Abstract. Antiquity continues to serve as a timeless model of true art, with creators still drawing inspiration from the great Greek and Roman classics centuries later. This paper examines the utilization of ancient plots and images in works from the 1820s, as referenced in the Mnemosyne almanac published by Vladimir Odoevsky and Wilhelm Kuchelbecker. By employing comparative and statistical methods, the study reveals that despite the growing influence of romanticism, antiquity continued to be a significant reference point bridging different epochs and cultures.
Keywords: themes of antiquity, imagery of antiquity, reception of antiquity, periodical, Society of the Wisdom Lovers, Mnemosyne almanac
