 UNESCO Courier: Paradise in 4338? - year 4338 - Dreams and realities
When describing his novel Numa, or Flourishing Rome, Mikhail Matveevich Kheraskov wrote as follows: "This story is not absolutely true historically.
Kheraskov sadly notes that his story will have hardly any impact, but "if there is no happy society on Earth let it at least exist in books and afford us the consolation that we too can be happy one day".
The true glory of a sovereign, he says, "is not always won with weapons...for the triumphant cries of the victors are often accompanied by the lamentations of widows and orphans".

 Russia Engages the World - NYPL
In Catherine’s reign, Mikhail Kheraskov (1733–1807) wrote Russia’s first national epic; Nikolai Novikov (1744–1818) established the private book trade; and the verse of Gavriil Derzhavin (1743–1816) and the stories of Nikolai Karamzin (1766–1826) laid the foundations for the golden ages of poetry and prose that made Russian culture so celebrated in the 19th century.
The empress herself wrote plays, fables, memoirs, journal articles, a history of Kievan Rus’, and countless letters to philosophes ; she let it be known that she read the poetry and prose that appeared in print and encouraged a public dialogue with authors about the literary and political issues of the day.
Throughout the 18th and well into the 19th century, the increasing size, military might, and level of civilization of the Russian Empire stood in bold contrast to the ulcer of serfdom.

 Russian Literature
Rossiyada (written 1771-79; "The Rossiad"), an epic by Mikhail Kheraskov, is a rather stilted effort that proved a literary dead end.
Although the theatrical repertoire in the late 18th and early 19th centuries continued to be dominated by translations and adaptations, numerous, if not very distinguished, tragedies were written by Sumarokov, Kheraskov, Vladislav Ozerov, and others.
Derzhavin, who also served as a governor and as Catherine's personal secretary, exemplifies the tendency of 18th-century writers to pursue government careers, a practice that was almost unthinkable a century later.
