	Ludvig Holberg & Russia
		The turning point in Fonvizin's life was a performance of "Heinrich and Pernille" he saw in St. Petersburg in 1760, which stimulated his desire to write for the theater.
		Fonvizin's innovation in "The Brigadier" was the inclusion of several themes of social criticism uniquely relevant to Russian society.
		To deny a Holbergian influence at all on Fonvizin is simply not credible, it can only be an issue of degree and not one of existence.

	Abstract (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Denis Fonvizin, however, is an outstanding exception to those who portrayed Western Europe and France as the pinnacle of civilization.
		Fonvizin presents a scathingly sarcastic, critical view of Western Europe, portraying it roughly in the same manner as Western Europe portrayed Eastern Europe: backward, uncivilized, and barbaric.
		Fonvizin juxtaposes the shortcomings of Western Europe with Russia, vehemently claiming the superiority of Russia over Western Europe in terms of civility, morality, culture and education.

		Importantly, in the works of both Karamzin and Fonvizin, establishing themselves within the Grand Tour framework allowed them access to certain qualities of the sophisticated and cosmopolitan European "gentleman." Subversion of the Grand Tour, however, enabled them to make a statement about Russian national identity, or emergent national consciousness.
		As Russian "traveling writers," Fonvizin and Karamzin observe as figures that have a role in creating their nation's perception of itself.
