The biography of the "first Russian revolutionary", as Alexander Nikolayevich Radishchev was called in Soviet historiography, has always attracted close public attention. This is indeed a tragic figure in our history. But it is still unclear: why exactly did he publish his main book - "Journey from Petersburg to Moscow", which called for the overthrow of the government, and even at the time of the bombardment of the Northern Capital by the Swedish squadron? Did he seek to transfer the French Revolution to domestic soil? To cause a revolt? To tell contemporaries about the "deplorable state of the peasant class"? Or was so absorbed in his own suffering that he did not notice the cannonade, from which the windows of the house shook? These and many other questions concerning Radishchev's biography and the peculiarities of the birth of a Europeanized intellectual stratum in Imperial Russia are answered by the author of the book - historian and writer Olga Eliseeva.
