Questions
What do we know about the world of ideas of the average Ukrainian of the 18th century? What is known about the perception of contemporary political events, processes, and personalities? Most of the currently known sources are unable to shed light on these issues.
However, there are texts with the help of which it is possible to reconstruct unique manifestations of the worldview of the “little” person of that era. These are documents of the political investigation institutions of the Moscow Kingdom and the Russian Empire. They were entrusted with the function of supervision, prosecution, and investigation of so-called political crimes – any attempts at dissent or manifestations of opposition to the existing order.
Among the objects of such “special services” at the beginning of the 18th century. were “Mazepinists”, as well as all those who spoke disrespectfully about monarchists, the policy of the empire aimed at the destruction of the Hetmanate.
Most of the statements, the authors of which were subjected to repression, are living evidence of the era, a vivid manifestation of national identity.
