracy to a representative social system; support the liberties of the nobility, but not political freedom; choose the noble code of honor instead of the constitution, and so on. This book tells the story of these people and their influence on the Russian society. Over 80 illustrations.
