| Summary: | The nation of Russian Europeans in French Rossica of the 18th-early 19th century (Charles Masson, Madame de Staël, Jacques Acelot’s)
The article is a historiosophic analysis of the mentality of the nation of Russian European thinkers: Aleksander Masson and Wissarion Bieliński, contrasted with the memoirs of French Rossica of the 18th and early 19th century (Charles Masson, Madame de Staël, Jacques Acelot’s), myths and stereotypes. Apart from brutal disillusions of the Russian mirage of Peter I and Catherine II’s epoch revealing barbaric faces of young Russian nation in the process of cultural transformation of these national heterostereotypes and assessments of Russian nation in both Russian Europeans themselves may seem surprising.
