The book includes two artistic texts that occupy a different place in the history of Russian literature: 1) "On the damage to morals in Russia" by Prince M. Shcherbatov, 2) "Journey" by A. Radishchev. Prince Shcherbatov and A. Radishchev represent two extreme views of Russia since the time of Catherine. Sad sentries at two different doors, like Janus, look in opposite directions. Shcherbatov, turning away from the dissolute palace of this time, looks at the door into which Peter I ascended and behind it sees the official, swaggering Moscow Russia - the boring and semi-wild life of our ancestors - seems to the disgruntled old man to be some kind of lost ideal.
