This book seeks to establish the degree to which Gallicisms
permeated the Russian language in the eighteenth century. The
largest group of borrowings were the semantic and phraseological
calques. In order to examine this influence, the author has
selected scores of examples from the original works, translations
and correspondence of Russian writers from the 1730s to the end of
the century. The calques analysed belong to various registers of
the literary language, from the prose used in essays and
correspondence to the most lyrical form found in poetry and certain
translations. This book concludes that the French influence was
overwhelming and fully enhanced the Russian literary language that
was developed during this period.
