Abstract

The article considers relations between A. S. Griboedov’s works (a “younger archaist”, in Yu. N. Tynianov’s terminology) and ideas, emotional modes, and ideologies of “older archaists” (A. S. Shishkov, G. R. Derzhavin). Both parties share their perception of N. M. Karamzin andV. A. Zhukovsky, struggle with Westernism, as well as advocacy for a special way for Russia. At the same time, whereas the “older archaists” drew from the monarchist and serfdom traditions, their younger counterparts (such as Griboedov) saw the special way for Russia in medieval traditions of the city-republics of Novgorod and Pskov.
