The article touches upon the Early Modern practices of reading, which are subject of much debate in contemporary scholarship. The traditional image of man’s reading before the 18th century implied serious approach to books and the use of information found there for self-education, self-edification, and acquisition of social prestige. The analysis of the diary by Samuel Papys (1660-1669), a Navy Office clerk, demonstrates that this ideal model did not have considerable effect on representations of the experience of reading in texts that constructed a “story of self”. Not only the practices of reading varied greatly, but the category chosen by Pepys to define this experience was the category of pleasure directly linked to the “self-image” under construction.

The image of Minerva appeared in Russian emblematics to-gether with cultural reforms of Peter the Great, marking the early stage of Russian enlightenment. In the period of women's rule, this image was identified with a symbol of a virtuous empress, patron-ess of arts and sciences, giving hope for reasonable rule. The name of "Russian Minerva" was traditionally applied to both Catherines, Anna Ioannovna, and Elizaveta Petrovna. Yet another one, and worthier of its mythological prototype, remains forgotten — the one that contemporaries called the mother of Russia. Princess Na-talya Alekseevna, granddaughter of Peter I, inherited many positive qualities of her great grandfather. One of the most educated women of the epoch of palace upheavals, the patroness of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, she was a muse and mentor of her young imperial brother. Reason came to the Russian court as a temptation little-known earlier, thus creating an attractive model of Russia's future. However, the later move of Peter II's court to Moscow radically changed the Princess's social and psychological status. Mind gave way to feelings, which led to the rapid and untimely death of Princess — a unique and premature phenomenon of the Russian “dark era”.

The article presents an introduction to a first Russian translation of the “Life of Lady Falkland” written in the mid-17th century by the nuns of the English Benedictine Abbey at Cambrai (the Cary sisters), which told the life of their mother, Elizabeth Cary, Viscountess of Falkland – a translator, poet and polemicist, and also a Catholic convert. It has been argued that the “Life” combines the traits of biography and conversion story, and that the conversions described there – of Lady Falkland and her children fell into the category of the so-called “intellectual conversions” brought about by reading books and debating the fine points of religious doctrines. “Intellectual conversions’ were seen to be reserved to men. However, the Cary sisters used this model to establish their position within the Cambrai religious community, which consisted of many nuns with wide intellectual interests. The authors of the “Life” also demonstrated that intellectual efforts of their mother led to conversions of others to Catholicism, thus making her a Catholic missionary in all but a name.
