The history of the creation of the Imperial Public Library for more than two centuries has continued to excite researchers of Russian culture., Monographs have been created dedicated to the figures who stood at the head of the emerging Library in the first years of its creation in the late 18th – early 19th centuries. Meanwhile, the figure of Mikhail Ivanovich Antonovsky, a writer, historian, translator, one of the most enlightened people of that time, remained outside the sphere of attention for many years. He was destined to live and create in a difficult time of Russian history – during the time of N. I. Novikov, A. N. Radishchev, the spread of Freemasonry in Russia, the government’s reaction to the Great French Revolution, during the reign of three emperors – Catherine II, Paul I and Alexander I, who understood in different ways the role and place of the national library that was being created, to fight foreign dominance in it, to prevent its plundering and disbandment.
